  • Blinker control

    Hello werte Gemeinde I bought a new moose about 2 months ago. (850, year of construction 95)http://www.ebay.de/…/261524657199?… So far everything is in order and also the TÜV in mid-August he got unreserved. Unfortunately the then salesman is no longer available for me (why always) and therefore I have to ask the question here. He has installed a “blinker control” for the good one, which worked well until a few days ago. I don’t know where to start with a troubleshooting. Do you have any ideas? Best regards!) But unfortunately, it’s no longer possible. And since I don’t have so much screwdriver knowledge, I don’t know where to start with a troubleshooting.

  • Volvo 850 Limousine 1st Series BJ.1991

    Hi, everybody! I’m about to buy a long sought-after car, namely a 850er as a limo in ruby red metallic with beige interior equipment, BJ. 91 The vehicle corresponds exactly to my idea in terms of colors and extras (e.g. glass sliding roof, AHK, climate, fog lights etc.) The mileage is 215 000. Since I don’t have much experience with the cars of the first series, I would be interested to know which weaknesses you have to pay particular attention to here, which is very difficult. (The KM counter has been broken recently, i.e. probably VDO, climate works) Thank you! PS: Was there 91 already the stainless steel entry rails as accessories, is the antenna always electric? The car should mature for a longer period of time to the oldtimer, therefore I aspire to the original condition

  • Valve shaft seals from Elring or rather original Volvo

    Hey guys, I want to go up to Hamburg soon and change my valve shaft seals with Markus. I had already ordered the material (VSD and Simmerrings) from Elring from a friend over the workshop. Markus advised me yesterday to the original ones of Volvo. I don’t want to question Markus’ advice here. I trust in his experience. But I have the things there and can’t return them without loss (20%). So I wanted to I don’t want to start the whole thing from the beginning after 20tkm. After the 2nd engine change in 1.5 years I (and especially my wife) have slowly enough work on the engine. Who actually produces the seals for Volvo. Thanks for the discussion. Janko

  • cold draught in passenger footroom

    Hey guys, are just on the highway and my wife is driving. Doesn’t happen so often that I sit right. Now I noticed that it’s cold in the passenger footroom. Even if the heater is on max.. Hot air comes from the nozzle, but if I continue the paneling towards the splash screen button, the cold air comes from there. I can feel something like a pipe or panel. Is such a problem known? Where does the cold train come from? Thanks Janko

  • Climate control panel aperture V70

    Hello, I recently purchased a V70 TDI BJ 99, on which the center console was completely removed and made of wood an aperture for an ipad. Now, of course, I want to rebuild this and need the necessary parts. My question is this, can you change the air conditioning unit for the other one? There are apparently two different user parts for the V70. One with slider for the ventilation and one with rotary regulator. Have attached pictures.

  • Volvo C70, low oil pressure warning light

    Hello together, the ‘low oil pressure’ warning light started to glow yesterday. I would like to ask you what this can mean in concrete terms? Here are some photos to verify my problem. I thought about too little oil at first. The oil level was a little low but not worryingly low. I have been driving 30 kilometers since then and would have to drive about 90 kilometers to my home tomorrow. Is that realistic? I am still a little inexperienced with cars and I can’t find a car. it imagining what else can be a reason for too little oil pressure except that there might be a lack of oil. Is there such a thing as an oil pump and does it no longer work properly? Would I be very happy about suggestions for solutions, tips and reviews.

  • V70R remote control away Safelock activated

    Servus friends, I would like to buy a 1996 “R”. Automatic. The seller has decommissioned the remote control. Now safelock is activated and you only come in through the trunk. Car starts and drives. All 4 doors can not be opened from the inside or from the outside. Not electric and not mechanical. (door handles do not work. Switch ZV does not work) The remote control seems hopeless. Who knows remedy? How can I get the doors open? The whole one bit with Zei tdruck. I want to pick up the car Saturday. And yes: it’s a R And yes: there’s safelock And no: I’m not in front of the car right now I’m looking forward to your constructive suggestions and help offers Gruss Matthias

  • Volvo V70 2.4 is too loud for me?

    Hello thanks for the recording. Drive a v70 2.4 with 103 kW of 99 for a week. But I find it tackers me too loud. You have to say that it has driven previous owners with 0w40, just as the oil has run out during oil change. Despite fresh oil and hydro impact additive, it nails me too loud. Near the video. Don’t pay attention to the grinding noise. Can also be that I’m paranoid. The car has only run 118,000km https://youtu.be/MjSuYPLHQ0c

  • Rule probe inconspicuous, diagnostic probe…?

    Hello, everybody! I need your swarm knowledge: For some time now there have been errors EFI 463. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0JAg8k74lRSTzlUpgc_8cidwQ This is the diagnostic probe. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0F_bhcrYcGZQ9z4JHmQXYIhfA That’s the control probe. For a few days no more errors come, but the probes are identical from the values. Ampere of the probe heating are the same and stable at both. LMM – value is perfect with 14kg, so next air should be excluded. Exhaust and crusher inconspicuous and performance completely normal. I guess on aging cat. What do you mean? Greetings to the round and thank you for your input in advance! Fredi PS: the diagnostic probe should actually have a half stable value and not such a violent curve course, right?
