hello together, drive a 440er 1.8i with 90ps and have the problem in cold or wet weather that the car runs totally rough and restless. when giving gas sit everything great, but as soon as you walk off the gas and let the car roll in the still gas or on straight track only with even gas the car runs as said totally rough, restless and constantly vibrates. in warm weather and sunshine that does not occur at all… I recently had the error memory read out, o-ton: “A vacuum air temperature sensor false/no signal” … can this possibly come from this? has any of you had similar experiences, possibly also with another vehicle, and can give me a tip? thank you oh yes: spark plugs and cables I have also renewed…

I bought myself a Volvo 480 ES together with my brother he drives himself great and is also quite fine but he has some flaws ! at the sliding roof it drips in ! I am sure however that it is an original sliding roof , what can I do against it an Arbeistskoleg said that in original sliding roofs always hide small slurry which end in the B column and there the water runs off but if these are clogged ? Is that true I wanted to ask before I shoot Then I would have asked a general question.What does the ES mean at mienem Volvo ? ? ? There is the 480 even without these letters ! there is something else important to consider with this model series (or something special that I don’t know yet ) I am grateful for every answer that makes me my new (old) Volvo representative ! Thank you very much

Hello all moose holders. I haven’t been here for quite a while now. Exactly as long as I didn’t have my 460s, because it worked absolutely reliably until last week. Until last week,four days before he was due to tuv… He didn’t pass the tuv thanks to the (again defective LWR) but that’s not my biggest problem at all-is now converted to electric and good.The following big problem I have(and I would be grateful for any helpful advice, because all of me a Even the omniscient WWW knew nothing to report! So: 2 weeks ago, for the first time during the ride, both spotlights turned off, i.e., ONLY the dipped light was suddenly off. I stopped irritated, but before I could check the fuses, the light was on again! After another 5 minutes again, 2 minutes later again. So I went back to the right and looked for wobble candidates: nothing to find, everything fixed. All plugs are cor The next evening everything was normal again and I wanted to relax already, but that didn’t last long. I visited someone and on a sticky road…light out! Great feeling, say’ you… (ALL others at lighting like stand and main light, interior lighting, rear lights… etc funniest perfectly and all fuses are ok)I then ventured under escort protection(after the lamps burned again) home-they burned all the time! Then came the day of the Tüvbesuchs and I sincerely hoped that the lamps wouldn’t fail the service – which they didn’t do either. Puh… Unfortunately, I can’t get them on since yesterday (they went out on the way to work), the fog lamp either (I know that it only goes in connection with the headlights, but it’s also the indicator for it and it’s not there. The bulb is healing, security too) Maybe the headlights run over a relay? Can one of you tell me what that is? can? I can only drive during the day and in 3 weeks at the latest I have the 2nd appointment at the Tüv… It is really urgent and important. If something like this has happened to anyone I would like to know a remedy. Many greetings and many thanks in advance

Hello dear Volvo driver. The Tüv does not let me drive, because my light range regulation does not work. Have both headlights removed and blown with a compressor at the air entrance. There it pushed the reflectors slightly forward. So the work. Always thought the would work with underpressure like the rest of the engine controllers. From the white air ducts comes no air. Question: Where do I have to look, I have to decompose inside the paneling at the pedals? In the motor aum I can find nothing eye-catching about this. Greetings Funkentod.

Hi people when I went to work this morning with my Volvo 480 S Built. 92 and during the rain the windows started at the front and the back (although I had the blower on cold standing) I was a little surprised and took a little look at it during the lunch break. Through the left rear light hood water comes through, because it has a crack. Since the apertures both tinted, I will need new ones and there comes my question: Where do I get a few cheap fit When I open the hood and look at the blower, normally there would have to be bars for it, but I didn’t and then I wanted to ask: Where do I get the matching bars? And now the big question: Why does the rear window start (sweats) I know, but where does it come from, that the windshield also starts from the inside, even though I put the blower cold on it??? And now the last question: In my Volvo is a kind of foam carpet in the trunk, So to speak as a floor. Of course, he sucked himself full of water. Do I have to change him, or is it enough if I hang him a little on the heating until he is dry? Greetings Tobi

Hello, some time ago we had voted to set up another subforum for the “old” series 3XX, 4XX. Unfortunately, this has been postponed until now, because there is a desire to “overall” change the structure of the subforums. In addition, it is also about the length of the textual description of our foren, which is generally a bit long. Well, here I stand now. . . . . . . I could live well with the previous structure, just add the 3XX, 4XX, but can They cut down the terms, but how?

Hi to all Volvojaners (especially at Ober Guru Oli :-)) Now I have to know something: What do some have against the 4xx series of Volvo. I find that these cars are quite successful, especially in sports. Light, powerful engines, beautiful cockpit and good equipment. That they apparently like to have childhood diseases, I wouldn’t say exactly, since I now have 3 4xx and all 3 run like one for 2 years. The brakes are to be made regular, but the Prob The only major damage I had was the starter with my 440 Turbo and a headlight engine with the 480 Turbo but otherwise I am completely happy with the cars. You will never reach the flair of one of my 240, but they are not bad in my opinion and they deserve the Volvo beam. What do you think??? MfG Patrick
