Moin together, research has turned out to be partly irresistible, therefore the question. I changed the cooler at my V70I Bj.2000. Before I bought a blue coolant, but then I was unsure if it is the right one and have now filled the system only with water. So now I drive with pure water. The color of the old coolant is left behind…. I am unsure. Can I now release the complete water tomorrow and the 50/50 mixture of water and blue da r Turn it in? LG

Hello guys Short introduction Name Vlado 36 years old Now I have bought a Volvo quite spontaneously now,in Volvo segment I am absolutely new I have already driven anything but Volvo never before.

Hello, does anyone have another CD or know exactly which I need or can still take?

Moinsen! I send ahead: I am the total electric legasthenic! My battery seems to be over, though, it is not. Previous owner is not even 2 years old (factory: sunshine). Have started the car several times with starting aid cable. Then it comes immediately – quite normal halt. Today I had measured the battery before: 0.14 volts! deep discharge? Or what do you call it? Did the car then run about 20 months. At the battery I could measure 12,8V about. Then car a us – and immediately made a start attempt… NO MUCKS! So when the battery is gone – by deep discharge, because there e.g. a consumer pulls electricity… Then I would like to get to the bottom of the matter Question: How do you measure such a thing? Multimeter available! Something with ampere? Greeting, Andi

Moinmoin. Another blow of my racing elk makes me look for further advice here. When changing the front brakes (discs and coverings) we found that the drive shaft makes light noises. Even with heavy steering (when parking) there is always a light “kablonk”. The screwdriver of my trust means: drive shaft. Now the question arises: should I install new or used? The moose is now 16 years young and has 245 tkm, stands well until s Very well there, is fun and everything (a T5 with 239 moose strengths, combi, EZ 6/99 = mood ;-)). The mechanic is a heart-good guy who doesn’t shy away from used parts. What I think is good. And I really have to convince him to install new parts if there is no other way. Where can I find good, maybe even tested and used parts? How about “no-name” parts? Look forward to your feedback. Best regards, Søren

A nice morning! Recently I am proud owner of a C70 1 2.0T, only unfortunately he has a little problem.. Up in the crankshaft lid collects oil, I went to the bottom of the thing and found that 2 threads are through, now I wanted to cut them again. Now you are asked, does anyone know if the timing belt has to be opened when I open the lid? And should this be the case, can the “old” strap be used again? Would it be annoying if not, because this was made new by the previous owner about 400KM. Although I have already found a similar trend (http://www.motortalk.de/…/valve cover seal4966156.html?…) only this one is already a little older, and it is the bigger engine.. Hope someone can help me 🙂

Hi, with my V2 I had to find out in the rain that the windscreen wiper obviously does not stop interwall switching. Also, the wiper does not go back automatically to its initial position. The wipe-wash operation only makes a wash at the front but does not wipe. At the back it works. At the V1 everything was fine in this regard. There was also a controller in the instrument cluster. Does this mean that there is something in the wrong place? Or is this a minimal standard version of Volvo for the Dutch Protestant-ascetic market – my V2 is a Dutchman? Or could I upgrade the windshield wiper circuit with some craft (from my V1 to V2) according to the Roman Catholic motto: Who has to be given [also good view]? Jürgen

moin, need some help, where I should start troubleshooting… The Volvo (see signature) has stood for about 10 days. Wet, damp weather, strong ground fog. When starting it ran a little rough, ABS and Tracs lights did not go out! After a kilometer stopped (put in a letter), then started again, ABS errors still there… After about 2km the engine went off! On restart he jumped briefly, but died immediately. After several further attempts and some waiting time e ADAC was there, tapped for errors in the ABS control unit. So plugs were pulled off, engine was running, no speed fluctuations, no speed fluctuations… Sound good, disconnected plug isolated, goes also provisional without ABS to home, so ADAC away… After about half an hour I also wanted to go… and came out 100m far! Engine! He died immediately after an immediate start attempt, after a little break he ran only slightly longer. So ADAC Called back… Started in the waiting time for a try…, he jumped immediately and ran impeccable in idle! Just let him run and wait a while, without touching the accelerator! He ran unreservedly warm, until the fan switched on… zack… engine off! So I have the impression, as soon as a (stronger?) consumer is switched on or gas is given, the error appears. ADAC then dragged me the short way home.. I cleared out the station wagon once in the back and the Re Then you can also hear the petrol pump running at “Züdung an” . Petrol pump relay 103 I actually had brand new in reserve , the exchange however also did not change anything … So where should I start with the troubleshooting?

My moose suddenly became very hot, the water temperature quickly rose into the red area. The reason: The plastic shovel wheel of the water pump is broken into several parts. When I pulled the pump out, a few plastic particles came to me – unfortunately not very many. With the idea to flush the cooling circuit a little through, I tipped a pot of water into the balance tank and saw what comes out below. With my shovel wheel puzzle but unfortunately always noc h a few parts. My plan is actually to just install a new pump… If the engine temperature is OK then nothing should be blocked too much. On the other hand, the thought that there are still some plastic particles of unknown size is bothering me. Does one of you have a tip for me? Or am I thinking too much?

Hello together, at my C70 Convertible BJ 2003 the days of the rope hoist for the window lifter passenger side have said goodbye, of course just before a thunderstorm broke off. A new window lifter costs with the friendly 650€ without installation! A rope hoist repair set at eb** only 50€. Has someone had experience with it or is there perhaps even something like a guide / assistance for something like this? Unfortunately, despite intensive google could not find anything concrete, or I have the wrong g Greetings Bundescaster
