  • Display coolant level too low Volvo S80 3.2 MJ 2007 EZ. 2008

    Moin together, get the above mentioned message permanently displayed although in the balance tank up to MAX is filled up. I have already replaced the sensor from below in the container by a new replacement. Result unchanged error message. Where could the cause still lie? Thanks already for your input. Greetings from FFM

  • Chassis changes…

    Hello together. Now that the brakes are made and next week the clutch and the ZR are on the paper, it is time to renew the chassis before the TÜV appointment at the end of January….The ass hangs and the dampers are almost graffiti… Now the questions: What would I recognize if Nivos are installed? Is there an inexpensive alternative to the thread suspension? The dampers and spring set should then not exceed 1000€…( rather less) I like it a bit harder;-))) Bin a about no rally driver and don’t want to be that either;-))))) Only there are plenty of serpentines and curves to drive here and there is just swinging dangerous…. What do you think of a subtle track widening? So around 20-30 mm/axle? Does this bring a better location? Why doesn’t the STR-T kit fit to the T5? I imagine something like that… Thanks a lot already and a nice evening, Andreas.

  • Engine Start

    My s80 d5 can only be started after one day of standing. Who you start after longer standing time turns the start you can also start for a long time but it doesn’t start. If you start a second time it starts immediately. What can that be??? The injectors have already been checked. Thanks

  • Grinding noise???

    I already knew that my S60 was a grinder, but now it is accompanied by the sound I noticed the grinding noise 2 weeks ago, only in hard-driven right turns, now in general. And it always becomes louder. Sounds then partly like a hammering or knocking. It is speed-dependent, but independent of the engine and the brake. Had first assumed that there might be a nail in the tire… but nothing. someone had had that…??? become m take care of the workshop….this will be too hot for me…. Ciao, Eric, the left front wheel is already unscrewed today but nothing is found….

  • Experience regarding display of range

    Three days ago, on the way to Hamburg with a speed of 190 “said” to me the BC that I will not make it. Since I had no desire for a tank stop, I reduced it to 140 kmh and it should be enough. At the village entrance still 20 km were available to me according to the message. The 5 km to my domestic tank I then drove on. 71.01 liters fit into the tank (+ filling nozzles) V70 D5

  • Turbocharger repaired now defective

    Hello I had a defect on the turbocharger in August. My Volvo dealer then repaired it (650€). Then the car ran normal. Until last week the same error came again. (motor maintenance required): I returned to the Volvo dealer. He meant the turbocharger is now completely over and must be replaced. (cost estimate 1460€). Oh yes the car runs quite normally also with turbo. the emergency run only starts from time to time. Mostly if I e.g. on the highway after a construction site After 2 km on the motorway in the emergency run the error goes away again and everything runs normal. In the city traffic the error never occurs. What do you think, must the dealer meet me? Between the maintenance and the upcoming exchange are 4 months and 5000 km respectively. Thank you for your advice in advance.

  • Purchase advice V70 2.5 with low budget

    Good morning all together, I have read a lot here in the forum in the last days and need a personal purchase advice for two V70 I who are close to me 🙂 I hope you can help me further! Starting point: I was the last to be able to get “a little” excited about these models with a friend in the V70 I. Now that I need a transitional vehicle for the next 8-10 months, I looked directly to Volvo and bi I drive about 600km a month, have to pull to a trailer and have several at hand which have a lifting platform and can therefore repair something for me. Now to the vehicles: Both are close to the 300,000km, both are black and have the 2.5 petrol with 144hp and 170hp installed. The first is built in 04/1997, has TÜV until 07/2016 and is supposed to drive very well. Information on the change of the timing belt the owner can le The towing hook at the front should have nothing to mean (was probably already there when it was bought). I get information about the number of holders and repairs at the VA today. Purchase price: on 900€ traded.http://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/…/339841594-216-2598 The second is built in 12/1999, has TÜV until 07/2017, 2nd hand and in my opinion (you already notice at the price…) the better choice. Better equipment, the seats I like better, It makes more visual thanks to the rear spoiler and the rims and so I find it much more well-kept. The repairs before 1000km of brakes in the rear are complete, V-belts etc. are also top. However, if the net costs three times – 2,700€ (have not yet reached the seller to negotiate, I expect about 2,000€). http://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/…/341725236-216-2082 Now is the question for you Volvo connoisseurs: The budget for the more expensive V70 would be there. investment? We’re talking about min. 1.100€ more and after 8-10 months it should be sold again… but doesn’t want to have a toilet where I have to pump my acquaintances every month, if they can repair me a bit! I hope that wasn’t too much input Best regards from Lippe Christian

  • v70 – D5 – Consumption

    Today I rolled my moose to the gas station after 1032 kilometers and filled the tank again. After exactly 74 liters (how exactly is that) I finished the tank process. I could see the diesel already. If I am not too stupid to operate “calc” I experienced an average consumption of 7.1 liters. The BC showed me a bit more beautiful 6.6 liters. I used the auxiliary heating only 2 times in this tank filling (summer stop). Driving profile: 30% (fr) ie) Autobahn, Tacho 180 – 210 10% Stadtverkehr 60% Landstraße I have always switched into the next higher gear as early as possible and used the 5th gear at speed 50 in the city. Autobahn actually only in the 6th gear (except acceleration lanes). I did not have to switch down for a better acceleration.. On the road I rolled everything from 70km/h in the 6th gear. Greeting Marc – with 3 liters less than with the predecessor

  • 5Zyl Marco has prepared the 850 T5

    Moin. I keep watching the “screw videos” of 5 cylinders Marco (Degenhardt) on Youtube. Actually a proven Audi Freak and 5 cylinders fanatic. Now he has bought a “real” 5Zyl Turbo and builds it up again. Maybe you’re interested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yg2snUj7XLY Mike

  • Tips for Youngtimers

    Hello in the round, I have decided to get a youngtimer in the foreseeable future. I swivel between the Volvo 850 and the Volvo V70, thus Bj 1998 – 2006 Whether petrol or diesel is not clear. I would like to see a robust and well-repaired or maintained vehicle, with which one still has a lot of pleasure. Since I am still at the beginning of my research I am grateful for hints and tips. Thanks in advance. Stef
