  • Problem crankshaft sensor

    It’s all about the crankshaft sensor. After light start problems and sporadic dropouts the Volvo is read out and read out with the following errors: Crankshaft sensor signal faulty Crankshaft sensor no signal I didn’t battered for a long time and ordered a new sensor and installed, since I didn’t want to check the old one either, because the clutch had already been gneezgnadled by the workshop of my predecessor. I also changed the socket. after error memory delete and re-read: Crankshaft sensor no signal Both measured, the new and the old: old 298Ohm, new 286Ohm – should actually go. Now I came up with the idea to look at the supply line to the sensor and determined the following phenomenon: Resistance measurement on the cable: 15,2KOhm -“- with the ignition on it’s 11,5KOhm is normal?

  • Just change spark plugs… now he’s not running anymore…need help

    Moin an alle It’s about a C70 Bj 2003 200PS automatic I just wanted to change the spark plugs. I also did. Now it feels like a cylinder is missing. Engine control light went on and then it even started to flash. Speed fluctuates something. All ignition cables and plugs controlled. No improvement. Then the old spark plugs reinstalled. Mistakes felt worse. Now it has also gone unround in idle run. Did I break something? Just changed the spark plugs. I am grateful for every hint. Greetings Thomas

  • Change windshield 850 TDI

    In my list, “what do I do first” is completely surprising the windshield…….slip to position 1. I wanted to test the spring force from the wiper arm.Unconscious.That took me said disk very badly…… To make it short, partial cascade no, I prefer to be professional and so, at least I can stick Auarian. So what I would like to know, there are some tricks or tricks. Is there something I have to pay special attention to? Or is it the “normal” sequence as with any x-popular disk. I am grateful for hints πŸ™‚

  • Cooler fans

    Hello together, I have a V70 with 144 hp and the problem when I switch on the air conditioning of the fan motor after a short time, but does not switch off anymore, it always runs, only when I switch off the engine and start again is the first time off. Is this normal that the fan always runs, would not have to go out in between or if I switch off the air conditioning. If the climate is not on, the fan only starts when I stand a little longer in idle mode, then it goes out again when I drive. Could the relay at the front of the cooler have a defect? Greeting F90

  • Summaries from the steering gear

    Hello, with my wonderful Cabriolet C70 T5 (2001) I have to go to the workshop next week like every 10,000 km. I couldn’t drive from today by car anymore and that’s as soon as I take a strong turn, the well-known crackling noises come (will be lubricated in the workshop), but above all, and that’s why I leave this message, get a buzz or hum, which becomes stronger and less strong, but doesn’t go away. I’ve already been looked up on the road, I think that the noise is clearly audible from the outside. Who knows this problem ?

  • Winter tyres

    Hello Elche, last week in the basement had looked for the MS tyres, and seen with horror that the front wheels had gone up to 1.6 mm It is still in the set frame, but for snow not the ideal case. From experience especially last year I know the MS tyres are sold out so about 15 tyre dealers called until the price was ok ( normal price € 140 ) Finally I paid € 99 per tire. I drive only brand tyres no Lilang or other garbage, my safety and those of the others on the gas are more important than ” false saving ” My tires;Michelin MS Alpine A4 205 / 55 16 inches Whether narrow tires or wide plays no role today with winter tires and is in the rest false regular table thinking, which are only narrow tires in the snow ok Which MS tires drive you and what did you pay for it and ride your aluminium or steel rims in the winter ?

  • new 850/v70 has to come!

    Yesterday I was on the road in the 850s and I have to say – the thing has to go! The engine eats oil, I knew that, but he doesn’t get out of the pushes anymore… that’s annoying. And since I don’t want to have big engine repairs (go out of defective piston rings) now a new one has to come. Too bad, had fresh TΓΌV on it in May. Is probably only for battles πŸ™ But now for the “new” – should be a gasoline engine, but this time with upscale equipment (climate, seat heating etc.) the old one is the “basic model” with butcher equipment. Can also be a V70 phase I. Which gasoline engines are durable? Are these the same engines as in the 850? MIR therefore, no “normal” petroler is enough with 200 hp + . The running performance is not so important – car is not moving much i.e. 10Tkm a year max. – ie. there is not so much more to add. What price range do I have to reckon with?
