Hello together, someone had the problem that he had oil under the driver’s foot mat before? Hadn’t done anything so far, because I thought that something had run out of my previous owner, but the oil is currently licking more, silk my servo pump, resp. Servo oil dripping anywhere down. At the back of the foot mat, is a really big oily spot. Unfortunately I can’t see (feeling) whether it is servo oil. I can’t explain where this should come from. Greetings, Anton

Volvo 850 Brummen beim Gasgaben Good evening, I have a question I drive a Volvo 850 144ps automatic with Kat cold-running regulator on Euro 2. When giving gas, the Volvo is already buzzing quite well and I wonder if this is normal? My mechanic thinks the exhaust and fan manifold is fine and that could be normal that it is so buzzing. I also had a 850 with switch before and it didn’t buzz like that. Is it automatic? In a thread over a Mercedes, a flush to Tim Eckhard is recommended.

Hello friends, A new companion has found to us: a V70 from 2005, 140 hp, automatic, 235 000 km, new Zavoli gas system installed 80l tank, ZR new, oils changed etc. ; fun! But now here is the old Bolide and here I need your advice: 850 from 95, 144 hp, automatic, 562 000 km. We have driven this one year and 20000 km actually only long distance … first of all the good sides: Tüv 4/22 engine and gearbox run flawlessly, powerful and soft switching exhaust system up to Kat new 3/21 new light engine 10/21 new axle front left 10/21 The previous owners (one family) have renewed: driver door, rear flap, engine hood Now the difficulties: Vorkat does not function, therefore loud and the engine inspection light burns therefore stone blow in the front window and for us the most difficult: Thanks to the front left the wheel holder is rusted off and let itself be snowy because of lack of mass.

Hello you love, no matter what happens, what I didn’t think a week ago, Volvgang is sold! He goes into good hands to Erlangen, a dear person who knows one who can call seven / eight volvos his own, I think I can also be sure that he can drive there for a while. Maybe this one is also represented here in the forum? I would like to thank all of you here in the forum, who have accompanied me so bravely in the last years, yes, there are also four or five people, to whom I have closer contact and who would like to keep it, you never know how to drive one again. You have been a top team since and I always consider it respectful to keep such old cars running in everyday life. Unfortunately, what I do say unfortunately…, the family, house and hobby in front of the Volvo and if you need this every day, you are dependent on something reliable, so you don’t see the durability, there are always construction sites that you try to place, but I don’t find it faithful to write it all, I don’t want to be healthy in the senses.

It’s me again. I just had to find out when braking the yellow warning light on the left for the braking system. Otherwise everything is normal. Brake lights ok. Brake fluid ok. Then I tried around and had to fix that even when the ignition was switched off the brake lights light. Hmm that is somehow new to me. First I typed a broken brake light but they burn all three. One a little brighter than the other I find. Maybe the brake light switch. When braking I don’t notice anything like always???

Hello dear Volvo community. I have my Volvo at the moment completely repaired, new cylinder it also got. Now I have finished everything so far, My only problem he doesn’t want to start. I tried it with a new battery, it wasn’t because of it. Now I’m very unsleepy where it lies, he has the gasoline and gets also gasoline the dues work. The camshafts also spin. So it’s not the timing. I have no idea if it’s the starter. The end candles are new and the sensors should work jealously as before I also have a plug (see picture) where I don’t have any idea where it belongs. The Pcv system the two outputs wanted to be asked where they are coming from? So I also hear the light roaring of the gasoline pump when the lock is turned on so that they can also be locked out. He just doesn’t want to end right. I hope one can help me.

Dear Schraubengemeinde, my Volvo 850, 2,0l, 126 hp, which runs up to approx. 250 tkm, has for a long time had the following problem: – cold start in all weather conditions without problems – no problems after starting, engine runs round – if engine is switched off after approx. 3 to 15 km long drive, the engine does not ignite with a new start attempt (starter turns, engine may cause some mis-ignitions, but does not start) – after a longer waiting period (larger 25 minutes) engine starts without problems – several workshops are at ease, since problem does not occur there – were replaced there: air volume meters, spark plugs, distribution cap and runner, thermostat valve and the function of the petrol pump – if the engine has been brought back to running after this first stop, it runs without problems for hours! Since I can not make a rhyme on this behavior, I ask for your help! Thank you very much in advance!

Hello together, I am relatively new in the forum and so far silent reader. Since the summer, a Volvo v70 2.4T from 1999 calls itself my own, photos unfortunately I do not have at hand. The car has no air conditioning automatic. As the headline suggests, the Volvo has a problem with the blower. And indeed it only works once in a while, completely unpredictable. I have already found out the following things: If the blower does not run, I then expand the glove compartment and knock with the hand 2-3 times something against the engine starts to run, until it then eventually runs out again. (Measuringly until the next ignition off/on). My guess therefore, the grinding coals are quite down, especially since it is still an original Volvo blower motor, and no retrofit engine. So probably already quite old, if not even the first one. Well, what I have still observed to have: So if the fan is on stage 1 and I switch on the ignition, then the blower never runs to 99%, so it remains to me. If I do not stop the blower of the stage, then I have to think about it’s a bit more often, and then I have a bit more.

Hi people, because of the ever increasing petrol prices and the high savings that can be achieved by an LPG system, I have become increasingly louder and plan next summer the installation of an LPG system. I want to install it myself, that has several reasons, on the one hand because of the costs and on the other because I have the appropriate knowledge as a screwdriver enthusiast and approaching car mechatronics technician and it trusts me especially because it runs coldly down my back with the thought that I have some retrofitter on the carouse snipple…….. however, I let them vote by a specialist. I want only to make the hardware. So much to my background, now comes the question, which manufacturers can you recommend to me and what costs the complete kit? How does it look with the service? With which brand is it best? Does someone already have experiences in terms of tank volume and range as well as consumption? How was the tank stun accommodated with you? How does this work with the TÜV acceptance during self-construction?

Hi, I have renewed the engine with a 850 t5. New ZKD etc. Now it is so that after installation of the engine directly drains in idle mode, if I give a bit of gas it remains on. Furthermore: – Mkl no longer glows – In the tacho almost everything except Abs and Mkl with running engine are controlled: Idle control air mass meter petrol pump relays The grey relay on the ventilation or there are on 2 red cables each 12v has another hot tip here? The missing Mkl makes me very stubborn, Here’s a video:https://youtube.com/shorts/Lh9jeEox3Vk?feature=share
