Moin, had already mentioned my tour this year, but wanted to publish the pictures separately. Of course I am travelling with my elk. I have for the first time in my life the luck to be able to take a longer vacation. On the way I am now since the 18.9. by car went to Stockholm from there by ferry to South Finland. I spent the first 3 weeks there with nothing. Half the time my friend gave me company. For 3 days went to St. Petersburg (with elk back AND). Since the 11.10. I am now really on tour. First I went by car train from Helsinki to Rovaniemi. The first days up there were the tempartures up to -16°. Amazingly that there the SH ran there without problems! Further went over the NW from Finland to Tromso in Norway. The last two days I spent in a beautiful valley in Norway near Finland. Now I am going to the North Cape. From there I went to the NO Norways, maybe with a visit to Murks, and at the beautiful side of Finland a few of them.

Hi… I’ve been using the Video-Breakin-Box for the video display on the Volvo RTI-TFT from Volvotech.eu for some time now. Link: Link to the Video-Breakin-Box Runs great with my return camera. Now I wanted to connect to the free 2nd video input a small multimedia player with TV-Out. Have mine from England, here the link to another auction… same part: Link: Link to the Card-TV-Player The part has a CVBS(Composite Video Broadcast Signal) output. The Video-Breakin-Box has a Comp RCA input (RCA=Cinch). So should be compatible. The picture is also nicely sharp.. only it remains black-and-white!! In the system menu I have already put the signal type on PAL. NTSC does not show any image. Further image changing settings (except color adjustments, Saturation etc) there is no problem. if someone asks about it. the black/white image does not result in the color control… So what can switch the device in between?

Hello municipality would like to buy me a Volvo XC90 2.5T with 155,000 km on the clock. When must be changed at the dare the timing belt ??? Would be really grateful for tips ! What should I pay attention to with the car and the mileage ! ? Thanks and greeting Gralli

Hello, now I bought it yesterday, the V70-II (8/2001). However, he only has STC, if you believe the switch in the interior. (According to the manual, the “DSTC” would have to display.) Now, of course, I would like ESP, i.e. DSTC, for security reasons. The search in the net and in the forum on conversion was “relative” without results, there were only the statements here in the forum that it probably was not economically useful, since no pure software update. But: Has anyone asked about you in concrete terms? Is it possible at all? And what amount do we talk about? Thanks for Input, Gerhard.

Good evening together, since March a Volvo V70 2.4L gasoline drive and so far very satisfied with the car. Apart from a few small things, he spared us with bigger defects so far. The problems were solved by the car dealership on guarantee and that without discussion-very pleasant as I find it. Last week our third brake lamp failed, we got a new rear flap cable tree and since that worked everything again. Until tonight:-( I wanted to drop the trunk flap into the lock, but it refused stubbornly. The car was open and the rear flap lock was closed. Of course there was no one left in the car dealership. So the Adac had to hit and he found a small spring that blocked the locking mechanism. The thing was removed and the lock is again doing its work-it closes;-) I wonder now where this feather comes from and which function the feather has in the rear flap to look at? If I open the flap now or close it is always heard behind the panel – I could present it to me, which is still something that I wanted to fold around?

We had bought the car with about 36’000 km. Pure to driving is the car class, has a lot of steam, comfort and is visually appealing. However, the maintenance is extremely expensive and there are many soon expensive repairs on: with only 100,000km of crossbars in front, wheel bearings in the rear, in heavy rain there was a deafening whistle of unknown origin and the parking sensors in the rear failed their service. The outer shell of the exhaust pan peeled off, the blinker went only sporadically and although we did not particularly strain the car in any way the leather seats showed strong wear off and when side cushioning the backrest on the driver side had burst open the seam. It happened 5-6 times that the car didn’t make any mucks when you wanted to start it. Software errors hit it every time, cause is unknown. Since I can’t afford it like most of the old people can’t even get better at work 5-6 times a year ago, we sold the car wutent and bought us a Mercedes S55 AMG. Well, the car has been more amazingly easier than that car, but it’s maintenance has never been more expensive.

Hello and have a few questions at once. But first of all introduce. Alllsoooo: My name is Robby. (No nickname. This is really in the ID card and as a child I always thought: “When I am tall, I get a real adult name.”…) So far I have been on the V40/S40 Forum. Since last Sunday I am proud owner of a “real” Volvo. Now I finally have my dream Volvo. a V70 II. But now to my questions. In the operating instructions it says that in the license plate lighting sofitten, you write it so?, with socket C5W. After disassembly I found out, however, that they are glass socket lamps. So. Now I don’t know which socket that is. The printed stuff is gone. Are these now with socket WY5W or W5W? reason for the look, then I want to upgrade to LED, which I have already made good experiences. In addition, I am interested in whether it is possible, or always the so-called comfort binblink.
