  • temporary loss of performance v50 2.0 ltr. diesel.

    Hello, yesterday I found that all at once the performance is missing when speeding up. the car drives quite normally only you have the feeling as if the half of the ps is missing. if I start the car again everything is normal again until the performance goes again flutes. otherwise no jerking or so. ruckel is only when speeding up the full performance is there. when the performance is gone, is also the ruckel gone! jemannd has an idea what that could be. achja. bj 2004 , 2,0 diesel 225 .000km. thank you

  • Summer, sun, free ride and insect attack

    a greeting and a hello to the Volvo round, the title of the topic says everything, so you drive from A to B and back again, get out of the car and you get a scare when you see the front and the windshield. So who doesn’t know it, so cleaning is required, which costs from the outside the usual effort. But unfortunately I also had to find out with my C70II that also the climate cooler or the cooler behind the grill is also dirty. There is now good advice expensive … Since d he Grille can only be removed very cumbersomely or hardly, it is just laborious with a long brush to carefully remove the insects superficially. Therefore my question to you, how do you clean this cooler area again ? What possibilities are there to restore cleanliness here ? Would I be very pleased about answers and thank you in advance !

  • Purchase advice V50 2.0D Momentum equipment

    Hello to the Volvo forum, I am about to buy my first car (budget: 7000 €) and after a long time decided for a Volvo V50 2.0D. Since I am an absolute layman in terms of cars, I first talked to numerous acquaintances about what they generally think of Volvo etc… The quintessence was, rather take something “solid”, i.e. Mercedes,Audi, VW. Well, when I then made it clear that I am not the type for said brands and this was also of the Desig I didn’t really find it appealing (how nice is the V50 from the outside, let alone from the inside!), I went to the search. It was clear that it should be a diesel (the 2.0 should be very solid). Now I found a place at the friendly gravel dealer next door…. Have already looked at it on site with a friend who has a little more idea of car than I (not hard) and it looked so far good. From the outside as far as okay the interiors looked also very good -Volvo V50 2.0d Momentum -177,530 km -100 kW (136 hp) -Diesel (particle filter) -04/2006 EZhttp:///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /ww3.autoscout24.de/classified/264901944?pr=0&fromparkdeck=1

  • Change dust sleeve of the drive shaft

    Servus together, would be very grateful if someone had a solution for my problem. With my Volvo V50 T5 Built 2004 (220 hp) with automatic transmission, the dust sleeve on the gearbox side is torn and if I am already there, would like to renew both, also the wheel side. I ordered both cuffs (gear and wheel side) from the company Polar Parts (no universal cuffs). What’s funny to me is that the wheel side cuff is very flexible in front of me. so that I have no worries to get this with a spreader cone over the joint bearing. With the gear-side cuff it looks different, because this is more rigid and not so flexible. Here I fear a problem when covering over the spreader cone even if the spreader cone has been treated with enough lubricant before. As a hobbyist I have only one spreader cone and no spreader with compressed air! Now my question: Is there a different procedure with the Wech I’m only familiar with the method of spreading. Can someone send me a guide? Or, does the spread cone only work with universal cuffs, because they may be more flexible? Greetings Chris

  • V50: RTI Update Firmware + Map Material

    Hello out there, after our last error with the RTI of our V50 it is enough for me now. It has to be an update. I have two questions: 1. First I wonder if there is a possibility to run a firmware update, so that this Navi can be improved a bit towards modern times. If so, where can I find something like this online? 2. I don’t quite know which card update I need for our V50 BJ 07/2006. This would be great help. The system information was displayed: HW P/N 0030732907 A SW P/N 0030732917 AB SW-Version 00001206 Card version EEU_01_200603M It would be great if someone could help me with firmware update and matching card update here. D A N K E. Best regards, Oldirty37

  • Volvo S40 1.8 Questions about purchase/car

    Good day dear Volvofangemeinde, I would like to buy a 2007 Volvo S40 petrol (since I live in Düsseldorf I prefer not to risk anything with the diesel and in general I only have about 6000-9000 km of running power per year.) Now I wanted to ask the drivers of this car a few questions, because I have not found everything yet or am too stupid for it. First of all as far as I understand there is the Volvo S40 1.8 only as 5 gear shift. I read that he has at 130 KM/h in 5th gear to the 4000 rpm and 7l/100km. Can someone confirm that? Since I’m still searching, I wanted to ask which equipments there are or how they are sorted. There are the Momentum and Kinetic and apparently others. I would like a good sound system from the beginning, but i.e. where was the Volvo that was installed only from 2008. Does anyone know about the equipment? I would like to take a fully/well equipped Volvo

  • Noise and vibration in the clutch pedal

    Moin moin, in advance the mandatory information about my vehicle: Volvo V50 Engine: 2.0D BJ: 2006 KM: 190.000 Since my last ride I can observe the following: I have no gear inside and do not kick the clutch pedal: everything is fine. If I start to press the pedal a little bit I hear a noise after a few mm clutch pedal path as if something rubs together (not loud, but already perceptible). I push it further through it goes away, but I get light vibrations in the pedal. W I have virbations and also a changed noise, that I can not really describe.The gears switch cleanly through and when I drive on the highway comfortably in the 6th gear in front of me, then everything is as always. No increased consumption, no exiting gears, no smell, no whistling, no nothing. I mention the last things, since I have of course already tried google and motor talk myself. Spontaneously I would have been on stage. klager and/or ZMS typed, but since I am layman and the symptoms somehow only partly fit the parts I addressed, I wanted to ask here. I was not in the workshop yet, but will be done this week. Thanks already for your trouble and your time.

  • Differential pressure sensor or not? – 1.6D is bumpy

    Hello everybody! short history: At the beginning of the year the box is already like a goat “ridden”; so new DPF pure. When everything went a long time well until last (2 weeks), it has bucked again, although much less. the symptoms: – only bucks when it is cold (we have here just 15-16°C early) – massively only shortly before regeneration – after regeneration after “daslaune” and clearly less to not at all – always around the 2000RPM – feels like short-term “breath standstill” respectively. “mortorbrake” “full cannon” for fractions of a second – error memory doesn’t give anything How did I get on the suspected differential pressure sensor? -> I read a lot about the week. However, it was difficult to find anything clever about these concrete symptoms because in fact every forum side-war scenes were opened and the threadstarters never reported again. But the pressure sensor somehow crystallized out. So! To them spezialists ode r possible “victims” of the differential pressure sensor: fits my suspicion or is something quite different? So slowly the fun at the box passes me: DPF, “intake art”, drive shaft and wheel bearing in 6 months… Greetings and thanks already! ps. before here again the “sparing pigs” the topic carpern: – DPF -> volvo – wave -> volvo -> built in by my housemech – camp -> what clever of my housemech

  • Question catalog Diesel problems/DPF?

    Hello Feels here once a week a DPF plagued person opens up and describes his problem. Then about 5-7 questions follow, until the situation is clear, always the same. Does it possibly make sense to design a small question catalog in order to find the basics clearly in the first post? In about: MY and motor (1,6/2.0) mileage: DPF exchanged (when)? DDS exchanged (when)? hoses tested/changed? additive always filled? current status? error memory (if read out) I am rather a “B” enziner”, therefore the request to the “Diesel” for comment and addition as well as to everyone for one opinion. Edit thinks that the question about the route profile (short distance?) must not be missing.
