Yes, as the topic already says, it is about tuning. A question about whether anyone has already tried the following provider or what one could think of it. Up to now I had written to this company 2 times and asked for the guarantee, how it is meant by those, what exactly it includes and what of course not. But no answer came back. The price is almost unbeatable and the installation according to a video is even more correct. The traceability of the tuning should go against “0”, at least one advertises. Furthermore, it is only activated if it is really needed. How this is done now is a puzzle to me, because as soon as I give “gas” I also need performance. www.racechip.de/racechip-chiptuning/Volvo-S40-1-6-D-2313-r.html this would be the link. I drive a Volvo S40 MY05 1.6D.

Hello, you need your help. I want to buy a removable trailer coupling on my V50. Now there is a choice between Bosal and Westfalia. Can someone give a tip which coupling is better or worse? No cut-out in the bumper is necessary with the Bosal, at Westfalia it is necessary. At Bosal I have to have the car programmed at Volvo, at Westfalia not. I already know that much.

On the 18th of April, at 8 a.m. I stayed with my Volvo C70 (new price 54.000,–) with engine damage. It is the D5 engine with a mileage of 30,000 km. After consultation with Volvo it turned out that the warranty has expired exactly eight hours !!! Volvo is now reluctant to pay even one Ct.. On Kulanz it is not possible, because a proper inspection was made, but not in a Volvo workshop. For the warranty case this would have been ok, but for the “Kulanz” not. In my opinion not exactly an example of a car salesman in the upper market segment?

So today it was time – on the A3 (Frankfurt – Cologne) climb Elzer Berg we filled up the 100,000km in the C30 1.6D. Only shortly the experiences again: Except for a refill of the coolant last summer no extraordinary preliminary achievements. 2 weeks after EZ there was a martenbiss, currently the air conditioning is repaired because a stone stroke has damaged the capacitor. Otherwise the little one runs like a clockwork, average consumption is 5,6l/100km. Until now there is also no snaring, no flapping – nothing. Even if I can not hear the word “premium” in cars soon, but on our C30 it is true. For our current needs actually the perfect car. Yesterday we drove a Golf VI 1.6 TDI Comfortline sample. In comparison, the insulation is more elaborate, but does not use so much at highway speed anymore, because the engine itself is louder and above all wind noise increases strongly. And the interior mood with every amount of hard plastic could not stop with the noble aluminium console of our C30 – I really don’t know what their car tip is smoking here.

Hello, I might like to buy an S 40 from 2004. I have a few questions about this, of course. Is it possible to convert the moror from the 2.4 and 2.4 i respectively to autogas? My friendly dealer denied this. Do you already have people here who have gained experience with it? And what costs do I have to expect? I have even more questions, but that’s the first thing that bothers me most. Thanks for your answers. Mfg Markus

Hello everyone, I’m just about to buy a Volvo C70 T5 Aut. Summum here the data: EZ10/2006 94,000km gasoline 220PS With full equipment so really practically everything Volvo has to offer. Cost point 16.500€. Can someone tell me perhaps what I should pay attention to when buying and whether the car is worth it at all? How are your opinions on this car how are the maintenance costs? Do you have to repair a lot or are the cars reliable? Have only Audi and VW driven the second one so far was always TOP and the first one more FLOP Thanks for your help.

Hello together, drive a C30 1.6D BJ. 2008 and have to give it in 4000km for inspection. Well, warranty has unfortunately expired and I have a few points that I would like to address at the workshop. These points would be: – Let gear oil change (the oil that DriveE gear is used should be better) do you do that by itself, if I say gear is a little rough? – left seat knärzt beim ein und Aussteig – Right speaker probably has a crack (can they get that out on site themselves, or do I have to identify the speaker myself?) Now to my main question: Sometimes, in idle run, the speed varies between 900 and ~650. Especially if I can drive on a traffic light and let the car roll empty and come to a stop. Since it is a self-ignitioner, can be here no faults ignition shorts. I would like to fix this problem, but do not know if you can find the error (whether leasing company pays the reperatur at all). What else is replaced? Brake linings, DPF has been read as a car.

Hello, there are already the price lists of the C30 for Mj 2011. In it you will also find day running lights. Does someone know where this is then sitting. Seelze 01

Hello, I’m now driving my second V50 (2.0D – EZ 12/2009). Now, after changing from winter to summer bikes, I noticed that the right rear wheel gives a clear singing of itself. I already had the same problem with the predecessor – also at the back right. As I assume that this is about saw tooth formation, I am surprised that problem occurs back right again. Now my question: Is this a general problem of the 50s? Is there a way to avoid this! In advance, thank you for your answers.

Hello! My C30 D5 year 2007 can obviously conjure up! A few months ago I noticed by chance that the make-up mirror (is used as good as never) had cracked in the folding sun visor on the passenger side and that it was radiating from the edge into many parts. Grober handling it etc. was not memorable to me – but you never know… . In the friendly one one one was surprised (never heard before…) and changed to Kulanz by 50,- the aperture completely. Three weeks ago I then needed the mirror on the driver side – which had just jumped apart now. I was irritated, because breaking by heat voltage separates as well as – garage vehicle, always use the air conditioner, never stands any longer in the plummet sun (North Germany!). Have bought the little elk last summer with 1.5 years from the dealer, then both mirrors were quite safe still intact. Has someone had an idea of what it might be or has already experienced something like that?
