  • V70 III – Assembly wiper water tank, container never completely filled?

    Hello together, with my V70 I just have the front bumper repainted. In this connection I noticed that the wiping water tank never appears to be completely filled. The wiping water is already at the top of the filling tube, but the container still has 5 cm of air. Has anyone noticed this before?

  • Consumption V70 170PS

    Hi people! And I want to know from you what you consume with your V70 with 170hp and switching. In pure city traffic of course. My Schwegerin is now driving for almost 3k km with 9.8l. Since this is however in the V50 forum a little “pragitive”, because the V50 1.8 with 125hp is already indicated with 9,xxl and that the heavier V70 can not underbid, I want to know your experiences. Can soon also attach a picture. mfg chris

  • to despair: S60 & stroller

    Hello, I am with the small boot opening at the forfeiture. May I ask the family fathers and mothers with S60 what they get for a stroller (combine car, i.e. prams with conversion possibility on sports cars) through this small hatch??? I have found up to now only one: turbo 4 of ABC design. With this you can fold the rack fully and also take away the attachment completely, the wheels anyway. So it is really small and should fit also in the Nissan Micra K12. However, the strollers of ABC design do not exactly correspond to my ideas of quality. If you read through the opinions at www.ciao.com you get the horror knows even another stroller that fits in the S60?? The consultation in the so-called specialized trade can be forgotten smoothly, that also affects the children’s seats. If you don’t read in and try it yourself you are opened up Ciao, Eric, who doesn’t want to buy a V70 because of that!!!

  • Should I buy an XC90?

    Dear Forum Fellows, my question may seem a little strange, but it is serious to me: It is about deciding whether I should buy a new car this year or next year. My current FZ, V70, full equipment, EZ 04/2004, now has 165Tkm on the counter, next year I will definitely exceed the 200Tkm limit. The vehicle is paid off. I am very satisfied with the car, it drives well, reliable and comfortable, also for the family (2 children, 1 dog) is enough space, so no objective reason to change. After some emotional moments (new car is always great, and I find the XC90 also great!) I come to the sober realization that another car does not offer me any real added value either, so only the question arises whether an economic disadvantage arises due to the fact that I still wait with the replacement purchase. Factors that for a new purchase (or a new car order, it should be a new car by the way) are still in 2007, as well as to a possible high discount for the first part of the quota, not used for the next part of the price, but for the next part of the price.

  • Purchase advice S60 D5 185PS

    Hello, since the search has not been cleverly puffed out I create a new topic. since I am not satisfied with my BMW I plan a car change for next summer. To choose from the new C-Class 220CDI and the S60D5. I would be interested in how the engine is with 185hp? Consumption, durability, stacking…? And since it is a five-cylinder whether it is noisy? How is it processed in the interior? Are there also bie S60 flapping noises in the interior? Is it noisy on the AB? How are the automatic transmissions at Volvo? Are they vulnerable? Do they last long? Or is it more likely to recommend a manual transmission? Also because of reselling! What is the difference between an automatic and Geartronic? Was there, and if, when a FaceLift at the S60? What was everything changed? My first post in the Volvo forum and immediately 1000 questions Thank you for the answers Alex

  • XC90 (5D) for multi- and long-distance drivers? What are the experiences

    Hi all, I’m about to order an XC90 and I’m looking for experience reports from many and long-distance drivers. I’m thinking of the 5D as a 7-seater with automatic. For this purpose I always had Audi, BMW and Mercedes as association, not necessarily VOLVO. But I’ve recently received positive reports – especially about the diesel engine. How are the experiences? Greeting slummy

  • which transmission at V70 I 2.3 T5

    Moin, I need a replacement gearbox for my Volvo V70 I 2.3 T5 built in 1997. Engine: B5234T3 The 5 gear manual gearbox with a translation of 4,00:1 is searched for by someone who knows which part number is right for this vehicle? I have received several contradictory statements from dealers. Also with Google the confusion is larger than smaller. 36050253 Was mentioned to me by the Volvo workshop. However, at ebay I find only the indication that this number should fit only to the 2.0 T. ??? The same workshop has given me the original number 1208922. However, according to my research this is an automatic gearbox, which is right next to it. 36050416 Did I find at a shop for revised gearboxes. Others thought that this only fits for the V70 II. ??? 36050419 Was it still possible for me somewhere.

  • To the hand switches : cable jacks offer

    For the 850 and S/V/C70 switches, I have a few sockets that have to be mounted between the switching ropes and transmissions. The parts have been created from Teflon. Volvo sells these parts not only completely with the switching ropes A set costs 20€ incl. the Segering rings and Porto in the envelope. At Europeean Tuning there is the alleridings slightly changed shape and 2x expensive installation is quite simple : air filter must be removed, the fuse must be removed (reused) then switch rope out, old rubber bush out, new in, Segering on it, fuse on it, air filter back. Advantages are a much more direct switching. Payment and handling via PN. 10 sets are still to have, 3 are already sold. If the demand becomes very large I can still make them, but then it takes about 2 months until I have them. Greeting Cristian
