  • Purchase of spare parts

    Hello! Since the extensive use of the search function did not help me, I open up a new topic. I know that in some Fred times links were mentioned, but I did not find it again. So the following: with me (or my elch v40 bj. 01/97 1.8 l 115 hp;184000 km) a few smaller reperatures are necessary, which I would like to do with the help of a expert friend. Since I also want to get the parts myself, I need help from you. Maybe you can also give me tips, with which you have had good experiences. The following things are: – air filter – oil plus – filter – Stabi’s rear axle – pollen or interior filter – brake blocks front – lock back (has someone experiences with it?) – ignition candles – shock absorbers (where I want to have them tested again, since I lack a comparison) – luggage cover holder at the back Otherwise my elch (laut durchsicht) makes a very good impression! Neither rust nor Macken! I thank you for the help for your Leo service already!

  • Buy this Volvo V40 T4 ??

    Hello dear Volvo community, I might like to buy the following Volvo V40 from private: Volvo V 40 T4 black metallic EZ: 01/2000 KM: 94,000 manual transmissions TÜV/AU: 01/2009 Special equipment: air conditioning, Volvo CD radio, metallic and fog lights. The condition should be flawless. Garage vehicle. Accident-free. 1. Hand, stapled, non-smoking. Winter tyres are also included (all tyres in good condition – profile approx. 6-7mm). The seller wants EUR 8,600,- and is ready to take the Volvo a test at the DEKRA (DEKRA seal). What do you think about this offer? Is the price ok? And another question: I would like to upgrade the Volvo to car gas after purchase (about EUR 2150,- cost). I drive about 15,000km a year. Do you think the upgrade makes sense, given the age and the running performance of the Volvo?

  • Engine damage XC70III

    Good morning, so yesterday evening it happened. My first engine damage in the course of my driver’s history. When driving quickly on the motorway the engine slowed down very strongly to approx. 80 km/h and then the warning came in the display “motor maintenance urgently necessary”, shortly afterwards the second message “cooling medium level low, immediately stop”. When looking into the rear mirror I saw it then also: white smoke clouds rose up. I knew so far only from the Formula 1. I drove immediately to the right on the stand strip and waited for the ADAC, which attested a very probable head damage. Then with the tug to the . Now I am really curious what that could be. I was very upset. Especially since I had to cancel all appointments and had to take all the fun with ADAC/towinger/Is rental car, about 4 hours cost me. It is my first Volvo, therefore my question. Had someone from you already such a total loss?

  • D5er dreams of the VDU in the Volvo

    Hello, I’ve almost become a fan of low or entry-level engines in the meantime. I always like the V70III better, even though I still couldn’t drive it in the 2.0D version. What I noticed is that the small diesel engine is not available with automatics. First I was disappointed. Today I get the information that Ford will install the new 6-speed “Power Shift Dopplungsgerriebe” in the new Focus in early 2008 at the 2.0TDCI for the first time. So could it be that Volvo will also get access to this transmission and therefore is only in wait?! Who has experienced a DSG that is not only more economical and comfortable, but also that one can move a vehicle very sportyly. There should say again Ford brings nothing to Volvo ….. Greeting Martin

  • V70 III really a swallowing woodpecker ???

    Hello dear elk community, I follow these pages as often as I can. Unfortunately, for reasons of time I can only rarely participate. Especially the contributions to the consumption of the new V70 ́s or XC70 ́s interest me very much at the moment, since my V70 D5 II. elk is slowly getting older. So a new elk has to come. However, when I read from you, the consumption values (V70 and XC70 III), I am quite unsure. My V70 D5 from 2002 consumption at 140-150 km/h (BAB) under 7 liters. You don’t have to drive so defensively or even “sleep” for it. My wife created even 6-6,1 liters. (of course, then slower) Did someone already get from you to drive the new V70 under or by 7 liters? (of course without a traffic change to have become?) Are the factory figures still realistic at all? Then, what does the XC70 III or the AWD have to consume? If the new really consume between 8.5-10 liters, then maybe I have to think about a bit of a bit of a bit more than a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit.

  • S80 – Cracking during load change (pre- and reset)

    Hello Volvo driver, for a short time my S80 has had a relatively loud cracking in the range of the right drive shaft, drive shaft joints, wheel mount (at least in this area). This happens when I park for example and set back and forward. If I drive backwards, there is a unique cracking. If I then switch into the first gear and let the clutch come, it cracks again. It feels as if there is a certain game in the drive train. At least this reports my highly sensitive popometer. The cracking occurs also in this context of the advance and reset. Otherwise there is peace of mind. First investigations showed that the tap of the drive shaft in the wheel hub should be used again with Loctite. However, it should not be worrying (so the master of my Volvo workshop). Can anyone share this experience or even confirm it? Greeting to all Volvo enthusiasts S-eighty

  • XC90 Ocean Race D5 – Question about offer and DPF

    Hello everyone. I drove an S80 until 2009 and rather by chance saw a nice XC90 at a dealer who jumped right into my eye. What do you think about this offer: XC90 D5 Ocean Race, 185PS, hand switch, Blaumet., Xenon, PDC, telephone, e. seats, driver seat with memory, cruisemat, disks darkened at the rear, level control, 5 seaters, etc. EZ: 08/2008, approx. 57.000km, 1. Hd., checkbook, makes a very well-kept – almost new impression. It should cost including new TÜV and 1 year warranty 28,000.-€. At the moment I drive a Zafira petroler, because I had serious problems with a passat with DPF. Actually I don’t want any more diesel, but the Xruck90 as a petroler will probably be a bit more expensive in maintenance. My question is now how it looks at the D5(185PS) on a long view, if you drive only country road? I have a duty of approx. 25km.

  • Change XC60 D3/D4 fuel pump

    Our otherwise very reliable XC60 Diesel doesn’t like to start any more. Completely fault-free off, he nudged the following day and didn’t jump any more. The Yellow Angel diagnoses “fuel pump”, which sits very advanced on the tank top of this model. Unfortunately not accessible from the interior. So all kinds of things have to be removed from below and finally dismantled the tank. Is there by chance someone in the forum who has already done this procedure before? I would be happy about all the tips! Greeting Smaxx
