  • Signal for radio lighting

    Hello to each other, since Thursday I finally have an MP3-capable radio in the moose. I got the double-DIN mounting frame from Volvo as well as the matching ISO and antenna adapter. The conversion was a bit fuzzy, but on the whole possible. What bothers me a little bit now: The radio (JVC-G721) has a dimmer automatic, which switches the display brighter or darker depending on the lighting. Only on the ISO adapter the corresponding cable is not occupied. Is it because Volvo doesn’t have the signal in the radio supply lines or is my adapter junk? Could you pick up the signal somewhere (air conditioning system control?)? Is the corresponding information available if you install the CAN module (name is missing to me)? Uli

  • Red warning light and battery indicator flashes randomly

    Hello I have a Volvo v70 2.5 station wagon. I had problems with the alternator. This was broken and a factory town has built in a new one. After that everything worked and the car ran again perfectly. After about 2-3 weeks the red warning light and the battery sign lit up in the stand at the traffic light. when I started driving the display was gone again immediately. So I didn’t really think about it. The problem came open again and again and I went back to the factory The factory town meant that the problem happens by chance so again and again they can not really test it and I should not think about it because it only occurs in the stand. Well, the answer is not really satisfactory. I’m not even sure if the WErkstadt has tested anything. But well. My question now I can find out for myself what this problem is or test anything to find out the mistake?

  • Odd driving behaviour after wheel change

    Dear community! It’s kind of strange: Since I’ve been back on my 850 summer pitches, my moose has been following every track groove, so strong that I often have to correct it. I am currently driving Dunlop Sport Response in size 205/50 VR16 on Columba. Last winter I drove Continental Wintercontact in size 185/65 TR15. I have been driving the summer Dunlops as well as the winter Contis for several years. Last summer I had a second S atz summer pellet with Hancook 205/55 VR16 on Persus. I didn’t notice anything with them either. This year I wanted to run the Columbas with Dunlop again. An acquaintance had the car on stage and could not notice a game on the crossbars. Also, the steering has no game. What can that be? I don’t imagine that? Addendum: The crossbars (of Febi) were changed in 2012

  • 300% more expensive parts in the Volvo car dealership?

    Moin values moose owner. I bought 2 weeks ago used v70 2.5T 231 hp from private, but when driving from the farm came 2 messages: ABS/DSTC TYPE REQUIREMENTS AND LIGHT DETERMINATION CAPITAL So I go back and he says: “No, let this be done at volvo, I still pay that.” All clear, according to self diagnosis (icarsoft) an ABS sensor at the front right. But as discussed I drive to Volvo Autohaus Lauff and I almost drop the chinlade down…. orstroke from Volvo: 800€ among other things almost 300€ for a front wheel scar 75€ for the sensor. Is that normal? I screw on my cars actually, but since we have the agreement I drove to the car dealership. So my question is really whether something like this is normal, you are completely undressed… Thanks already for your experiences, nice Wednesday evening still

  • Strong roll-off noise after crossbar change

    Hello together. Well, I would need your help/your advice again. Yesterday I changed the handlebar at the front left. The whole thing was relatively easy, but I had to knock the joint out of the clamp. It was quite rusty. I know that you can only tighten the screws of the handlebar when the vehicle is back on the ground (loaded) Anyway, I only made the left side. I wanted to do the right side next week. Yesterday I didn’t do any, I thought it was unnecessary. Today I went off to do something. From about 25-30 km/h I heard a roll-off noise which became louder with increasing speed. Strangely I hear the sound from the front right (I had worked on the left) It sounds like a completely broken (grounding) wheel bearing. In addition, a kind of grinding noise is to be heard. Similar to when you no longer have a lining on the brake blocks and thereby rub metal on metal. S It’s strange, the noise is only heard when the vehicle rolls more or less. It’s gone when the vehicle is strong and braking. If the vehicle rolls and you drive snake lines, the noise changes, similar to a broken wheel bearing. I’m, frankly, perplexed. Think of me as a savvy screwdriver, have also learned car mechanics, but here I can’t make a rhyme, because before repairing the crossbar everything was tiptop. Greetings, Jan

  • Change control panel heating

    Hello together! Has anyone ever had to replace the control panel of the heater? Do I really have to expand the dashboard or is there a simpler way? My problem is that the left turn switch has gone away and can no longer be regulated. I have been able to move the Bowden train so far after the radio has been expanded that the heating is no longer heated (to be recommended in summer), but for the unfortunately approaching winter a working heating is not to be despised. H at by chance someone else left a control panel? Thank you, Markus

  • V 70 Mj. 98 bought without hand transmitter ZV, incorporated used parts from other moose?

    Hello, my 1998y XC got last year with three (almost not sticky) keys, but unfortunately without remote controls for the central locking. The previous owner had disposed of them, because they did not work anymore. Now I had thought to buy one or two new ones with the friendly one, but shy away from the costs. Besides the approx. 130,– for a hand transmitter there are also costs for the learning, and the journey to the nearest CONSUCHABLE Volvo partner is r And then there is still a (my assessment nch low) residual risk that another part of my ZV (receiver) is broken. Could one possibly use a complete, used unit from a butcher? -So a functional unit that worked before incl. receiver? -Or does something have to be learned at the friendly one? Greetings Chris

  • Did it catch me with the camshaft sensor now?

    Hello. Since Friday my V70 has been bouncing around again. He had it before. At that time I suspected the spark plugs. But now I can exclude them. Anyway, the problem is like an extreme early ignition. I orgle, the engine ignites too early and works against the starter. Then it needs some revolutions until the engine finally starts. Then it runs on 3-4 cylinders. The starter is really difficult. If the engine then turns over 4000u/min everything is chic. The next time it runs normally in the stationary gas. Can this be the camshaft sensor ? Andi

  • Oil filter housing lid – small seal inside

    Hello all, at my Volvo V70 T5 VEA (2015) I tried to change the small internal seal in the lid of the oil filter case, too. However, it was impossible to use the new seal, since the movable (apparently spring-bearing) outer shaft could not be pressed back accordingly. Therefore, I then assembled the whole thing without this small sealing ring. A new oil filter cover is already ordered, so that all of this again its Ric My question would now be, what is this seal intended for inside and if I can still drive safely with the vehicle until another exchange? At least no oil comes outside. Unfortunately, I did not take a photo of the part, but found a picture of a lid on the Internet and marked the place where the said seal sits red. Many greetings!

  • Switching…

    Hello moose driver… I am thinking of buying an XC 90… should become a sum or momentum from year 2007 (for the executive the Euros are missing); 2.5 liter diesel with automatic; AHK with level compensation and ISO-Fix are mandatory! Question to the municipality: – What must I pay attention to when buying? – What problems can come to me with the automatic transmission? (in so far only switches driven!!!!!) – How are the alternating intervals for the timing belt? – What equipment is it? What are the typical flaws? – What are the typical flaws in the electrical system??? (e.g. door contact switch…. ha,ha I already know of the XC70(1st series)) I am grateful for answers and thoughts…… Until the days
