  • Diesel Particle Filter Transport How?

    I got my FK3 in 2007. With particle filters. Tax ( about 350 EUR ) the state has already collected immediately. According to news, however, should from now on give a promotion. Does anyone have experience with it? How do you have to apply for it? Where should I register to have my money or part of it back???

  • “Pooled” on/in the roof?

    At my S40 there is a lot of polter on the roof or on the roof of the car. At first I thought that I would have liked something on the roof, but it comes regularly at least 1x per ride. Mostly after about 10 minutes the first time. I assume that there is pressure somewhere (heaven / roof), which triggers some such effect ?! Had a half-dead Opel Vectra on loan years ago, the roof on the AB barked out again, that sounded so similar (of course much louder). Does anyone have an idea ??! Greetings $id

  • Does the radio fit?

    Hello all, I have a new radio to buy for my Volvo V70 I Built 99. To be exact this one here.https://www.kenwood.de/car/multimedia/moniceiver/DMX120BT/ A colleague would give me his used one because he bought a new car and didn’t need the old radio. He just meant the iso adapter and a frame. Can one of you confirm this? Greetings from Lauchimvolvo

  • Would you buy a Volvo V50 again ???

    I’ve been driving my third Volvo for three years and I’m very happy with my car dealership and my V50. Now I wonder if it makes sense to buy the same Volvo again at all! Of course now you know exactly which extras are important and which ones can be dispensed with. But basically you spend 10,000 € and drive almost the same car again. As an alternative, you can buy almost the same car. I have considered an Audi A4 2.0 TDI Avant with S-Line in Avussilber metallic with this equipment. Is EZ 10/06 and has run 2500km! Bi-Xenon light (Xenon plus), navigation system (with MMI operating logic BNS 5.0), seat heating front, front seats height adjustable, automatic air conditioning, traction control, 6x airbag, parking aid rear, sports suspension, ZV with remote control, mobile phone preparation, electric window lifter 4-way, multifunction sports/leather steering wheel (S line multifunction sports leather steering) wheel in 3-spoke design quattro GmbH), sports package (S line sport package advanced quattro GmbH), light package, gloss package, arm support front, roof railing (dachreling blank), power steering, aluminium rims (light metal wheels18″ in 15-spoke design with tyres 235/40 R 18 quattro GmbH), outdoor temperature, on-board computer, heat protection glazing (darkened panes), fog lights, interior mirror autom. blinding, sports seats, exterior mirror electric and heated, headrests front and rear, individual installation of the quattro GmbH, 12 volt socket in the trunk, rear seat, foldable, Business Comfort,

  • Volvo v60 I diesel engines

    Hello together, since we are about to have the first child, we want to buy (of course) a Volvo. The choice has fallen on the V60 with diesel. Unfortunately, for me the engine range is a bit confusing; if I understand that correctly, the engines were changed at some point BJ15. What is not clear to me: have all the engines since this conversion Euro 6 and all before Euro 5? Has otherwise big something changed? Theoretically, the consumption of the newer engines should be slightly less unfortunately this also seems not to be quite clear to the car dealerships, we looked at today first a supposed Euro 6 which then only had Euro 5… Specifically it is also about: We just took a V60 D2 Ocean Race with EZ12/2015 here in the corner into the closer choice, which is specified by the seller with 115hp and Euro6 – is this combination at all possible? Shouldn’t a Euro6-D2 have 120hp?

  • Inspection at V70 D II + 50,000 km

    Hello together! I have bought my Volvo V70 II diesel 2.4 liters for about 1.5 years now. I used it at the time. At the time of delivery the 2nd inspection was done. Now the car has been annoying for 4 months that I should do the next inspection after all. After the Volvo dealer here in Cologne did not react to an mail, I called today. For the 3rd inspection (with me as mentioned canpp 50,000) they want to have nevertheless smooth 550 euro. In addition still new disk wipers. Here ha b i don’t have a price. I expected 300 euros. But these are prices that are beyond my imagination. And when they find something then it starts. What do you have to pay for prices like this? … or am I just very sensitive???

  • ABS control unit – Where installed? (Abs lights up..)

    Hello Volvo fans, I have a Volvo 850 with which the ABS lamp lights up and I have to pass the Tüv. I have already read a lot and just tap on the cold soldering points (or hope it is) as it is classic with the 850. I have read out the error 4-4-4 was the first one. He cannot be deleted. The lamp does not go out. To the vehicle: Volvo 850, EZ 11/1994, Kombi I would like to expand the control unit and check the soldering points. But I can’t find it. can someone tell me where it is? Would be very grateful about quick help. Sincerely 0x7

  • BLIS in urban traffic – error messages and problems

    Hey, I wanted to talk to the other BLIS drivers among us. My BLIS doesn’t seem to get along super well with city traffic and sometimes gets annoyed. It comes to the following errors: 1.) Warning right after the start: BLIS: Maintenance required The LEDs and cameras work completely normal, however, as always. BLIS restarting in this case does not bring anything, the message remains. However, if I restart the car, the error message is gone. That happens once every 2 weeks. 2.) BLIS: Camera blocked, corresponding LED flashes This is the most annoying thing about the system. In the dense traffic this message comes several times on my daily routes. Last week the system shot down the bird and played crazy 4 times (!!) on 18km city traffic – sometimes right, sometimes left. Here are several possibilities: a) car restart, BLIS initia It’s new and the error is gone b) let it flash for about 30 seconds, which unfortunately distracts enormously until the camera realizes that it’s not blocked and continues to work normally c) turn off BLIS. If you start it again, the LED flashes but cheerfully on – then you have to wait as with b) until the electronics calm down themselves. I usually only know one with BLIS, but it doesn’t drive in city traffic as I did and had the warning “BLIS maintenance required” never before. Does another BLIS driver know something about this? I am therefore a bit on the foot of the war with BLIS – it is hardly to be used in daylight, because the LEDs are too dark and do not sit in the mirror, as for example with Mercedes, where you always look. In the city it generally brings very little (but is sometimes really helpful), but always I don’t want to turn it off – rarely there are moments where BLIS is helpful. However, I will never fix anything on the system, daf it’s just too expensive with too little use for me. But if there are software updates or little tricks, I’d love to hear them…
