Hardly any problem is solved, the next one comes ;-( Short description: I have noticed for a long time that my moose, when I drive a little underboard, squirts briefly, giving the gas. Recently he jumped still quite normal, during the turning manoeuvre however, he went out at the gas output suddenly. Never before had. Then I wanted to start, he also made all appearances that he wanted to start, but the spark did not want to skip. 2-3 minutes later everything was normal again. Lief wie immer, sup i. Today: He jumped normal, was 10 minutes on the road, short stop to copy, wanted to start, but pustic cake, nothing there. Power to start he has, has the full power, but just before skip to the start, he shook himself vigorously, then did not want to start at all. Time and again tried, starter works for start, battery ok, but he did not go on. Then waited 10 minutes, gas pedal kicked 3-4 times into the empty, then tried to start again, suddenly he ran like r, however not round, but shook still in idle. At careful gas he wanted to go out, immediately took away gas and carefully tried to continue until he ran relatively normal. I noticed a lot that he ran round at about 1500 revolutions and at the gas give the first seconds, almost went out again. Does anyone have an idea what’s going on? Greetings

Hi So, there is He now, a 850er 10 V. BJ 1997 with 145tkm on the tacho…….. Some quirks have already noticed, but they are reasonable. Alsdawäre: Drive shaft external joint right: Not yet doll, but soon. Cuff is healed. Get fresh grease lubricated. Questions: + climate automation has a switch with REC. I assume that this is the umluft history. Is it on when the light is shining or off? I mean, the climate is on when the light is off, say on rec hts is switched. + Day skilomters and track counters are without function. Is this a known problem? KM/H display funniest! Can it be that the wave is not completely inside? 2 Stufiges Syste, im Tacho? + Upstairs in the tacho, the small lights don’t function. How the most scrolling? + He has an original Volvo radio in it, that must be out. Is it from behind screwed and how do I get there? + Squeaking driver seat……..without words. + When is the timing belt changed? a sign from Volvo, where apparently the timing belt was changed 2 years ago and is to be changed again at 247000 KM. Right? + Remote control: Under the opening button, is a second placed: What can HE, or not? Would I be pleased to hear from you greetings from Spain and Thank you

Hello everyone! If I put in the reverse gear there is a small back but it does not move! Does anyone have a hint what that can be? All forward gears are running perfectly! It is a 850 GLT 20V

In 2002, before the birth of our son, I bought a well-preserved 850er, with 2.5 L 125 Kw and three years later converted to LPG. Everything wonderful, except for the fact that the indicator for the engine control went on, demand with the retrofitter, lights would be ́no problem, the car drives well. This year on summer holidays ! went off, the car reacts and hangs not properly on the gas.No power, exhaust totally tight, Kat and the two lambda probes changed, car drives is a After a few days, the problem started again, the car is not well connected to the gas, LPG operation is much better, but this condition is of course no solution. Go to the friendly and let the car read out with the diagnostic device, several fault points, point to air mass meters. Got me an LMM ( no original goods ) and replaced, the old one was indeed the glow wire. Problem in petrol operation: stuttering, re The problems seem to disappear when switching to the LPG operation, who knows. My question, do I have to reset the LMM, do only the original LMM, or could this described problem also have other causes. Motor is ok according to the car repair shop. Does someone know a reliable car mechanic in the vicinity of Cologne, who is well acquainted with Volvo? Slowly I really lose my faith, especially a Swede, because I would be very happy about an answer, Moose96

hy mein v70 bj. 11/99 2,4t automatik original 193ps als tacho mit den originalen 205/50/16 als tacho 255 auf 230-240 ist er flott der rest pulls up a little bit, is with chip certainly better? now I measured with the navi, but with winter wheels limited (210kmh) and larger wheels 205 55 16, so a little more rolling circumference and thus less tacholügen result 200 on the tacho were despite the larger wheels 197 als navi (garmin660) what are your values?

Hello Leut ́z, first of all thank you for the many tips and help with my new start in the Volvo fan club. To complete the quite diversified “washing machine thread” with all his doofen beginner problems, here it is – only a few things are missing: – apparently very well maintained. Spurred like a kitten, glove test negative (blast nix). – Timing belts, brakes, exhaust, front axle, battery, windshield, inspection quite new. – By me: Total ignition rattle, Lufi and Th ermostat, solar plexius, plastic wood. – Missing yet: AHK and beeps (existing, but I can’t get off neither bumper nor AHK – must workshop! Sometime aluminium rims, tacho gear, – and then only technical maintenance. Everything works (disk lifters, locks…) But one or the other surely still comes. – 20 years old, about 290,000 km. I have to turn out first. And a few stone strokes ahead, then polish – when it gets warmer. And from April also my Miata is allowed again. 25 years a lt, 170,000 km on the clock, and nothing to craft! It’s just running – and it’s fun! And here are some more photos:

moin moin what do you think about this V70?That’s not sure yet because of the 410tkm….my two volvos (740 and 850 T5) had only 320tkm down. Tüv still has the car until 09/2016, so that almost like new TÜV What would new brakes cost? I calculate with so about 500€ Thanks for your estimates Dankö Barko

Hey community now has to buy a new battery. The old has only 57% left on pocket. Exide Excell EB740 74Ah 680A this should be it. does anyone have experience with this? For info I would be grateful. Greeting Stumpanski

Hello dear Volvisti, I’ve been a little rare lately, but work is going on. And one or the other here knows me (sometimes quite well). On Saturday 07.07.2018 I organize a barbecue at my screwdriver hall. The core of the thing should not be the screws, but the cozy gathering. Grill and coal I provide. Also a box of water and beer. Coffee is also at the start. Shopping possibilities are in the place (you don’t need everything with sc A small exit is also planned. I look forward to numerous guests. Ps: Accommodation is available in the village, sleeping at the hall (in the car) is also possible. LG Jürgen

Moin moin, I have read more often that some would like to meet in the middle of Germany. Here in the beautiful Einbeck we are about 70km from the geographical center of Germany. I would like to know if you would like to hold a day meeting in Northeim, Göttingen, Hann. Münden or the like. I myself unfortunately have no “hall” or a large “parking place” to offer, but you could still be interested in a location Finding out. Greetings
