Unfortunately, in winter my moose was unsuited….. This thin fold or envelope at the bottom of the threshold was covered and the rust protection damaged. At these places it starts to rust… It has already been months ago. The Tr*ttel used a jack, in which unfortunately these “rubber plates” were missing. I was already angry at that time, but the winter ices had to do it. I can’t accept damage claims. ? Or first primer/basic paint (this white stuff before you paint)? What does this fold look like for you? Is actually a rather weak spot when you see how thin the sheet is there, and what it theoretically has to endure.

Chassis spring bent –> in a bucket?
Hello, for a few days I have had a crack and quit on the rear axle (right). It’s not often and not very loud, but it’s there. Today I took the tire down and looked at what’s going on (see pictures). Looks as if the suspension spring was bent… I think that’s been so for a long time… I noticed the bare spot when changing tyres, but I didn’t think about anything at the time. The spring is bent to the wheel, but it’s still about . a hand width place. Can this also be the reason why my elk prefers to drive a bit to the right rather than straight ahead? Interestingly, this changes depending on the load. So, what do I do with the spring now? I guess that has to be out… Should I change the shock absorbers immediately? Which brands are recommended (read here in the forum that the Sachs are good…)? Have also read that dampers and springs should be matched to each other… is there something about it? Thank you for r Your answers Matthias

V40 rear wheel heavy. Handbrake?
Hello, I need some help. Today I have established that the rear right wheel can only be turned scwer, parallel to this the left one lighter (but also not quite easy). Besides, it is that the wheel screw is totally hot after the ride. Furthermore, the hand brake can be pulled up to the stop, so to speak. I would like to know now whether this is a hand brake problem? And what can I do myself to find the exact error and I have to say that the error with the handbrake has been in place for months. However, I noticed that with the wheel and the hotness of the bike I only noticed today.Before I checked nothing in this way. Thank you very much. Günter

I’ve been looking for an explanation…
Hello… first of all, I would like to state: For good work I like to pay good money! However, I wonder why the spare parts in half-timbered workshops are so massively higher than those you get for brand goods on the Internet. Two examples: A) Kat for nen V40 MJ 2001 750Eur without everything at specialist workshop and in comparison 310Eur incl. taxes and shipping from the KAT manufacturer. B) currently brake caliper at the rear left, spare part specialist workshop 250EUR, in Internet shipping 100-120Eur (ATE or LUK). Daz u comes still some holder for 54EUR per page + 2x Bremscheibe and the corresponding documents! That is each more than the double, for brand goods and no cheap scrap well noticed! Gottseidank I had the cat installed itself and cheaper. With the brake caliper I had now unfortunately no time with cheaper parts to get. If the brake is tight and the car should not move any more. Since really the collar bursts, how come such price differences Is it? Greetings

Sporadic no power 2.0D DPF
Hello Volvo driver, now my elk has unfortunately also caught it, for 3 days he has been ticking around. When starting the engine everything is still ok, then about 4km drive with normal performance unfolding and then the elk does not take any more food, Dehzahl only up to 2000U/min and max 110km/h……but all this without an error message and only when the temperature meter has crawled on the first line of the display. ch then immediately new start is all over and everything runs like before, the ignition doesn’t have to leave out even 2 seconds. I had the whole thing now 5 times and it went off every time without an error message or something like that, it may be due to the weather, is now in the monemt zeimlich wet with us and just so at the freeze point…….I my water break in a sensor plug or something? Have just just got the 60000km view behind me and was up until now actually quite lucky h with the car. Does someone have a good tip for me or do I just have to change the agr valve 😉 Thank you very much! the moose hunter

Martens V50
Hello Volvo friends, I would like to come out as a newcomer and already after I got my V50 4 weeks ago, ask a question to all Volvo drivers and especially the V50 drivers. Had 2 weeks ago a marten damage to the brand new car. The “Fiech” had nibbled on a turbo hose. As a result a total failure of the turbocharger. In the cheerful the problem could be solved directly (only 50,-Euro) and it also seemed to be quite rare, the straight a well-known V50 had exactly the same problem a few weeks ago. Question now, someone knows an effective Marten deterrence. In the net you can find everything from “Voodoo” to “electric chair for the Marten”. But what is also effective of it? Has anyone else experienced exactly this problem already? I would be very grateful about some tips. P.S.: At my Beetle and at a Ford Escort the Marten has so far out of footprints still n he’s doing some damage.
