  • 3rd child seat

    Question to the elk specialists: How do I accommodate a 3rd child correctly on the back seat? My elk has two integrated child seats and in between there would still be enough space for a 3rd one. My or THE problem is that no seat increase available in the accessory store fits in in between without covering the belt locks! Is there such a thing from Volvo as “extra”? I couldn’t find anything! Did anyone of you have the problem? Greeting Kurt PSas uploaded to illustrate B Ild is not of mine but very similar!

  • Cockpit decor yes or no??

  • V40 BJ 02 and LPG

    Hello. Since I also have a V40 (165ps; Bj 2002; 185TKM) I think – synchronously of the rising interest prices – more and more often about LPG. Experiences about this? Is the conversion still worth 185TKM? According to the current survey of the driven KM relative to BJ and engine I can not get a clear picture. Too much are the wear differences in distance / city etc. So: What is a conversion cost about and which manufacturer is recommended? I consume approx. 8.5 – 9l /km and can calculate a payback with a driving performance of approx. 20-25KM/a (at approx. 10% extra consumption). Important would be a simple handling and a placement in the wheel pit. A few advices for me? markus.

  • V40 attenuating

    Hello Leutz… I’ve been thinking about such an idea… Maybe you’re wondering if I have a full-meat – but it doesn’t matter… I’d take it with humor… I like to hear as little as possible of the engine noise. And I’d also like my little one to be a little quieter… Is it possible to keep the V40 under control without much effort? You can buy car insulation like this… Has anyone ever done that before? Does it even bring something? Do you prefer to put it in the engine room or in the car? Interior? Greetings

  • Külwasserausgabe am Turbo (2.0T, 163 HP, BJ 2002)

    Hello, my V40 loses some liquid from the exhaust gas turbocharger. It is visible only after a few hundred kilometers on the balance tank. On the garage floor, however, a few drops under the turbo are always visible after parking. I first thought it was a hot screw for the cooling water, or its seal which has become leaking on the turbo (marking on the picture). However, if you take a closer look, the exit point for me can’t be narrowed down so precisely. (S ihe pictures). Would you advise me to try it with a cooler sealant, or are there disadvantages to expect ? MfG

  • V40 1.9 T, goes out when it gets warm

    Hello community a friend of mine wants to buy a Volvo V40, but the car has a problem! As long as the car is cold he drives completely normal, he gets warm, he no longer takes gas, swallows himself and then goes out. He meant it feels like steam bubbles when he starts to get warm !!! He also starts again when he has become cold !!! Furthermore he said at the rail valve he produces “air bubbles” petrol pump and petrol pipes have been renewed ! It is about a 97 he with 1855 ccm and 147 kw! Who knows what that could be? Are grateful for every tip, would be a pity if the Volvo is sold elsewhere have already looked over the search but unfortunately not found anything

  • 2004 V50 T5 Summum: All speakers defective… 🙂

    Hello guys, Are a few days I heard in my V50 T5 summum no basses anymore… That’s ka****, because with a Premium Sound Packet that would be great. Anyway, the mechanic at the Volvo dealer said now that all 4 loudspeakers in the doors are broken and you can’t really explain it… Does any of you know this phenomenon??? Greetz Joe

  • V50 leather quality

    Hello, now my elk has about 1 1/2 months and already small cracks (only superficially so 2 mm long) on the passenger seat. Volvo has promt the guarantee service for this with the reason that the “cut” was created by foreign influence (nivet on jeans, zipper, etc.). I find already a weak performance. Especially since the car has only 4500 km down and was rarely driven with passenger. Also, the leather just seems to me in this quilted area even thinner, wi e at the other seats. After 130′ km nothing was missing from my old BMW. Has anyone had similar experiences? Am I already considering whether I should have a look at this by a reviewer (ADAC or something). VG Chris

  • Adaptive blend preparation Bank 1

    After I don’t get any further through the search function and Google I have to open a new topic. I have the error in it as it stands above. My friendly Volvo workshop can’t tell me what it is and so I have already fixed a few possible causes on my own. Have throttle valve remodeled, coolant sensor replaced, vacuum hoses renewed (although these were tight), both lamda probes replaced, new candles in it and air filters of course also changed. oblem once makes itself noticeable by the MKL, partly the motor jerks when accelerating and from 4000 revolutions not much happens anymore. A sawing in the idle is not available although it sucks off from time to time with the speed, when you drive to the traffic light and take the gear out. The only thing I have still thought about is: air mass meters (although ETS would have to light up), intake air temperature sensor, charging pressure sensor and charging pressure control valve. hliegen or how can one check these? Thanks already for all tips and hints
