Hello Together The instrument cluster of my Volvo C70 Cabriolets (2001) is sporadically off (tacho failure, KM display missing), STC/ABS/warning light and occasionally motor control light are on. Most of the time after a few minutes drive the tacho and KM counters work again and the indicator lights go off, only STC always stays on until the engine is switched off. When reading out different diagnostic devices each indicate the error P1633 (Accelera. Pedal Pos. Sensor 2 Signal too Low). My guess was with the defect of the el. gas pedal, after I changed it already for a new original part, unfortunately the error occurred again. Does someone have an idea where the real problem lies? Best regards Sebastian

Today it was time: the last step before the conversion from the Deltamil air conditioning system to the original Volvo system, the evaporator had to be changed. So A-Brett out, air box out and the old evaporator out (was still close only unfortunately incompatible with the Volvo system). Was also quite modified as you can see in the photo. The whole was actually after 1 1/2 hours already changed, after 2 hours the air box was also in again. Since I also (finally) order in the Elekt rik I made my way to this one, and I’m not going to finish it until tomorrow. Here are some photos of the action Thanks to Johnny for the help Greeting Cristian

Hello, my `99 TDI is supposed to get track broadening, because the track width is especially at the rear compared to my AWD (XC) somehow not quite satisfactory. I thought of a small widening, so 10 mm. per side, i.e. 20 mm. per axis. But: These systems are actually only to have with longer wheel screws, and I would lose the beautiful, long chrome bolts. -Lengther wheel bolts in chromed (if necessary without longer hexagon, then the hexagon would z was sitting further inside, but at least still chrome blinking ) in M12x1,75 there is probably not? -Which plate thickness is the narrowest, which is fixed with extra screws to the wheel hub? -The aluminium rims (perfo) have inside on the contact surface to the wheel hub so “bags”, in which overstanding screw heads would have a few millimeters additional space. If one with a Dremel etc. overstanding “Nupsis” removed, there would be even a lot of space for screw heads (1 cm about). ps? Greeting Chris

Today I got my car from the workshop, problem was that I had 900 rpm, the temperature indicator always only went up 1/4 and the exhaust was extremely roaring. Today then the complete ignition system was replaced, the thermostat, the temperature sensor, the suction bridge and now the speedometer 1100 rpm shows in the warm state! According to the meter this is between 850 and 900, what can this be broken now? Another problem is the roaring of the exhaust. I had the problem that he fanned gs with original cat and original end pot very quiet ran from the driving noise. Now the cat was clogged but we had to replace it, so new cat under it and then he started to tube. But noise came to 100% out of the end pot, so end pot renewed. The tube was back, so again to the workshop, Krummer is dense, Kat was replaced by an expensive, but tubes is still there, engine bearings are fine… I spin right through, where can the error now lie, if the whole Compression test: Cylinder 1 = 10 bar, Cylinder 2 = 11 bar Cylinder 3 = 11.4 bar, Cylinder 4 = 11 bar and Cyöinder 5 equal to 10 bar, sounds very balanced, should be ok according to the workshop and will not be the trigger for the problems of the engine. Spark plug picture of the old spark plugs was great, not too fat, not too lean, especially it does not burn oil. I am really overwhelmed, the car has just 180000 km down cO

Once again I found something cool.. With the newer Volvos (and other manufacturers) you can, after the car has turned off, have the lights on for a short time, so that you can find home in the dark. (Tuer lock etc) To the happy Volvo has actually prepared everything, so that we can get our elk for almost 15 EUR with it:http://picasaweb.google.com/…/FollowMeHomeFunctionVolvo850V70# (Instructions as a comment of the pictures) Works perfectly

… because of a small mud lamp in the tacho you drive nothing (only vehicle with airbag, therefore I never pay attention to the lamp…) to the TÜV to get a glued only to drive back afterwards 98 Euro poorer and without stickers – considerable lack: – Airbag system: System lamp without function Last year the ABS lamp, now SRS/Airbag (yes really the lamp, errors are not saved). Can you replace the lamps without the instrument cluster? In addition, it is important to ensure that there is no discrimination between women and men in the labour market.

What do you think? My moose now has about 380,000km on the clock. I will probably have to take care of the VSD and oil trap in the next 20,000km. It already blows a little and disassembles 1L ÖL on approx. 1.300km. That this is too much, is clear to me. Since approx. 200.000km I drive 10W40 and dump every 1,300km a litre after. Is it advisable to switch over to another oil, apart from the VSD and the oil trap? Be happy about your opinions…. VG Bird
