…moin girls!!! I had to save the life of an elk today! (That’s why I couldn’t get you into the bag in OT Fred!) That’s my 300€ project now! So a little bit of a moose in the net! Ah kuckse ma here. Elch. 300 Talers. Kollega called, you time? YES? All clear. Blacky hot the little elk lady! she’s black (black is beautiful!) 103kw automatic leather steering wheel glass sliding roof 322TKM ridden 3rd hand Tracs Tempomat no AHK CALLED MÄNGEL: rear flap damper flat mirror glass driver side missing Ziggi lighter without function (safe whole) 2 new tires have to go on front (185/65R15) INNRAUM SIETH FROM HOW THE SAU! So full dust / cum /usw. driver seat has still got to be quiet in the back. Otherwise everything is ok. Rest of the equipment, as new! the dog rides. I will read tomorrow the error from dry. 120. So nothing else.

Moin, I have a question: My new elk doesn’t have nivomates. We drive by car at least once a year for a tent holiday to Scandinavia and the box is fully loaded – family tent, chairs, table, clothes for 2 adults and two active sheets, bicycles on the roof or rear dran… that’s already going to work well. I now have some shit before such a load in connection with normal dampers and front wheel drive and Swedish gravel runways and 2,000 km in three weeks of holiday. So far I had a HA combi with level control (BMW). Is the V70 still good to drive with full load or is that not so great? Bring reinforced springs something or would it be appropriate in this case, but to upgrade to Nivomate? The Monroe Liftklamotte is not a solution for me; I have read too much bad about it. What the conversion costs is clear to me. Greetz, Tschok

hey people I recently bought a 850 awd blue 97 180 000 km for 300 euro. want to listen to me, what experiences you have with 850 awd. mine has zero rust except rear flap. however, the cardan shaft has horrible play. then still as small as brake slurry and antr.well.manschatten. convinced me the interior equipment. leather and wood steering wheel are noble. moreover if it has sailed or cold it is not right. so if the lpt should come he has something like setters. what could that be? end cable/distributor? because then it needs full juice? besides motor control lamp lights up. salesman says it’s not bad at 850/v70 general error. tester shows any error air mass sensor or any sensor. if you know of such a mistake please tell and experience! thank you!

Hello, I’m about to buy a V70 2,2 Built 9/98. The good piece has now run 265 tkm and is first hand. The engine runs silky soft. Nothing jerks or clatters. The body is stainless. The equipment includes air conditioning, ABS and leather. What bothers me about the good something is the bright ABS lamp. Where can this come from and what are your experiences with it. How high is the cost of spare parts in general and special in the area ABS. Sensor, pump etc. At Volvo I know unfortunately zero. I am grateful for everything. Greetings, Klaus

I think it happened! I had a hard time getting into a Volvo 850 2.5-10V. Year of construction 1996, 230,000 KM and pretty much rocked. So I’m sure I’ll need a lot of help to keep it alive. However, on a first short test drive, there were no serious deficiencies for me laymen to identify, only the track was not quite faithful and pulled a little to the right and the rear wiper is defective. Do you have a good tip to whom I can turn in the area of Braunschweig when my low technical skills and skills are exhausted? Find only Fränki Schmelzer in Braunschweig as a dealer, there are still good free people who know about the moose.

Hello so my 850 iger(2.0 l Benz.) ruckelt ,bockt ….was now already x times in the workshop… was made the following. new distributor cap new spark plugs new moisture and dust seal the symptom remains the same water penetrates minimally into the distributor cap …comes barely 3 km far …. the engine runs in idle time up with the speed …time down …stutters and goes out sometime….whole thing …was so happy with the car… the mechanker is also now speechless… need help by the way ..have with my phone the ticks in picture and sound if someone is interested…

Hello in the round! Unfortunately my favorite toy has said goodbye to my oil burner – the cruiser doesn’t make a sound anymore. Engine control light was on at times, error reading revealed a defective pedal switch on the brake. So switches changed, errors deleted – and the cruiser still doesn’t like. However, the error is not set again. Now I have 2 suspects: On the one hand the turn signal lever or its div. cruiser switch, on the other hand the responsible control relay. However, the search for forum revealed for me contradictory information, which relay is now affected (once 101-102, once 106) Is there meanwhile secured information for this purpose? And if yes, what part number does the relay have or what does it look like, so that I can look around a corresponding part of the butcher? Or maybe someone has a corresponding lying around, which I can use for a sample and possibly acquire…

Hello, after the search function could not answer my question I simply ask the question here. In my 850er BJ94 MJ95 comes from the middle vents only cold air. If I close both, it mixes with the warm air on the outsides (the air flow outside becomes cooler). Does someone know the problem and can give me a hint, what I should look at first. In addition, a squeaking out of the right vent comes. To the grid only the ventilation tube goes. Where exactly the blower is located to oil something there? Achso the car has the climate automatic, if that serves the analysis. So far… Thank you Janko

Dear Elk friends Since I have to take care of my moose myself primarily for financial reasons, I would like to have a suitable tool with which I can perform a first error analysis. I found information on this topic by using the search function too, but I lack a final answer to the following question: Can DICE read out before 1999 vehicles or not? Does anyone of you have a DICE lying around and can report first hand? These DICE devices incl. the VIDA-SW are available according to Internet incl. inch so from 110 Euro – I would even spend that. Since my car is a 98 model, it would be a pity if the investment were for free. For the DICE predecessors, i.e. the VCT2000 devices one has to interpret a lot more money… The alternative would be FCR as hopefully organisable full version.

Hello Volvo V70 driver, recently owner of a V70 with 2.5 TDI engine from Audi. I drove a BMW 318 TDS before. I have to admit, there are worlds between the cars. The V70 is a great vehicle. The info ́s that I got in advance over the V70 almost all correspond to the information. I am disappointed however about the consumption. Here I was told that the 2.5 TDi does not consume more than 7-8 liters even on a short distance. However, mine needs 10.5 liters. Is that normal or what this could be. Thank you for your info ́s greeting Wolfgang
