Hello! Well, I can’t tell you why it’s a good thing that I’m going to have to do the fuel kit for my Volvo C30 1.6D. Maybe I’m going to have to get into a driving fridge in the morning and evening and wait with a scarf and gloves for it to finally be warm in the car. I don’t like that too much because the lukewarm level 2 of the seat heater doesn’t help much. Well, I looked around and took a look at the heaters of Webasto and Eberspächer. In principle, both O.K. also the price difference is only small. Costs incl. remote control about 800,00 EUR. So, now comes`s: I’ve looked at the installation instructions for the Webasto heater at the C30 1.6 D. That’s where the heating is mounted on the engine partition, so just above the asphalt. I don’t like my lower-mounted Volvo at all. For the Eberspächer heater I also have an installation instructions. However, only for the gasoline. There’s the heating up on the engine wall (Spritz wall) can be mounted. When I can’t look at my C30?

Hy,have on my c 30 n paint damage by a “vogelschiss” on the engine hood,wasn’t at home and when I saw that,was it already too late,the stain burned in,have already tried to reach it with polish and scratch remover,but without results. Is a visit to the paint doctor worth it? Does anyone know what it costs? or is there any other possibilities?

Servus with each other, have already vigorously searched the forum and the rest of the network but found nothing clear about it: With our V50 2.4 5-ender benziner lights up the motor light in front of him funny, disappears from time to time again and reappears a few days later with this same error again and again: camshaft adjustment mechanical error I unfortunately forgot to write down the error code at the last read out, I will ask again on the next visit of my mechanic. Now the following question arises: Is it the adjuster himself? Does the tooth strap have a hood ? Is only the impulse generator defective ? Since in the corner unfortunately every amount of expensive parts sit it would be unbelievably easy to start the wild parts exchange with good luck The engine runs like always, no poking, no squeaking, no rattle, no like the same. Performance loss is also not a significant fixer. Does someone have the set values of the camshaft adjustment at hand to compare them perhaps with the actual values.

Hello, dear MOTOR-TALK TEAM and user… I wanted to or am wondering if I can make a radio exchange with my Volvo S40 II bj 08/2004… Bzw whether it is possible and how it is possible.. And then I wanted to ask if it is possible if there is no possibility to perform the RADIO EXCHANGE if I can connect an amplifier with WOOFER!! Thanks in advance and I am happy about every answer!!!!! Lg manzoni1212

Hello, today both in the back and in the front have dismantled the wheelhouse cladding, as I would like to use Mike Sander’s fat under it – as rust protection. And what must I say, I already have rust base on the grooves (covered by the plastic cladding). See pictures. (are the front advice boxes – in the back is still everything i.o. – so at least no rust base – but the color is still slowly fluted because the cladding scratchs on the paint) Will turn my car into a dealer on Monday. What to do here? Fuck man – the cart is only four years old. Pope

Dear community, our V50 2.0D has now run 67,000km. I noticed from the water filling that the engine compartment cover is centrally in the front area and the cover of the fan wheel is oil-lubricated in the middle. At a short look under the cover I noticed that the intake hose is also oily there and the oil is in the small diagonally installed “bust” in front of it. Meanwhile it is also dripping on the underlying hose. The one here in Mannheim (where I am now working) has confirmed by telephone that this is the throttle valve that has to be replaced. Next week I drive to the installation. Can you tell me briefly whether this is a known problem at the 2.0D and (far more important) what the fun will cost? I hope and assume that the completed connection guarantee will take over the (partly) . To the throttle flap I only found something to the gasoline engines in the SuFu … Grus vom Fred

Hello, since I want to have a nicer sound with a little more bass in my S40, but this one only has the normal performance radio, I would like to exchange my 4 loudspeakers in the doors. Now you ask me the question which one I should build, and since I have no idea about it I have found out here that it is 16cm loudspeaker and I need such distance rings (for the installation depth…). Which one do I buy? 2-3 way loudspeakers? which brand? Price up to 200Euro (4 speakers + 4 holders) I thank Fabian already

Hello Elchgemeinde, I’m kind of insecure about the combination manual – Motor-Talk. Lt. manual are to tighten rims to my V50 2.0D with 130 Nm, without distinction whether aluminium or steel. Here in the forum I find almost every value between 85 and 120 Nm for aluminium rims (my are original Volvo). On my previous vehicles I had always only steel rims and pulled the through the bench away with 120 Nm and neither lost nor damaged. Since I’m unsure, my little elk now stands with 60 Nm of necessarily tightened rims in the garage and hopes for an exhaustive answer. Thanks already Jens

Hi, has anyone tried the reinforced torque support from you? It is replaced at the back of the engine for the standard model. The part is used in Focus ST warehouse and is always praised there. Fits for switches and automatic gasoline. Many greetings Thomas

Hello together, at the moment I look for a used one and would like to benefit from your experience. In short choice is V50. A few questions: – which engine recommended, undermotorized is not my thing – there are with DPF problems – how long-lasting is the chassis, it is the same as with Mondeo – what should you necessarily note at V50 purchase Today I drove a 2.0 D, was really fun. I have ordered very heavy switching and moderate radio sound, where it was already better radio built in. Thanks for your tips!
