Hello together, on my V50-MY08, the armrest is creaking (when the arm is hung up). In particular, this is the upper part (cover). Does any of you have the same problem? ‘If so, what will help? in advance Thank you for your answers

Hello I’ve already read a lot in your forum, but I seem to be too stupid: I would like to transport a 2m PAX cabinet from the Ikea with my C30 (2012 summum). I would like to do this as I often see the passenger seat in the forum, but I can’t do that. Can’t I do that with this model? Or do I just don’t find the function? Setting back in “sleep position” is possible, but then the headrest would be in the way… Thanks already for input!

Hello, I’m new to the forum and have a C70 II T5: Black, Premium Sound, BSR PPC to 260 HP, Wheel Extension (Heico), ATS rims 8 1/2 x 19 on 245/30 R19 Pirelli. Alu extras: steering wheel, gear lever, pedals. Other: Bluetooth, heater, wind lock, brake calipers painted red. Does anyone have any experience with a sports suspension? Are offered Heico (adventure), MR (manufacturer unknown) and H+R. In the case of the serine suspension, it bothers me that the elk is lifted from the springs when speeding up and the immersion in tight curves.

Hello, I have a black V50 and wanted to start the full washing program with Kneten and a stronger polish ( Ultimate Compound ) on the weekend time, because I wanted to remove the whole wash lane swirls from the predecessor. I tried it already with paint cleaner and Meguiars Scratch X. Since both did not work something stronger must. Since a Uni Lack has no clear varnish over it, I wanted to make sure that there is not too much paint down there. With hand polish anyway not so much down, but is sure … I found on this page:http://www.mobilverzeichnis.de/volvo_farbcodes.htm the following information: FIRST. NAME CODE BUILD YEAR LACK VOLVO BLACK PEARL 429 1995 METALLIC VOLVO BL. SAPHIRE PEARL 452 2000 METALLIC VOLVO BLACK 346 2001 can be found here.

Hello, the V50 petrol is the interval for the timing belt I believe at 120,000 km. Is that correct and there is also a period in years ? So every 120,000 km and / or 8 years ? Does the driving method have an influence on the wear of the timing belt ? Many highway ride with low speed ( 3000-4000 Umdr ) reduces the risk of damage …? I am not a technician at all and have no idea of such things, but could think that constant city ride at high revolutions more strain the timing belt and one should change it earlier. Info: My V50 1.6l petrol engine is built 07/2005 and has now 46,000 KM on the clock. Annual mileage approx. 25,000-30,000 / year. in 2.5 years I would have reached the 120,000 km and the car is then 8 years old. Drive as good as only AUtobahn and rarely faster than 120km/H Thank you & Gruss E.

Hello I as not Volvo driver have a question specifically concerning the C 70 convertible. I have just read the report about the 50 000th delivered C 70. Very nice car. Could I also like. Is this normal that this small antenna is on the trunk flap on the one hand ( Navi ? ) and in addition on the passenger side again an antenna ( Radio ? ) as seen on the picture. Thank you Siti Sacmi

Hello everyone! I would like to add the oddities already described here with regard to the ads of the BC: My elk (2.0 D/RPF), now 2,100 km, needed at the beginning lt. BC 6,6 liters, because I was quite satisfied. When I then looked at the Km-rest display more closely, the same thing was with me, as with many of you: If display “- -“, then go still 10 liters. At the end of this display still 30 KM continued – I would have dared without the information from the forum NIE – 9,5 went still pure. Meanwhile average verb. 6,8 – more city traffic – and when I calculated after today’s refueling, however, he needed 7.5 !!! times apart from that I think this is clearly too much, but also the BC seems to spin. What do you need at all, if it is 0.8 L. vertutut? My friend meant first, he measures the last 100 km, but this is not true, it is not true since the last reset. What does your software make your new update help?

Hello everyone! I’ve been driving a C30 for 5 months. I just read on the internet that the 2009 model features higher quality materials in the interior. Is that true? If so, which ones? Here’s the link:http://de.cars.yahoo.com/…/…powershift-fine-ground-model year.html Greetings

A question to the C 70 fraction about the quality of the workmanship. So the joy on the C 70 was already very great, but the little things since delivery are already very annoying. Was now 5 times in the workshop because of flap noise in the roof inexplicable wind noise of the driver’s outside mirror. Not correctly mounted fenders on the driver side. Lots of parts of the interior cladding and finally also the transport fuses in the dampers before delivery were not removed. At the moment I am more inclined to say our last Volvo was actually a pity, because we always liked the cars of Volvo very much. How are your experiences with the quality of the workmanship.

Hello together, one or the other of you may find my question a bit peppy or petty now, but in my opinion the instrument lighting in the current C70 is a little unhappy. If you go for example into a tunnel, you don’t see anything for several seconds, because the lighting of the instruments is rather delayed at first. Often I have the problem even at dusk, where you have to drive until it is dark enough. Since the tacho is still very deep or far back in this “cave” and the newer models have these silver tacho rings with inserted numbers, this is not very conducive for visibility. With my previous C70 II from 2007 the lighting was almost always on, even if the light was switched on and there was not this inreadability. With the current model, this is coupled to some twilight sensor, which also affects radio and Navi. Does anyone have any idea if you can change that somehow? I have next week customer service and would like to change that somehow…. Thank you for your help!
