Servus.. Have a question and that I have a Volvo V70 2.4 T 193 Ps How can I make it a little faster.. So from the acceleration.. Does someone have an idea or maybe already made it themselves? Would be nice if someone could help me.

Hello, I have a 850 Combi Automatic (850/5 GLE A, Built 93, Gasoline, 2435 ccm, 103 kw) in this bookstore. For some time now he has been feeling kind of restless, it’s hard to describe, I feel when I touch the steering wheel a slight vibrating that I didn’t feel before. Sometimes he also has start problems that only occur when I stop after a short ride and then try to start again after a few minutes. The starter works, but it’s crazy loud and you think the engine is already broken. I have recorded this noise once with the phone and will append it once as mp3. This problem he had half a year ago and then I have the complete ignition system (kerts, cables, this lid where the cables go away, the “shoe” that is inside) changed. Since he had this problem “only” twice. If I have this problem, it is enough to wait a few minutes and then he starts quite normal. But what is not bothering me or having trouble finding the wrong stuff.

Good evening together, during the installation of the console for the auxiliary headlights on the V70 XC, two plugs ( 1 ) together with cable, which are blindly inserted 1x in the direction of travel at the bottom of the plastic cover of the cooler, or left in the direction of travel on the ventilation grill next to the fog lamp ( 2 ) , s. Photo plug. Can someone tell me what it is for, for which obviously are provided ex factory ? I guess yes still that I can plug in the long-distance headlights so that they can be operated with the main beam – is someone known ? Thanks in advance. mfg vauviernull

Moin all on the other hand… So it’s not about my Volvo(I’m not stupid) but about the radio what I built in… Is a doubleDinTouchbla blubb… with navigation function…which was broken at last etc… so, since I’ve got n iphone and got me a nice cool navigator program, which provides constantly updated map material and estimates for offline the whole world 9.99, I don’t need nav anymore… Now the part, which is a little dirty seller, gets under certain circumstances( which he himself determines ) another lawsuit to the neck and I hopefully some time my coal again for the part… So that’s not enough. Since the thing is broken again, my decision has now fallen: There comes in again an original radio… Since I had sold my old one to Uwe, which still does the service in Norway in his soda, I need one now. Therefore my question, who has a SC-805 lying here? Functionally, but I understand this by myself, hjalmar

Hello Motor-Talker, finally found a nice (new) moose. It’s a 2.5T first registration 98 with 206,000km first hand 🙂 Unfortunately with integrated light organ in the dashboard 🙁 MKL and ABS/Tracs light up and flash every now and then. However, I’ll get to the bottom of the thing, I guess anyway that I can blame the marten who was there. But all in all I’m really happy to have found a Sweden so well-preserved, so you can really see away from such small things. I also have some fresh pictures 😉

The other day I wanted to install my dog grid (the one with the dampers), which I had acquired from an MT member in my 850 station wagon. Both plastic covers in the sky above the rear seats were quickly removed, also the two screws – one of them relatively heavy. But when I turned the second screw in it happened: the welding nut loosened and the screw is stuck in the thread (the welding nut spins with it). I know through my service documents that Volvo has not really pointed at some welding nuts (especially the railing nuts), but it’s off. Today I have bent away the sky at the relevant place from my battle-850 and saw that I don’t get between the sheet doubling (column about 1cm). What now?

Hello you !!! I’m looking for WEISSE LEDs for the window lifters and the light switch in the V70. The question is only which are the right ones. LEDs with resistance which are suitable for 12V, I found (or rather scuty) only in red, green and yellow.-White LEDs I could find in 3mm (also in 5mm, but there they are too big,or?) . I assume it should be max 3mm. But with what resistance? Is this a calculation example if the LED 20mA needs current strength and 3.2V voltage? Can someone help me ?

Greetings! Where do you buy your shock absorbers? I need a complete set. Shake still between Sachs and KYB. The price differences are rehct large, where do you order? Can anyone recommend something?

Hello Volvo colleagues, have changed the ATF with my TDI and according to the instructions you should reset the “gear counter”. Has anyone done this by yourself? I mean with what program? Thank you, edu850
