  • Chewing advice V50, 2009

    Hello all, I would like to buy a V50, for daily commuting (30km easy), vacation etc. Have looked at this today (but not yet tested): http://suchen.mobile.de/…/details.html?… Can you do something wrong? Which price is appropriate? Actually I didn’t want to spend more than 6000, but I’ve already seen that it’s hard to find something under 160,000km. But should hold a few years. Then rather one with 2.0? Important to me: little consumption. I didn’t understand 5 l, the “Drive” is less than the 1.6. I didn’t ask today, maybe the dealer also knows what. But would I be very happy about the answers too. To the previous owner’s story: first owner had it 1 year, second the rest. And: what good it is to buy from the dealer if you live 120 km away from him? Thanks already and many greetings!

  • My 850er no longer starts – Difficult fault diagnosis

    Dear Leut, my 850 doesn’t start anymore and has been in the Volvo workshop for a few days. They have already switched ignition cables, candles and distribution cap and have ruled out a lot of things.Tass now already a lot of coal At the moment they assume that the engine control unit is defective.The Volvo workshop has kindly already picked out an Ebay link for a suitable control unit:http://www.ebay.de/…/271453803406?… However, the Asspartin (the v om Asspartin Used Parts Shop) warned that it would not be possible to exchange the ECU easily because of the immobilizer. But he was not quite sure. Do you know more about this?

  • Motor conversion

    Hello together for a long time did nothing and now it comes, I bought myself a Volvo C70I EZ 12.1999 2,5l with 170 hp and automatic as a project, I would like to make a monster out of the Volvo what should be called that on the body except Strammen chassis and wider pneumatics should be nothing to recognize but replace the engine or whom someone in the area Frankfurt, Darmstadt or surroundings has had experience I would like to invite on a coffee to exchange experiences. first of all I am grateful to everyone and for every tip and is welcome, I would also like to install an exhaust system in 3”, my thought revolves around using an S80 with 279 hp and the engine in my C70 of course also larger charge air coolers. As told who should have the experience already made with the tip’s are welcome. and thank you in advance to all.

  • Warm air flap in the air filter box never completely closed?

    Hello together! Since I’ve just got free and it’s still too cold to get out the mop, I once made myself over the parts of my ex-volvos. Background: On Matthew’s Volvo side I discovered a post that deals with the fact that the warm air flap in the air filter box probably no longer closes so properly due to a rotten thermostat and thus above all warm air would be sucked in by the exhaust manifold. – Which would lead to power losses and higher consumption. Curious I took out my air filter box stored in the cellar and expanded the flap unit. If I suck at the vacuum box now, the flap switches wonderfully and warm air would flow through from the cracker. As far as possible. However, in the resting position, so if cool fresh air should flow through, the flap to the exit cracker still remains about 1cm open. That means it always flows through some warm air. Unfortunately the pictures shown on Matthews side do not agree with the unit of mine agree, I assume that he had a 10V, with which the valve is thermostat- and not underpressure controlled. Can that be? What does this look like with you? After that, turn off the flex hose to the cracker and see if he drives in any other way. Does your flap close completely, or does it always remain a bit open? Greeting holidaymakers

  • Crossbar exchange after 340.000 km

    With me now the crossbar exchange after 7 years / only 80tkm (3/4 city traffic DD) is available. Last exchange was with the “Friendly”, parts 135,-EUR/Stck.. On the topic of MEYLE already a lot was written here. Which are now currently recommended? With Volvo ́ I don ́t let ́ them change again. Would buy the parts and have them installed expertly.

  • no more power

    Hello together, short question could the turbocharger be defective? Vehicle accelerates quite badly but the engine runs tip top calmly, it does not give any error or warning message in the amature display. Automaton also switches top but somehow does not start speeding up. I noticed that the vehicle just slowed down when driving comfortably with cruise control because it went slightly uphill, it only accelerated again when switching down but also not very much. I’ve had this before and had some other symptoms. Let’s see if it’s still with a cold engine tomorrow. D5244T4 Merci and beautiful Gruss Slipenir

  • Change to the V70 3 D3 – Questions about the (already done) change

    So, today it was time: the V70 II D5 delivered as commission sales, and picked up the V70 III D3. First impression: great … but now begins “introduction”: get overview, understand things, set actions. I allow myself to start a separate thread, and hope this fits the habits here in the forum. * Navi: shows on SW-Version 09F5, map version V 30.13.02 / can I update it myself? This megadownload of 22 GB I wanted to start before last Woc he, unfortunately this exe on my PC has done exactly nothing (only what was written from preparation and then disappeared, without activity) * the car shows me immediately “register for service”. Was to be expected. The private seller did not do the upcoming service any more, I did not negotiate it, ergo it is not there. Or the workshop did not reset this warning at the just done ZR-Tausch? I have to ask again. Should I have to commission it myself: what stands there, with currently 167tsd km on it? And now I sit in and drive for the first time “for fun” where with it 😉 Probably soon the next questions will come to you 🙂

  • New start – stop battery at V60 2011 original or alternative?

    Hello together, I have my v60 for 2 years. He is now 7 years old and still has the first battery in it. However, she will soon give up her mind, have often display “low battery charge” and the Start Stop function works almost never, which however does not bother me. I asked the friendly because of battery and the original is at 257 Euro!! A little violent. I looked around and for example the silverhttps://www.idealo.de/…/…ilver-dynamic-agm-1 2v-95ah-g14-varta.html varta. What do you think about it? What do you have installed and what does it fit? My data : V60 2.4 D5 circuit In my battery compartment is even more space than for the battery that is now installed. I know that the height is important for it to fit in. Would be happy about your opinion and tips.
