  • How do you turn off your C70II in winter?

    Hello to all C70 owners, I hope, this topic did not exist yet, if yes, then I ask the fora manager not to be angry… To the question from the subject, the C70 to II is now not necessarily an all-year car or there will be some owners with season marks. The question is now, what do you do over the standing months in the garage with the car. Does it hold out without prejudice or are maintenance chargers of advantage. Just the battery will probably not be able to clamp off, or yet ? I would like to ask as a relatively new C70 II owner for reactions or advice kindly. However, have a full registration, however, would not like to use the C70 II if possible in winter.

  • Problem solving – creaking, guns and other sounds

    Hello, on request I would like to open a thread here that should contain problem solutions to the respective knarz and knarr noises. A clear problem description would be useful here, the solution approaches and, if possible, a cause research, so that users can discuss whether it really could have been because of this and if necessary even better solutions. Let’s help ourselves, because Volvo driving should be fun!

  • Sale S40

    Can anyone tell me how to sell a Volvo? I have waited 3 months now and no one called. I tried in newspapers, Autoscout24, etc… I sell an S40 2.4i summum from 07/2004 with 46,000km + premium sound 6CD memory seats Parkradar rear and Sculptor 17″. Maybe it’s the price (+/- 17.000€) or no one wants to sell a Volvo as a used car. I find the car really great but got a lease car in the intermittent period from work. Do you have tips (websites) where and for how much I could sell this car? Thank you!

  • Automatic re-locking

    servus, I noticed, if I untie the vehicle, then open a door again, the vehicle does not lock itself by itself! I know, this is not explicitly stated in the operating instructions. (see attachment) as it stands there, yes, only as soon as I have opened something. why does the vehicle not lock, if I have opened a door and then close again ? is this on deadlock ? that means the vehicle would close when I sit in the vehicle and a little later Deadlock would become active…….sequence: I don’t come out of the vehicle anymore. am I right there ? grias cc

  • ADAC-> 8h Waiting period

    Moin, I have to get rid of some frustration and would like to hear your opinion about it. On Monday my wife stayed with her car on the way to work. She then called the ADAC and they said to her “it would take about 8h” until someone comes by. ATTENTION to -12°C without a motor…. At the end of the story was that I packed up in the office and dragged my wife home. There was a quick search for the mistake and after 20min the little girl ran again…. Learned just now I’m not about any statistics or flights, but just about the “service”. I have ADAC Plus + partner card and pay accordingly my contribution. I’m also not about the money but simply about the fact that when something is, I want to get help. If I have to do everything myself then I can save the money and donate it to me now too and I can’t just be there in 5min. But I’m clear about the fact that in Berlin… I don’t want to get help. If I have to do everything myself then I can’t have to do it myself, I can’t have to say that I’t have to say that I’ve thought about the same thing about it.

  • RTI-NAVI: no GPS reception

    For 10 days now my RTI-Navi won’t work because it doesn’t have a GPS reception anymore. It started off the last WE, when I noticed at home that the current position was about 40 km away from my home. I thought about a short-term problem with the satellites. Now I wanted to try it again yesterday, but situation is unchanged. I can say the following: – Route DVD was taken from the player more often, new pushed in, but this does not help. – New route calculation is possible, but always starting from the above mentioned new (but wrong) current position XY. – I start to drive towards the north. The blue pointer on the display “plows” now through a lake and then lands somewhere xx KM further westward. During this so-called ride there are also no arrows concerning L/R-bbiegen etc. – In a submenu I find the indication: GPS 0, here I should be standing at the top. – A further submenu can’t be told to me about the date of 31.12.2000 and then the normal time again.

  • Main Volvo Pages Sources Links Databases

    Hello together, as the title already says, I would like to ask you about important and helpful websites, sources, databases, links, sources, parts number collections, forums etc. on the topic Volvo in general and the V50 / C30 / C70 / S40 in particular. I am looking forward to such a collection in my blog, which is about the V50 and its paint care here on MT online. On the one hand out of self-interest, because I am interested in topics around the V50, on the other hand as a collection for other interested parties and seekers on certain topics. I don’t know how I want to structure and build the whole thing exactly, it depends entirely on what material comes together here. For your help I would be grateful Gruss E.

  • Volvo V50 crossbars Year 2007

    Good evening, I have to buy two new crossbars for the V50. As I have noted, the crossbars from the Volvo dealer cost 180 euros more than the (like?) from the general dealer. Since the Swedes also receive these pieces only delivered and there are not so many producers of them, it is only logical to buy these so-called “original spare parts” equal in the general trade. The question is only who Volvo buys and which brand will take if several comptable are available to choose from… Does anyone like me know that? Thank you, San
