Hello guys, because I don’t like the “big” free-receiver from Volvo (keyboard in dashboard; 2nd SIM car; handset in the center console) etc. also wg. of the sound not so great, my dealer recommended the BLUETOOTH solution (cost approx.450 €). Does anyone have the thing in the V70 ? Experience with sound and operation ? Where is the Micro ? Radio mute circuit ? … … Are there descriptions about functions, operation and supported devices ( Have a Siemens S75-mobile) Thanks for hints !!!

New emblem / noise
Hello, I have read somewhere that it is not supposed to be a big discovery to attach the new Volvo emblem to a Volvo V50 BJ 2009. Since I can no longer find this page, I have 2 questions about it. First of all it is really not a big effort after time and costs? Somehow I can not find a spare part page where I could find the price for a grill, with new emblem. Thanks in advance. Oh, one question is still. When starting the engine, I always have a „cratch/looping in the engine room” in the cold condition. This is depending on the speed becomes strong, but does not have to go off. As soon as the engine temperature indicator has reached the first beam it is gone. Does this have anything to do with the starter?

RTI Navi controls on the steering wheel
Hello, since yesterday I am proud owner of a VOLvo C70. The vehicle has a Momentum equipment with RTI. During the transfer of the vehicle I confirmed that the control element is missing on the steering wheel, although Navi is present. (Figure no.3) Short to the previous history….The vehicle was purchased at a DB branch. Before the purchase complete check was made by the DB branch and then a service was carried out at VOLVO. The Volvo dealer near me confirmed that the control element on the steering wheel must always be present at the RTI, makes sense also, most importantly no control possible (except with the senseless and cumbersome remote control). I have already contacted the DB dealer, but he twitches with the shoulders. Contractually it is stated that the vehicle had no accidents (according to the previous owner). I suspect that the steering wheel/airbag has been exchanged times. Thanks for your opinion in advance robhh

Starter at Volvo, are there better alternatives?
Hello Volvoprofis, yesterday it turned out that my starter is defective. I drive a Volvo V50 2.0d, on the starter stands FoMoCo (so a Ford starter). Unfortunately a well-known problem with Volvo, however, this starter is not at all of stretch and so I assume the Ford has these problems too. Since Volvo dealers charge outrageous 478€ net for a small stepper motor (starter). Did I ask directly at Ford times, as they demand for the same component 256€ gross. Now I am of the opinion, however, according to various forums, that this starter is scrapped and you might get better from third parties. What is your opinion about this starter, was it possibly improved in the years? or did you have better experience with other manufacturers? Thank you Greeting Philip

XC90 Chiptuning
Hello first of all, the thought of adding an XC90 D5 (185hp) hand switch is maturing more and more in me. But have there again a question, what does it look like with this vehicle with a chip tuning. 1. What did it do with power, PS, torque? 2. What about the fuel consumption? Does this rise? 3. What effect does this have on the insurance and car tax? 4. Which supplier is recommended here? Or have it installed directly by the dealer? 5. Does the Einabu impact on the warranty? 6. How high are the costs for the part + installation? Certainly one or the other has been discussed here in the forum. Have already found different posts. But would be very nice if I could get here again bundled all the info`s. Thanks

Hä?! “Book an appointment for maintenance” at 9,000 KM driven
Hello together, since this morning I have been shown in the display “Book appointment for maintenance”. Even though I only drove about 9000 km with the car. KM stand is now at just over 48000, the 40,000 inspection was preferred at 39,000 km. I bought the car used in February. Can you tell me what this is about? In advance best thanks for your help and many greetings Sebastian

Pear wear
This morning I had to fix “Pos. Luminaires Control” again. That would be: 2 * Fixing the standlight in the back by “knocking on the pear” (want to change it, only once ing again) 2 * Fixed the standlight in the back by changing the bulb (birne was black) 2 * Fixed the brake light in the back by changing the bulb. The car (S60) is Bhj. Oct. 2001 and I drive it since the end of Sep. 2005. Is this wear normal? Before Nissan (Bhj 94) drove and did not have to change a single bulb in 5,5 years. What still bothers me is that if you give a little bit of gas to drive backwaerts etc. the pears light a little darker. If you give n bit more gas they come back to their “normal” luminosity – is that normal?

Problem with the front axle – poltern
I open this thread because there are quite a lot of problems with the front axle. In my case, it is expressed by a rather loud pollination. On cobblestones you can hear it extremely, but even with lower unevenness. Volvo keeps itself covered in this respect and seems to be looking for a cost-effective solution. My workshop does not perform the repair first. A concrete appointment was not mentioned. I would like to hear only the users speak with this deficiency and answer the following questions: Is air suspension available? How exactly does the defect express itself? Was the repair done exactly? Was the repair done successfully? Was the repair done permanently successful? How does the workshop behave?

Inconvenient “comfort” seat
My friend said that I shouldn’t take off my thigh rest. I did that, but it’s a little bit better. It’s not really comfortable. If I take off my thigh rest completely, then I can also feel the crossbar underneath it. What do I do? I weigh 115 kg, so there’s a lot of pressure on the seat. Think about it – especially because after 5000 km the light brown leather already wears the first delicate grey veil – to get a padded cover. I’m spoiled by the train – the last 200.00km of multi-contour seats have been driven with MB air conditioning – the best seats I’ve ever driven. Am I the only one with this problem? What about other heavyweights and long-distance drivers?

Baggage cover XC90 clatters
Only since Friday moose drivers I am of course a little sensitive to noise at the moment… However, my OHL also confirmed to me to hear a clear noise from the area of the cargo space cover – I mean to be able to concentrate this on the right attachment behind the seat row. Is this a known problem for which there is a simple solution? Or do I have to go to my already with such a thing – actually only small stuff – on the sinkel? Greeting Frank, despite flap noises since Friday with internal permanent grinning on the way (outside would probably only look stupid in the long term )
