  • Interest in VOLVO

    Hello dear Volvo community! I’m currently looking for a new vehicle. I’ve often seen S60 and S80 mobile. (Bj. um 2002) Unfortunately I don’t know about Volvo at all! The engine variant I’ve been interested in 250 hp or 272 hp (T5 ; T6) What do the Volvos have for drive concepts. Is this with four-wheel drive? How good are the automatic transmissions? Is there a page in the network about technical data about the models? What’s the difference between S60 and S80? Don’t worry.

  • Detail images of the XC90 Executive

    Hello together, I had announced (threatened????) that I will have a few more detailed pictures of the executive. Today the weather was quite nice, so I could finally snap. Who is still in front of the purchase decision and would like another picture, please send me a PN. I will take this into account in the next shooting So, what do you start with? Well, with the back part… Greeting xc90er … whose own back part is significantly smaller.

  • Too little load!

    Hello the following problem. I bought a 750 kg unbraked trailer from Humbaur. I assumed that the V70 I could pull that. Unfortunately, I had to find out afterwards that only a trailer load of 500 kg is entered in my vehicle license. At a braked 1600 kg. I was with Volvo today and they didn’t even want to believe that that was true. They couldn’t help me and were fading about wrong papers. So there are no papers for loading. ? My trailer coupling is from Auto Hak. This is only up to 1900 kg. Otherwise this should be based on the respective vehicle specifications. However, I did not get an ABE either, which is only not subject to registration. According to mobile.de the V70 I Bj. 99 has a trailer load with unbraked of 750 kg. What now? Does the way to the Tüv actually remain? Only if I have no clearance how should they help me. Bzw enter?

  • Volvo XC60 (2011) New front fender

    Hello together, with my XC60 (2011) both fenders are through and therefore have to be renewed. Original costs after all a wing 450€. Do I have to use original goods at this age or can I also take one of Skandix there costs only 180€. I mean to have read that with third-party manufacturers the gap dimensions do not fit at all. Does anyone have any experience with Skandix fenders or another brand? For example, with the Autospengler I would be about 1,200€ (B Eide Wings of Skandix + Work) does that come about?https://www.skandix.de/…/ Thank you.

  • Moose will die – what now?

    Hello dear community, unfortunately a sad post and perhaps the last time I ask for your help. I was just with my moose at the Volvo dealer who unfortunately made the probably fatal diagnosis: loss of compression pressure, gasoline in the oil. Last week I stayed the first time, but the ADAC could not really help, now this diagnosis. I only got the car good 3 months, my first car… In the hope to do nothing wrong with Swedish steel and that the gan I bought this car and at the end I was sadly disappointed. TÜV 5 days ago, new tyres 1000km ago, all kinds of small stuff… To my question: What do I do now with the car? He still drives, that’s why I also drove home from the dealer, now he parks in the side street. Can I still sell it as a part dispenser? How much is it worth and how long can such a thing take (can it take because of the St. And does it make sense to sell at least the tyres individually on Alufelge? I hope for your help and some valuable tips, because honestly I have no idea what to do now… Still to the vehicle data: V70 2.5 10V (144PS) Year of construction 99

  • V70 III: Opening/closing the tailgate cracks in warm weather

    Hello! With my V70 III I noticed that the (electric) tailgate makes strange cracking/snarling noises during opening and closing in warm weather … maybe similar to a not well oiled hinge. This usually occurs when the sun has heated up the black car and thus also the mechanics of the tailgate well. In cold and covered sky it cracks very little. Do you have an idea where this could come from? I tap on the gas pressure springs … and less on the engine for the tailgate. Or what do you mean? Greetings KarlJohann

  • Which coolant/freeze protection for the V60 D3 100KW (D5204T7)

    Hello, I wanted to change the cooling fluid, since it is already as old as the car, so 10 years… Can’t find anywhere which coolant/freeze protection I need. Manual says nothing, only the quantity, online I found nothing concrete, I’m shown everything possible for my car, i.e. G11, G12, G13.. What makes all this even more difficult, I have a yellow in it right now, which is very rare. Can someone please help me?

  • Whispering sound before engine start and running engine

    Hello together, now I have to ask for advice: For some time now I have been hearing a constant “whispering/whispering” with my moose, as soon as I initiate the ignition process (passed clutch pedal) (starter has not yet started turning) and then also during the normal engine run. Turbocharger I exclude 100%, because I still remember the sound of a defective turbo from BMW times very well. My guess from previous research in the net indicates a defective turbo. Low pressure or vacuum pump. I have not found any leaks on hoses on the moose so far, there is nowhere to be found out. What I noticed was that I also have a rather “hard” brake pedal before every start process – normally this would have to be reasonably easy to operate after a maximum of 8 hours of engine outtime, wouldn’t it?

  • Interior: Which leather color is used?

    Greetings, can someone please tell me where I find the used colour designation of the leather covers? Is it also on the type plate? Maybe a look in the interior is enough for one or the other and someone can tell me the color. I have attached two pictures. I would like to order a care set from the leather center. ->Colour selection Leather covers Volvo When I look at the pictures there, in my opinion the color Charcoal is closest to my covers. My XC6 0 is from 2015. Thank you very much Pedro

  • HA brake renewal: special knowledge or tools required?

    Moin! So far I have had maintenance/repairs done by the friendly, whose workshop is however a three-quarter hour away. Rather because of time and a bit also for cost reasons I consider to have the upcoming renewal of the rear axle brakes (dishes + stones) made here in the place in a free workshop. With those I used to be always with my old Fiestas and was actually always well satisfied. However, the mainly experience with VAG, PSA and Ford vehicles and hardly any experience with Volvo. Now my question: Is there any special feature with Volvo (V70 Built ’14, one of the last five cylinders) regarding brake piston provision or provision of the electric parking brake, which a good but just Volvo inexperienced screwdriver must know and observe?! Thank you in advance! /MUG_
