  • Water in the footroom of Volvo V70I passenger side

    Moin together, I found in the footroom passenger side front and back water the carpet was already pissing. So carpets out, insulation out and dry made. I now found that the water comes from a hose that ends in the middle tunnel. I also took a picture, one can tell me what this is for a hose and whether this can be the problem. I would be very pleased about a feedback.

  • Engine’s running out of gear.

    Dear people. Even when I am on holiday, I am probably in my head too often with my Volvo. Well. In any case, sometimes you hear fleas coughing. It runs great for now. Only when the engine is turned off so rough. But it starts very well. On D and R it also vibrates more than usual in the stand. On P is quiet. But that’s the way it has been since the beginning of September. At first I thought the upper engine bearing is over the Jordan again, but no. It’s also new, like all the other bearings in the front. Any idea? Don’t hope it’s the gearbox?

  • Collectable thread for stickers

    Moinsen Herd! First of all: BITTE KOMPLETT AND AufMERKSAM READ! Some time ago I had the idea in the TÜV thread of the Dieter to have a few (bitge) stickers made. I now got a sample and collect first interest statements… There is an image in the appendix! (Translation may you yourself! )Prices per piece: Up to 10 pieces (not per person!): 9,50€ incl. shipping within Germany From 10 pieces (dito): 7,50€ incl. shipping within GermanyThe included shipping of Sizes/colours: min. 15cm width max.: 52cm width color freely selectable There must be at least 3 pieces together, so that there is no small amount surcharge. Therefore, it is not ordered. If you are interested, please send a short message here in the thread (so that it remains transparent for all) and a PN to me with: quantity, width and color I collect 1-2 weeks, depending on the frequency. Then I announce the quantity and the corresponding price and then it goes to the Financial incl. delivery addresses, the order is triggered. Since this is all private nature, there is logically no guarantee/guarantee on the stickers. If you do not agree with this, you know what to do. Greeting Julian

  • Volvo doesn’t get really warm

    Hello again… great that this works so well with the forum. Now I noticed something else with my Volvo. Again the data: 850 2,5 10V, year 3/94 and 196tkm I drove 140km highway at -3C outdoor temeperature. I noticed that the temperature indicator is almost not moving at all…In the interior it gets warm, but normally the display should go further higher when driving on the highway and the interior should heat up properly. the city, the needle moves and the car gets warmer, although the display only goes just above the first line, but when driving on the highway it even falls under the first line. Is this normal? An acquaintance of mine drives the 940, which has the same problem. Is it the thermostat? He does not lose water, are also no bubbles in the balance tank.

  • Function Lufi hot air valve

    Hello together, since my moose doesn’t really pull on the mountain, I looked at the warm air flap at Lufi. Result: The thermostat works (fön) and the warm air flap closes in the test. However, I’m not sure if the function also works during the ride. By pulling off the warm air riffle hose there was at least subjectively already a little more passage – if you can say that with the engine. In my version suction cups (106,10V, MJ 97) are on the lid of the luf i Box 2 connections for “slurry”. One goes from the lid to the thermostat, the other is missing with me – I guess there should be a connection between the engine / suction bridge and Lufi box. Unfortunately, I don’t know since when this is missing, since the Lufi box had to be out several times already. Is the connection to the thermostat as seen on the picture correctly connected (so the top)? Are both “slurry” necessary for the correct function of the thermostat? And if yes, w o is the connection on the motor side? Another consideration: Just put the warm air flap to death, as it is not relevant for gas operation (LPG), even as spring is approaching. What do you mean. Thank you and good driving.

  • LMO Theme No 999

    Dear Volvo fans, a lot of contributions have already been written about this topic, so many that I no longer have the overview, so here’s my question as follows: With my V70 R AWD (year 1997) the ABS and TRACS OFF lamp is burning permanently since today. After a longer service life (about 4 months), I moved the moose again last Friday, while about 30km were burning the two control lights, I thought spontaneously of a crappy ABS sensor. I thought, great, the problem has been solved. I drove away from home again this morning and the two lights burn again. When the exhaust gas test was done and read out the error memory for a short time, it says that the ABS pump is defective. The error cannot be deleted. I have now read in various articles that even if this is not possible, the error is not correct. the lights no longer run out, the ABS control unit had to be soldered after, or at least the error was on the ABS control unit. And not as diagnosed, the ABS unit or the ABS pump. Normally this error indicates the burning of several lights (including engine control lamp), as well as partly the failure of the speedometer and the emergency running operation, so I also knew it from an earlier V70 of me. Now my question: Are there different symptoms for the same problem? Problem case 1: ABS and TRACS OFF lights burn permanently. Problem case 2: ABS, TRACS OFF and motor control lamp burn, speedometer fails, motor electronics falls into emergency running program. Do both problem cases point to a defective ABS control unit? I don’t want to know now how to fix one or the other problem, but only a qualified statement whether in both cases the same error exists. Thank you very much for your help.

  • Volvo 850 Wheel Bearings Change or Resize Possible?

    Hello user, with my parents-in-law the wheel bearing at the front of the driver’s side makes noise. Would you like to take a closer look at this today and since I don’t have much on my hat with Volvo, I would rather ask in advance here. Unfortunately I don’t know the level of the volume! But can I pull the wheel bearing or help fatter what, or does the 850 only ask for an exchange? If exchange, I can do this with Abziegher myself or rather drive to the workshop and what costs are in Thanks for your answers. Oh yes the 850 is year 93, 2.5 ltr. 5 Zyl. Greeting Andy

  • False coolant

    Moin, the new moose has the color according to G12 as coolant in it, in my other moose I have the original G11 from Volvo. The colors also differ red and blue. I would like to release the “wrong” coolant completely and put the G11 on it, but have read once that the two should not mix with each other. How can I get the complete “wrong” coolant out of the cooling circuit? Gruß Flo

  • Presentation

    Good evening parish. I was last November looking for us, my girlfriend and myself, a big car. We drove at the time a Mazda 626 as a limousine, then needed for us and the old dog a bigger one. We wanted to buy a station wagon, drove up to Duisburg for Nissan and Mazda, but at no time thought of a V70. We found the Mazda already around the corner and now he stood there. A black V70, as Black Line with leather full equipment, as 2.5 and with 144 Ps. and even more. The paint looks very good. I was in love immediately. The car only needed an oil and brake fluid change and 2 crossbars and then he got 2 years Tüv. Because the car does not even have rust, I will hopefully drive it for a very long time.
