Hello first of all, I am new here and have also directly the first problem, where I don’t know any more! My girlfriend bought a C30 about half a year ago. Unfortunately, after a short time the following happened: The engine control lamp went on and the engine went into the emergency run. We had been with the car in the workshop, they did everything imaginable and did, very many parts exchanged, renewed and filled up. to see at the bottom of the picture. But the car was still running. no. We are really at a loss and don’t know any more, maybe you can help us?! Sincerely P. Beker

Good day you Swedes…, short something about me, drive a S80 D5 in November 2014 and have now also my parents with Volvo Infected. Now I need your help, my Ma need no V70 or XC60/V60 and so on. That’s why you like the C30 from Volvo. Now someone can tell me something about the car? Prefers the petroler ,2009/10 year of construction and so around the 100-125hp. What experiences have you made with a C30 and would you want to pick it up again or buy one again? Is it possible? h to achieve high mileage with the engines? LG

Hello together, as new generation is coming, the vehicle fleet will be changed. I probably separate from my V70II T5, instead comes a 2010 Sharan with sliding doors for my better half. I “should” take over their Corsa D. In itself a fine car, but already a bit “female”. A 480 is also available, but I drive it only in good weather as a fun car. Therefore, my idea would be to sell the Corsa and rather create a C30 for everyday life. If the C30 doesn’t consume much, you can easily get to the engine everywhere and still have enough power for everyday life. Perfect would still be the possibility to hang a small caravan. It must be a petrol truck with a manual circuit. Now to the questions: 1. Is the C30 solid and economical? 2. Which engine and what equipment and year of construction would you recommend? 3. Is the C30 easy to use? 4. Do all C30 Xenon headlights have? 5. Do all C30 I so-Fix? 6. What should be paid special attention to when buying (weaknesses)? Thank you and greeting, the Swede

Servus, I’m going to have time to get my Volvo S40 2.0D (136ps) new rims for the summer tyres. From the research here in the forum I have now decided on 17 inch rims, the question is now only which tire width. The website recommends 225/45 as tire size. However, from various forums I have that 215/45 or much better for the S40. Unfortunately I am a total beginner in this regard and wanted to ask experts here about the smarter choice here. And why are the 225/45 unfurnished 300e cheaper than the 215/45? I would like to lose little driving comfort and little acceleration. It’s about the following rims:https://www.felgenoutlet.lu/…/platin-p99-jetblack?…

Hello all, my V50, 2,0D, Bj2004, has a serious problem. The steering does not work properly. Especially the faster you drive the more often blocks this or you have a very great resistance when steering from just on impact?! Especially on the highway it often comes to very dangerous situations. One just drives out, wants to steer, the steering blocked, when the power on the steering wheel increases the steering at once and steers again. However, the problem occurs only when you want to steer then. The problem strengthens in case of cold or after driving. After longer driving becomes better. My mechanic says the power supply to the engine is fine. Could only the engine/servo pump be? Or the steering gear? Maybe someone has a hint? In advance thank you for your answers I am grateful about every suggestion! Thank you

Hello, we have a C30 2.0D virtually left in the family. The vehicle is as far as I know, I haven’t seen the show yet, from 2008. Here is the data: C30 2.0D with 100kw/136hp 2nd hand 120.000km (pure long distance) sliding roof Xenon-piglighter hand switch of my knowledge partial leather hands-free device seat heating climate automatic The vehicle was offered to me as a replacement for our golf, which as a petroler is not necessarily the most practical car for 150km per day. What would be a realistic value when selling to a dealer, because this would be about the price I would have to pay. Thank you!

Hello We need a new car and this time it should be a Swede V50. We have a few to choose from just can’t quite decide or are a bit unsafe and would like to ask the experts what they mean. 1.) Volvo V50 2.4 /LPG/Checkheftgepfleggegepflegt/Tempomat/PDC/ (from dealer 450€) EZ 06/2005 319.503 km Petrol (LPG) 103 kW (140 hp) HU/AU 02/2016 Isn’t that too many km? 2. Volvo V50 V 50 Kombi 1.6 D Momentum 2.HAND (from dealer 6950 €) 04/2008 EZ 166,000 km Diesel (dust filter) 80 kW (109 hp) HU/AU new 3. VOLVO V50 2.0D DPF Momentum-LEDER-XENON-AHK.

Hello dear forum, First of all warm greetings from Bielefeld! I am interested in a V50 D 1.6 DPF, 11/2007, Kombi, and I could already look at the xten. I would have liked to. 133tsd run, DPF, LM, battery, additive, inspection was made in November 2014. I noticed, however, that under the battery on the thing is an oil-dreak-sminder film. Have I seen now with some. And now I ask myself of course: What this comes from? AND: Does this have to be done? Maybe you have an idea and can help me further? Thank you! Judith

Hello everybody, I have changed the engine oil and the oil filter at my Volvo V50 2.0D (140tkm, 2004) today. As stated in the instructions for use, I filled in about 5.5 liters. If the car is driving everything is good. But always when I stop, then the warning lamp goes on. As soon as I give a gas shot it goes out and then goes right back on when the car goes into the stand gas. Does the car now have too much or too little oil? Thanks and Gruss Enrico

Moin, I wanted to give you a short report: I equipped my rear axle with PU sockets from Strongflex with the T5. The old ones were soft and partly cracked after 11 years. If you have a press like me, it goes out and press in quite easily. But certainly also goes in a good vice with a long tube as extension. I changed the storage of the stabilizer through the SKANDIX house stamp and new coupling bars from Lemförder have come in. Where before the box was called clapping and swinging was now very tight at the back. You notice already that the PU is harder. But the box is very well on the road and does not swing anymore when driving over from e.g. Huckeln from left to right but only briefly up and down. Now I will make the front handlebars new, because last year they came new from Febi. But the rubber is very soft and the coupling rods from them have already been over after 15 TKM.
