  • 12V motor from JOHNSON for the headlight wiper system

    Hello Elchgemeinde! I need a 12 V direct current motor for the headlight wiper system for the V70 I. Original is a 12 V motor from JOHNSON in there. On the engine panel is a Bosch logo and the name: 12V 1 397 220 221 391162 printed. The shaft flattened in at the end to the axle half. I attached a picture as an installation. My previous search for this engine or an equivalent replacement was without success. Did anyone of you know where I can get such a 12 V engine? Greeting dobrowolsky

  • Passenger side disk constantly fogs

    Hello dear forum, today I have the following problem with my V70 BJ 98: The windshield half of the passenger side is constantly slamming (when driving when it is a bit colder outside) Only when the fan blows for a longer time it goes away. Or when the Kilma system is on, but not fast. Normal is the ventilation in my operation: the outside air supply is open, fan medium on, controller of the fan unit almost up completely, air conditioning off. Fan nozzles open. When I switch on the air conditioning system, it smells a bit muffy. When it is then switched off and the car is in the sun, the disc strikes again. Rugs are dry. Otherwise there is no water in the interior. Have a sliding roof, it also seems to be dry up there. How do I get to the drain hose of the air conditioning without cutting the car or demolishing it? (if it could be due to it) Thank you for your tips. Volvo…. you say he has magical powers.

  • Questions of understanding regarding tyre size 205/55 R16

    Hello! I have been driving an automatic Volvo V70 I for 5 months with 170 hp, first registration April 1998. According to vehicle identification no. it is a model “LW 5526”. Currently I have summer tyres of the size 205/50 R16 on it on Columba rims. Now I want to replace these with all-year tires. As discussed here in several forums there is hardly any choice for the size 205/50 R16 and then only completely overpriced. So I would like to get 205/55 R16 full-year tires. However, I am even after reading several Threats still not 100% sure if I may or not. There is obviously a manufacturer’s certificate from 2005 that allows the tyre size 205/55 R16 under conditions, but in the extract of the German Federal Motor Vehicle Agency (EG-BE e9’93/81*0002*00 to *13) from 2007 the tyre size 205/55 R16 does not appear under my model “LW 5526” or “L?55??”. 1. Which of the two statements is right or correct? So that the TÜV does not make any stress at all. the next HU and in case of an accident the insurance also pays. Moreover, at the very end under conditions 8) there is another restriction for model “L?55??”: … only from EG-BE e9’93/81*0002*10 2.Does that mean any wine? ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ f would have had to have the steering limiter already installed, wouldn’t it? 4. At Scandix I am informed that the steering limiter with part No. 271800 is not suitable for my model. After a little search I found out that there is another steering limiter with the number 9192701 (displacement disc, steering limit) which should fit my model. Is that correct? And will the manufacturer’s certificate then not be free of any problems for my model? 5. Should the steering limiter be suitable for my model? I get 205/55 R16 tyres and the corresponding steering limiter would have to be installed by the workshop. How expensive will that be? Isn’t the price advantage of the “cheaper” tyres eaten up? Again my Volvo probably won’t get new tyres again. I know that this topic has already been addressed several times, but so 100% satisfied with no answer so far. I’m rather totally confused. Especially now that I also have a partial review for r the tyres 205/55 R16 from 1999 from TÜV Hessen have found here. Thank you in advance, Oliver

  • Let passenger airbag shut down in 850?

    moin, I’m not sure if I had ever asked about it. I would like to have the driver’s airbag deactivated in order to be able to transport children’s seats there. according to the manual I can’t use child seats, no matter whether forward or backward. in the workshop they told me that I couldn’t, because the driver’s airbag would be connected to it and would be out of it. I would be interested in having one of you disabled the driver’s airbag completely offizell? so that somehow I had read it before, but it would have to be registered by the tv as well.

  • Purchase advice Volvo V70

    Hello, I need your help, if I have not made a mistake (because I can still undo it). I bought a Volvo V70 2.4, year 2000 yesterday! He has the following marginal data or extras: petrol green environmental badge EURO 3 140 HP Tüv: 02/2011 Air conditioning timing belts were changed in 2007 ABS STS partial leather interior trailer clutch light metal rims check booklet laid 2009 was a bigger repair, which cost 1200€! The track handlebar was dipped out, wheel bearing made, all light bulbs changed, oil change with filter change and still some seals exchanged. The car makes a very good optical impression and only on the bottom of the stern is a little rust to recognize! Only manco: He already has 256000 km down (dish belt changed at 218000)! I drove the car probe, it drives 1A and cuts softly, and gets clean with the old one!

  • Ruckle in the first and second corridors.

    Hello. My elk is jerking in the first and second gears, at the start. Only on LPG. In the gas fuel forum I was advised to change the ignition coil. Yesterday I renewed the spark plugs myself,(to 0,7) although the others were not old. And the distributor cap was cleaned. The problem remained. Now my question: Can it really be the ignition coil Because only to try it out is the somewhat expensive. At Skandix 70,48 €. Do you have an idea? Thank you. Mfg.Stig
