Hi guys, I’m planning to buy a new car and I’m going to love it with a Volvo V70 III. I’d like to open a discussion on V70 as a used car and hope for your opinions and experiences. Here are a few questions I’m asking myself. I’m going to number them for the sake of simplicity. So everyone can comment on the questions he’s had his own experience on. Apart from that, I’m also happy about other comments or general experiences with the car. In advance, I would like to thank you for your help and look forward to a lively discussion 😉 baruscha91 Questions: 1) Generational differences: Apart from the optics, what are the most important differences between the second and third generation of the V70 for you. Has the latest generation built in important improvements, or have so many quirks been added to it? Are there significant differences between facelift and non-facelift within the third generation? ? 2) Diesel engine D5: How good is the D5? What is the life expectancy of the engine? I currently have a car in mind, whose D5 with 215 hp after 4 years has almost 200,000 km on the hump. Too much of the good? The car is built at the end of 2011, so the engine should be the D5244T11 or the D5244T15, even though I don’t know where the difference lies between both models. Is there any experience with both? 3) When buying: What are typical weaknesses of the V70? What should you pay special attention to when buying a used car? What should you pay special attention to with a mileage of 200,000 km? 4) Equipment: Which equipment would you not want to do without anymore? What would you not order anymore, because it is unnecessary or completely. likes to break and then becomes expensive? 5) Fuel consumption: How reliable are the factory specifications. Found here a D5, which is at 215 hp with (according to the manufacturer) 5.2L per 100km. Where are the actual values with mixed driving methods? 6) Follow-up costs: What about Volvo with costs for spare parts and services? I am used to BMW and consider there some spare parts prices as impertinence. Do you have to grab the bag with Volvo just as strongly or are the Swedes a bit more satisfying?

Delayed turbo reaction – cause?
Hello together, today on the way home from work and on a short errand just now I noticed a strange behavior of my moose (2.0D): The turbo reacts at once delayed! Normally it misses a good kick at full speed from ~1.750-2,000 rpm after the usual turbohole memory customer and rips, but this happens at the moment only one or two seconds later (and thus at slightly higher speeds). So below 2,000 rpm feels the nor I’m not sure if this could fit, but the vacuum hose of the turbo control (which runs on the back of the engine block) could possibly be a suspect… It had bitten through a marten some time ago, so the better reachable end of the hose from the ADAC against a The provisional was found to be so good that he thought that I could safely leave it that way – and it also worked over 40,000 km without any problems. Apparently the connection is still fine, but maybe a cattle bit in again…? On the other hand, even if a vacuum hose has a small hole, no full tube can be used. I suppose the pressure will be built more, so the turbo should never be able to build up full pressure, right? Greetings Matt

With whom did the connection guarantee “reward”?
Hello community, I’m still not sure if I should complete the Volvo Pro Plus connection guarantee for my C70 MY13 (this is the one that covers almost everything except the cover parts).Yes, it’s clear: in truth the connection “guarantee” is an insurance and only a big bet.It would help me in the decision-making process if those of you who have also signed a connection guarantee and tell if they are financially involved. Of course there is also an immaterial “learn” in the form of a good feeling that one would have been secured… I don’t mean that, but only the hard Euros: balance of the costs for the connection guarantee vs. actually necessary and taken over repair expenses. I consider whether I should take 909 € for the PRO PLUS in the hand for another 24 months “guarantee”. For this speak: – automatic transmission (if broken then really expensive) – elaborate roof Konstr uktion (the hydraulic ballet in the trunk – also here: if fit, then expensive: is included in the PRO PLUS ) – known defects of the series V50, S40II, C30 (climate condensator, door mechanics?..) Against this speaks: – my material-friendly driving style – “smooth weather car” without great stress – last model year, i.e. there should be no old problems of the series from earlier years (Zündschloss..) anymore. – “maintenance-free” D3 Diesel / soot particle filter combination Thanks for your reports Greetings, Harald

Side cladding seat V50 / S40
Good day, dear Volvo drivers… I watch more and more the cracking of my driver’s seat (with a quick change of direction like roundabout) The cracking comes from two “corns”. Somewhere in the back either seat or at the beginning of the backrest and from the side. The workshop hears it and does not feel it. Sometimes you can even feel a slight slide. Think the seat rails give in or has the seat some play – rails sit but bombarded. Or the backrest b zw the joint has a side-play opposite the lower part of the seat… However it cracks somewhere in the transition seat to the backrest and also side-wise: At the side comes the cracking from the seat-ve-dress. Maybe it is not right or it has loosened behind it or felt could help. Do you know how I get this hard plastic cladding away? I mean the part at the side where e.g. through a slit of the lever to the seat-vesser position. The seat is a mechanical – so without electric landing. Thanks for the help in advance and greetings Peter

Very slow falling speed (empty speed regulator valve)
Hello together, My 95 Volvo 850 (petrol with 144ps) makes fax times again. Problem is that it goes down while driving with the speed only extremely slowly. As a result, the actual braking effect when gasless rather converts to acceleration. At the gas train it can not lie (my first thought). After a little search with the mechanic of my trust, it turned out that the problem can be fixed with the idle control valve. In turn, I was thoroughly cleaned with brake cleaners. However, this did not solve the problem. Will I have a new old replacement installation and hope that it will be done with it. Does anyone have any other ideas about what it might be or experiences in the direction? Greetings Geiger

Yatour at SC-802
Hello friends of digital music, I ordered a Yatour MP3 USB adapter after some time of thinking and would like to write down a few info’s which I had to gather from many individual contributions. 1. The connection I had connected the adapter very blue-eyed to Dauerplus and was only once mercilessly satisfied. Then I realized at some point that when the radio was dialed on the changer, the radio did not go off when I pulled off the ignition key…. Al This article helped me with this: Quote: Original written by scutyde Masse was black with me, Lastingplus was brown/green and ignitionplus yellow/lila vehicle a V70I Built 97 2. Sorting Since SC-802 only a maximum of six CD’s could be selected which I had also created on the stick (CD01, CD02 …..) I copied several albums into a folder and provided the names with a previous consecutive numbering. (001_Title, 002_ Title….. Next album with 101_Title, 102_Title…. ) Only unfortunately the play sequence was still confused. The titles were sorted by date or copy daum, exactly I didn’t track that. Then this post brought me further: Quote: Original written by L15RDO6W1R Just the right recommendation, a big thank you again for this important info!! 3. Lists Since I had now in each folder at least five albums and can not keep all this in mind. I have tried several programs and stayed stuck with them because I liked it best: this list was printed as text and in a text processing, e.g. Open Office provided me with a numbering now shows me which number a certain title has on the respective CD. I still have a few more tracks on the same CD. Pictures on and hope all the problems with the Yatour have helped a little bit.

Car does not start in warm condition on the first start attempt, only on the second attempt
Hello, my wife currently has a problem with your Volvo V70 T5. If the car is issued in a warm way and is to be restarted afterwards, it usually does not jump on but only comes up to about 500 revolutions and goes out again. On the second attempt it then starts completely normal. Does anyone have an idea what could be? The air mass meter was changed only last year.

Volvo 854 GLT 2.5 20V Built 92 Conversion to T-5 Possible ?
Moin people, and that’s what I thought about my Red GLT Limo. And that’s what it would be possible to convert it to a T-5 engine? Would have liked to have the 2.0 20V Turbo from my Italo (is more splashy at the start and also more revolving because of the smaller engine capacity) What would have to be changed? Since my GLT Limo is from year 92, and most of the Turbos from 94, I guess the harness has to be adapted as well. can I actually leave the 4×108 hole circle in it or ? If no, I would of course on 5x108er LK conversions. Chassis, was this changed to the model years ? If no I would also have the current installed. Transmission and drive train are indeed different to the T5, or can I leave the drive shafts in it ? Who would like to help me answer the question ? He may be delighted at this topic and write a bit about it

SC-901 does not like CD ́S
I have the problem that my SC-901 doesn’t like CD`S. I push in the magazine of 3, it is loaded, it is brought out again, it is loaded, it is extended, etc. and that in endless loop. Fortunately, the changer works in the trunk 🙁 By the way, it is original CD ́S.
