  • Charging condition Battery low?

    After just 2,000km I get the display “Ladestand Battery low”. What’s going on there? Too much music in the stand heard? Now I drove about 500km of highway in the last days and thought the battery should now be fully charged again. To my surprise the display “Ladestand Battery low” came back. What’s going on? Battery not okay? alternator not okay? Chigurh

  • missing performance with my Volvo 850 R Kombi

    Hello, I have the following problem and don’t know any more. With my Volvo 850 R Kombi I feel like I’m missing power. It’s more like a 150hp car instead of a 250hp car. I’ve read through the internet and found several posts but it wasn’t the right thing to do. I’ve been watching what the turbocharger display does today and no matter how much gas or in which gear I’m in, it never goes more than 3 maximum 4mm into the white area. I’ve never had before a Volvo Turbo to compare but I would think that this is too little. What can it be that the turbo “does not start”? Does it not get air or does not open a valve? I have zero idea where to start looking. He also has following Macke that if you push the clutch to switch, it goes up in the tours first and then they fall first. So like if you still give a bit of gas when the clutch is pressed. Does that have something to do with the same problem? to do? Perhaps a minor phenomenon? I am grateful for any help! VG Claude

  • Wiping water filter

    Moin people, my wiping water doesn’t arrive on the windshield, I traveled the pump changed and hoses on constipations so it goes, when I looked at the filter, I was a little scared (they always look like that?), then washed it once with hot water, and again built it in, then it went a minute, and then it was clogged again, I guess material is released from the filter and put down in the hoses so that it clogs. Had that already al who ? I found nothing about the SuFu and also at Skandix only found a new filter, which has an exit and an entrance. Mine has wiping water supply, wiping water forwarding and exhaust air. In the appendix is picture of the part. Thanks in advance. Greetings Finn

  • Five stars at the Euro NCAP crash test: New Volvo V40 convinces with record points

    Source: Volvo press distributorFive stars in the Euro NCAP crash test: New Volvo V40 convinces with record score • Best score in occupant protection • Highest pedestrian protection score • Top scores in assistance systems Cologne. The new Volvo V40 received the highest five stars in the Euro NCAP crash test. This was announced today by the Euro NCAP Institute in Brussels. At the same time, the Swedish compact model achieved the best result ever awarded by the organization This makes the dynamic Volvo V40 one of the safest cars in the world from mid-September onwards. “This is a fantastic result. Now we have it black and white: the Volvo V40 is one of the safest cars in the world. This is another important step in our plan that no new Volvo occupant should be seriously injured or killed in an accident in 2020,” explains Thomas Broberg, Senior Technical Advisor Safety at Volvo Car Corporation. The Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme) has been evaluating the overall safety of a vehicle with up to five stars since 2009. The crash test is divided into four sub-areas, which are weighted differently: occupant protection for adults and children, pedestrian protection and safety assistance systems. Not only the overall result for the new Volvo V40 is record-breaking. The aim of the development of the Volvo V40 was to transfer the safety level of larger Volvo models to the compact class. This sophisticated approach, a rigid body structure and features such as the WHIPS sling trauma protection system form the basis for the excellent result. Also in the category of safety and safety, the V40 is also the ideal solution for the driver. The new Volvo V40 was able to score full. “We presented the Volvo V40 as the smartest and safest vehicle we’ve ever built, and in fact it offers important and meaningful assistance systems that support the driver: from the Volvo City Safety System and the emergency brake assist with automatic pedestrian detection, to the new track-holding assistant and Cross Traffic Alert, to the advanced BLIS, Thomas Broberg adds. The compact model is the first vehicle in the world to be equipped with a pedestrian airbag as standard. As soon as the seven sensors responsible for the pedestrian airbag in the front bumper register the contact with a pedestrian, the airbag is triggered by a pyrotechnic detonator. As a result, the bonnet is raised by about ten centimetres, the pedestrian airbag spreads U-shaped, thus covering a Most of the windshield, windscreen wiper arms and A-pillars reduce the risk of pedestrian injury. The Euro NCAP report states: “The system works convincingly. Hood and airbag offer good protection for pedestrians and thus help the Volvo V40 to the maximum score.” Volvo Car Corporation has already received the Euro NCAP Advanced Award for the Volvo City Safety System, which is far beyond the efficiency of comparable systems. of course, this safety feature, which is active up to 50 km/h and helps to avoid collisions in urban traffic, belongs to the standard equipment of the new Volvo V40. “We are working tirelessly to improve the already high safety level and protection level of our vehicles. To this end, we evaluate the real accident events, try to understand the causes and let the results feed into our development work”, explains Thomas B ==References==

  • Purchase advice Volvo S40/60 II

    I wish you a good Sunday, My Astra will now have to stop as a summer car and for that a comfortable second car has to come. I used to drive a Volvo 440 and was always completely satisfied with it and thought I was looking for a Volvo again and came across the S40 and S60 models. The problem, however, is that I don’t know about Volvo anymore and wanted to ask you for help now. The first question I ask myself is, where is the Great Unte? Is the S40 a middle class and the S60 an upper middle class vehicle? Which machines are recommended and which machines should not be taken at all? How high is the consumption and is the machine also E10? Teeth belts or chain? (change intervals) What is the problem of rust, because my 440 at the time was quite vulnerable? What should I pay attention to when I was looking at the S40? What kind of equipment is Volvo the highest, or what is it called? I mean to have heard that Volvo is now also Ford and now I wonder if the robustness (sweden steel) is still there as it used to be? That should have been it for now and thank me in advance for your help MFG Devil

  • RTI DVD player in V70 II defective

    Hi, the DVD player in my trunk is on strike. He doesn’t read the DVD anymore. I copied the DVD times to find out if it could be due to the “used” surface – missing. My friendly … was very quick to sell me a new DVD player in exchange, so a repaired replacement device. But I’m not so excited about over 1,100,- EUR cost incl. playing the new software… If you consider that a DVD player for the PC today just This has to be one that meets special requirements for vibration damping, etc. – but honestly, there must be a better solution. Last time I visited Sweden during my vacation, they can’t offer anything cheaper. Is there anyone here who could solve this problem by using personal manual work or someone who knows that in most cases, for example, the reading head must be exchanged??? Ich mein, einen Lötboben habe ich ja schon… 😉 Freue mich sehr über helpfule Reply… Gruß aus HH

  • Short term DSTC not available at launch

    Hi guys, I recently bought a used Volvo V50 D2 and I am actually very satisfied with the vehicle, low consumption and super pleasant driving feeling, everything is pure. But now the following has happened 3 times when starting: The information sign lights up, at the same time with the DSTC sign and the message “DSTC temporarily not available”. If I drive two meters, all lamps go off and then the rest of the journey no longer go on. In the on-board computer then also The problem did not always occur at every start, but irregularly. I have already checked in the application manual and read there that this message says that the DSTC is switched off because of too high brake temperature. However, this cannot be true with me, since the warning lights have been applied after a service life of 12 hours. I am now of course worried that there is something defective and I either have to plug in some real coal again, Or what’s worse is that the DSTC fails at the worst moment and I end up in the ditch. I understandably have little desire for both of them. Now I’ve been looking for this mistake on the Internet and found something similar, but never with the addition that they go out after two meters again. Does any of you have any idea what that could be or has had such a problem yourself? Greetings
