  • Looking for tweeter for amaturation board

    Hello together. I have installed all the speakers from the premium sound system in my 850. However, I only have a 4-channel power amplifier, so that I operate the speakers in the front doors parallel to those in the dashboard. I have to take care that the LS in the A board does not get too much steam. Now I intended to replace them against pure tweeters via a crossover. Unfortunately, the AIVs are no longer available. However, there are still the matching mounts (http://www.extremeaudio.de/…volvo-850-speaker-holder.html), in which I would like to insert new tweeters. Which can you recommend to me? And which crossover should I take? Many greetings Eric

  • Speed increase when switching at medium speeds

    Hello together, you think now everything is new and the moose is running, but hardly a construction site is done, a new one on vehicle data first does:-) 850 he 95er 144 HP 2.5l LPG Vialle system HJS cold running controller after unround idle I have renewed a few things, so far so good, now I have an unusually high speed increase ( 300 – 500 rpm) when switching … this is not only annoying, but also bothers when driving, because the speed drops very slowly … occurs on petrol and gas … gets a little better when the engine turns over 3000 tours … error memory is empty … circuit is sometimes buttery and sometimes tacky … oil in the gearbox has also been exchanged … unfortunately have not found a suitable answer in the forum! Someone an idea what it could be renewed: idle actuator oil trap throttle actuator ignition cable (original) distribution cap (contacts cleaned) ignition coil crankwave sensor camshaft sensor knock sensors under pressure sensor (wall) UD – hoses as far as recognizable i.

  • Volvo 850 automatic gearbox in D at idle

    Today my beloved Volvo gave up. He had started to switch the last days late from the first to the 2nd course. Especially when he was cold. Then everything was ok again. Then he jumped into the emergency run with a flashing famous arrow. I already thought about changing the gear oil. It still looks a bit bright but you can also find small black particles in it. Today the Volvo suddenly had no drive during the ride at approx. 80 km/h. Rolling out let the same problem start again after a while. He did not go from the spot anymore only the speedometer went up like idle. Then it did not go back again. The drive passed quite slowly when driving slowly until it pulled nothing at all. Now I left the Volvo there first. What do you mean it is a gear oil change still value or is it too late.

  • V70 2.5 144PS Bj1997- Change coupling – or only rear bearings?

    Evening together, I am normally more on the road in the Opel or VW Forum, but since this morning call a beautiful V70 2.5 with 144hp Bj 1997 my property Hab with Volvo never had anything to do, but screw everything itself for years and for the reason of the eternal “shit will be in workshops” also got me a own stage. My Volvo claps at the clutch step, I close to 99% on the back storage. Is that with my V70 a big act to change that, there is possibly even a good instruction here? Is there anything to consider with Volvo and how it looks…the clutch also here better to complete right now? The car now has 280000 km on the clock and up to the clapping the clutch still does not seem to be at the border. I am surprised by the whole process (except the seats) Freue me over every tip.

  • Bad start behavior Volvo 850

    Hello together, in advance it’s about the following vehicle: Volvo 855 144 PS 10V automatic MJ 1996 (OBD) 290,000km Prins LPG system Now to the problem: The vehicle starts badly, preferably when it was turned off 1-2 hours. That means you have to org a little more and sometimes you experience really Radau from the engine room, as if the engine were hitting back. So I would at least formulate that. Usually this works for the next attempt. If the engine control light was not on, it is at the latest. When it is on, it runs wonderfully. Since I am a quiet reader here for a long time and could solve so already some things (e.g.: ABS control unit sold out, thank you for it!), I had the error read out (a friend has a reading device, but does not live in the vicinity): A camshaft position encoder switching circuit (Bank 1) Everything then read clear, here in the forum you can read maybe also that he likes to make problems, so it was ordered by Skandix and then everything was ok for a week. Then again the again the broken message was well with me.

  • Strange noise when accelerating

    Hello, Now shortly before Tüv my C70 starts to quaggle again. Recently I stop with the speed up a hard definable noise which has its origin somewhere in the front half of the car. It sounds as if the tires would spin off, however it is clearly mechanical origin. It occurs from 1500 rpm to the end. Mainly in the gears 1-3. The other two will probably follow with advanced illness. At constant speed there is nothing to hear, stop at speed. If you do this more strongly, the noise is also stronger. My guess is that the clutch slowly but surely blesses the temporal, but actually it feels too good for it. Another guess would be that the noise is developing in the engine room and it might be a belt or something. But actually it sounds different… Maybe someone has an idea, I would like to thank you for it.

  • Lock 5 in small box..

    … always flies. Result, AC without function and both labda probes error message . Where in the wire harness would you look? When I stand in front of the box I have a short against mass on the left side of the fuse. (See photo 3) Right side backup is the switched plus … so much I could measure already. Stand behind Napoli in Italy at 27 degrees.

  • Cruise retrofitted, but problem

    Hello to the round, I wanted to upgrade the cruiser today with my 850 switch. Up to the last cable I got through great, because in the net there is an almost perfect, strongly illustrated instruction (don’t know the link). Just almost perfect, because a tiny wire harness is not described there further (Fig. 1). While I was immediately clear from the plug shape, which are the two pedal switch plugs, it is vaguely clear to me that the yellow plug should probably replace the yellow one present at the brake pedal switch. But it is completely unclear to me – even after many hours and exhausting study of the WHB (Fig. 2) – where the large white plug belongs… Can someone help me there? Maybe with a picture? Thank you in advance… Best greetings from the southern north Hessen from the beach of the Fulda, Axel

  • B5244T replacement engine

    So, here I am, fresh and new in the world of this forum and in the Volvo Turbos…. Recently I am the owner of a Volvo V70 2.5T AWD (142kw) And since the problems start car is great, runs super, doesn’t want to miss it anymore. Sorry, ran super. Because: the crankshaft housing is leaking. Disassemble and seal? What if you find out that the parts of the crankcase are pulled away? Because the car is fully equipped and otherwise in super condition, I want to invest money and build it up. But I think rather to get another engine needed, to have it overhauled at the capable engine builder, and then swap. But, I don’t find a single B5244T3 only (147kW). Or B5254T (will otherwise be indicated with the same performance?!) Can I take one of these substitutes? Who knows capable engine builders who might take less than 3000,-€ for such an action. Sure, the performance may eventually be higher (thinking 250 hp) I will not hope…

  • V70 Problems when switching spark plugs

    The second thing I had to say was that I had to change the spark plugs with my V70 Bj 99 and 400,000 km, because the engine was running unround and not quiet. After I had the cover down, everything swam in a small oil pool (except for the outer cylinders). I took the oil with a cloth and then saw that these small cable hoses (black and so ripped) were completely porous and at 90% of the places were blown away. This rest I blew out with compressed air before I put off the connection to the spark plugs. Unfortunately, the workshop did not do that at the last change. In all spark plug shafts there was too much brute stuff. I blew it out with compressed air so well, but also under the sealings of the candles it was already, of course nicely stuck. I did not trust now with the open access to the combustion room to get too strong and first the new candles so screwed up. First question: Did someone have a good idea how to clean up that there? Can the bad run of the oil just come off of course.
