  • XC60 BJ 2011 – Coolant disappears/cooks + pressure on hose!!

    Hello dear community, I bought the following Volvo: XC60 I 2.0 – D3/D4 – 163PS – Diesel First registration 2011 Unfortunately I bought the car from a fraudster (KM stand was turned down from over 300tsd to 110tsd). The car is still running great, but I have the following problem (date at Volvo partner workshop only from 26 July possible!!!): When driving lights up from time to time that cooling water is low and the car should be parked immediately. However, the Then suddenly again. If you stop, a lot of pressure has always been on the hose. The level of the water was then always below minimum. When carefully opening the lid of the cooling water, then always air came out, so air pulls and has a pressure. Then the stand goes up again to almost maximum. Meanwhile, however, the water also cooks extremely, which is why we worry. This time he also loses cooling water, so that we always refill. Has someone with it already He What could it be about? Should you wait for Volvo? Is it worth a repair, since the car actually only has a value of 2-3 thousand euro(?)? Maybe I can find someone who has a little more information about my problem. Thank you!

  • Volvo V60 roof rack without railing (Pro & Contra)

    Hello everyone, I have to get a new V60 😉 In the meantime there are a lot of day registrations on the market. Many of them no longer have roof rails. I transport very often 2 kayaks on the car roof in the summer. The dealers think that all this would be no problem, even without railing with the original roof racks of Volvo (see picture). Has someone already had experience in this regard and there was any damage to the roof or paint??? Greeting Pit

  • Axle sensor/giver for xenon light range control

    Hello Elchgemeinde. If you had a question about the encoder for the lighting range regulation (charge dependent) for Xenon lighting. The reason for my question is this: Drive an XC90 with level regulation and have no problem with the lighting system, but I suspect that this sensor/donor could have a combination function for the lighting range regulation and could also be responsible for the load-dependent braking force distribution on the rear axle. Only no one could help me so far (large shoulder shrugs also at the friendly) Also the circuit plan allows no conclusions in this regard. The fact is that the rear brake discs in normal operation (without constantly driving around with the half house stand in the area) do not freebrake and just rot over time. So now you are on it !!!!!!!

  • Standard radio shaft for XC90

    Hello forum, the question is already in the subject! Is there the possibility to install a standard radio shaft in the XC90! Greeting ahauha

  • 1. XC90 failure (engine)

    Hi! So far after half a year and 16,000 km he has done quite well, except for minor defects (radio, door lock -> after 2 workshop stays with a new car but still annoyingly), but that he no longer accepted gas today is not really gratifying. Unfortunately the top speed was only about 30 km/h. Especially since he was in the workshop until yesterday (also because of the message “motor system maintenance required”. And unfortunately the whole was also 150 km away from his carport. The man of Volvo arrived after only three quarters of an hour, but… – he wanted us to be towed to a workshop even further away from our place of residence. There we would have had a rental car, but had to bring it back by ourselves after the repair 🙁 (unfortunately, however, we can not follow our schedule according to our car, and sometimes quickly 3 hours “drive through the area” – in the closer workshop we were not allowed to go The whole thing was done so that after a few blows (whereever) and after five minutes of “sampling” he decided that he wanted to spend his weekend at home and everything worked again as before! Tomorrow he is allowed to become a friendly again, let’s see what turns out then….

  • Kaufberatung – V70 III with how much km mileage is still acceptable for less than 10,000 €

    Friends of the Swedish long-distance runners, sometimes a question in the round, which can of course hardly be answered at all: I am looking for a V70 III for less than 10,000 €. In any case I imagine a diesel, D3 or D4, but I am flexible. Like momentum upwards. Apart from outliers, they all have between 175,000 km and 225,000 km on the clock. Of course, the engine may have just entered there, but chassis etc have it all on the hump. There is not necessarily any wear and tear with care and maintenance. In the end, used cars were advised to buy at most with 125,000 kilometers running… In short: What do you think?

  • Volvo 850 serious problems and no one knows a solution, help 🙁

    Hello, I have a 144 ps, 2.5 gasoline/automatic of 96 with 180000 km and a big problem. The engine runs in empty run a bit unround, it vibrates in time and in between it sounds as if it is going out, but it lives up again and vibrates in this moment. this between vibrating you notice clearly in the inside room and annoyed. Speed is however constant and does not wobble, whereby I think that the even in the warm state is a little too high and maybe it helps to find fault, which lies between 900 and 1000 rpm! Otherwise the car drives well and you have no problems, top speed 196 km/h with automatic, consumption always around 10 liters, also on the highway with 160 km/h cruising speed. Made: Oil trap cleaned, hoses renewed from the oil trap, vacuum hoses renewed, hoses of the intake tract renewed, Drosel flap cleaned, Kat New, end pot New! Furthermore I have a question: at exactly 2000 rpm br Is my car really loud, but only at 2000, under and above it is quiet, can it lie on the new cat or is something else defective? Greetings

  • Presentation of new forum member

    Hello, since I am an enthusiastic V70 owner since today I would like to introduce myself and the Volvo briefly. Come from the area Weinheim. Picked up the car today from the dealer. I can not recommend this dealer. Vehicle was dirty and placed with 1.5 bar on all tires. Shortly before handover came a call “could not wait, key lies on the rear wheel” Did today first clean the car and some scratches out. Urgent to renew are the dampers. In addition, there was only one single key, second key is also ordered. Timing belts are also urgently to be renewed since from 2008, even if only 70000km ran. The car is simply great, alone the starting noise… Had to start for my 5 year old son several times in a row today and give gas, this was enthusiastic. Unfortunately, the previous owner neglected the car extremely, the attached TÜV report speaks volumes. The sentence “Korro “I’m a little afraid of sion/rusting on the underbody, frames and attachments.” Here’s another photo, tomorrow in the sun more will follow. Be sure to get annoyed with some questions. The first: how to hell do I put the rear headrests higher? These snap back again and again.

  • Speed fluctuations on cold engine

    Moin Moin my dear friends, I have already used the SuFu but did not find a satisfactory answer to my question. My problem is this: On cold engine my car has speed fluctuations in idle, it varies between 800-950 revolutions, it does so until it is really warm, i.e. about 10-15 km. On warm engine it does not do it. What has already been done against the speed fluctuations or is new: -Lambdasonde new -DK clean t -Zündkerzen neu -Motor sprayed with brake cleaner, but no change in speed What would your tips be that I could check next? Errors in the FS are not stored. I would like to check the DK again because the in the V70 yes Kaka should be, how do I do it best? With a tester? If so, which? What values should come out of it? Further it could be the idle controller? If yes, would it not have to cause speed fluctuations on warm motor? It acts around a V70 I 2.4 140hp with 5 gear Aut EZ 2000 Oh yes, I almost forgot, he has a low cracker than if it would come from the hydros, maybe there is something known or has to do with my problem? I thank you very much for your great help!!!!! Gruss Toni

  • Engine support, well……..slips

    The 2,4T likes to destroy the upper motor support bearing….at least you need one every 2 years. Whether it is due to the “toll” OT quality or not, I have got such a Kunsstoffteile, and that is built in. Should be so super toll. (Well with the transverse handlebars, which is not the case, rather the absolute garbage) Now after about a week I think, what here load changes always knocks. And see as on the pictures that the part slips back and forth. I can’t pull the first one, because there is also a metal/support and discharge roller/hull in between. What now? A crown ring on the left and right, will not work wonders. Somehow funny, that this slips over? Wanted to look at the other engine bearings, but unfortunately you don’t see them so great. It’s called, that you can open a lid on the passenger side, in the wheel box and there you see one. No lid found there?
