Hello together, for the first time have a little problem with my S40 2,4i from 2004 (34,000km). And it sometimes does not jump on the last days or only if you tap the accelerator pedal very briefly. After that the cold run runs directly up as usual and it runs without murmuring. The same was now as I did before, so the engine was still quite warm. Already funny, at Minus 24°C the little elk always jumped without mucking and now where ́s warm he makes mucken Had that already one of you and can tell me what that could be? Have no time to look at the friendly one at the moment. spark plugs were changed before about 6000km and in the driving operation one notices pure nothing… Thanks already and greetings Hardy

Hello currently we drive as a second car a small Smart Diesel. Consumption despite commuting via highway <4l. Only we are looking for an alternative - and have also thought about Volvo (i.e. i^). How does a C30 with >100,000km with the small 1.6 engine behave? What would one have to pay attention to when buying and in which price region (private / dealer) a C30 settle? Have e.g. found here C30 at autohus via mobile.de equipment would be completely sufficient. Driving profile are daily 80km with 2/3 highway Thanks & Greetings

Hello… somehow the car doesn’t give me any rest… I forgot – allow me a few questions: Lt. Volvo sellers generally have no problems with DPF and permanent short distances. Also not almost exclusively… does this statement really or usual nonsense? Are there differences in the chassis between e.g. 2.4-140hp and T5 – about other brake discs? The facelift 2009… you can certainly be different in taste… but the car has also become significantly heavier… what really became (I know: front + minimal rear, LED lights, as far as I see other tacho number sheets) everything so changed? Did knarzen (already read complaints there… would you like opinions too!) or similar by additional stiffenings reduced / switched off? Was what changed on the interior (display/tacho/switch/switch)? Small petroler: Is it strange that you can find the 140hp engine without the slightest problems or big costs to me? Can you officially make it and also register the doors? Did the two small petrol tubes not have a visible option? Do you think that there is a problem? Do not find a problem?

Hello Folks I want to change certain things about my Volvo and want to change your opinion about it. so start with the standlight, I’m thinking about whether I want to build LED or those of Phillips in order to make it really white. e.g.http://www.hid-lights.com/products/led/194/T5-1W.html for the marklight/inside roomhttp://www.hid-lights.com/products/led/1036/1036-6w.html I’m still looking for something sensible for high-light… may also be 90/ 100Watt. Should be the HB3 light bulb or? I honestly don’t understand the Bi-Xenon. I ride a summum, because I thought that Bi-Xenon also means the long-distance light is switched with Xenon… A very different question on which I can’t find an answer yet, what is that for a place in the glove compartment that looks similar to a slot for credit cards?

Hello, I’m thinking about buying a Volvo V50 4-cylinder gasoline engine. My price idea is between EUR 17,000 – EUR 19,000, the Turbo engine should not be. The Volvo V50 should be because I don’t really want to buy BMW, Mercedes and Audi – visually the car appeals to me. The car should be a maximum of one year old and run about 30,000 km, now I’ve read a lot here and am not quite sure about all the postings anymore, should I really buy a Volvo V50? The diesel problems are now known to me, but I find here a few entries from petrol drivers drive. Can I buy a Volvo V50 with a good conscience or should I wait because the purchase doesn’t have to take place right away from now.

We plan to replace our V50 petrol engine 1.8 l with another V50 in the autumn. In view of the lower fuel consumption, a diesel engine (109 or 136 hp) would be an interesting option. In this context, I would like to know more about the following points: !) can a V50 diesel engine be driven as fast as a petrol engine? 2) The problem of turbocharger failure: does this occur more frequently with diesel engines? Can the problem possibly narrow down to certain years of construction? 3) Do the diesel engines have timing belts or chains? 4) Does the particulate filter have to be replaced regularly? If yes: costs for this? Thanks already fiete

Had from the official Volvo side an offer of a Volvo dealer for a C 70 D 3 Aut Summum, Xenium for 29900 Euro.EZ 04/2011 with 16600 km. After 240 km arrived there my wife first noticed that the bonnet had no symmetrical seat, i.e. the columns on the sides were different wide. My question whether this car had an accident was immediately negated. Next, my wife noticed that the windshield was without Volvo stickers, so probably not an original part. As if then the parking aid wanted to try out, which should be available according to description in front and back, it hit at the rear, while it did not make any mucks at the front, although its activation was displayed in the display. After again careful viewing, we could neither identify any sensors at the front, compared this again in the car house with other vehicles and were confirmed by the fact that there was no fault in this vehicle. My question about the windshield was dismissed, that it was probably just as unimportant as the question of whether the Aral or Shell did wrongly take the replacement for me at the front.

moin…. after the torture of the search where I found nothing clever, I wanted to ask if I can drive the above-mentioned rim / tire combination without problems on my car / allowed. have received a part report and an opinion for the allocation of a supplement to the abe. the part report is to be entered in the car papers, I know that. but the other is not a proper ABE, or ?! I have to have the wheel / tire combination entered, or?! I would like to do so, since I have no bock on paperwork in the car. I prefer everything inside registration. well my question is whether I have to work something on the vehicle, wheel house shell or. did not intend to let the vehicle ever go deeper. so original drive work remained there. because it is in the onsets, that must be provided for sufficient freedom of use. because I gave the original? frag nach, since I know it from my original car without having to know any more than 225/45.

When I saw my V50 the first time – one day after it was unloaded from the truck, he had 17,2 km on the speedometer. On the display was still “transport mode” or similar. On the pick-up day then, he had only 0.2 km also the speedometer – so he was reset! So I asked, assured me that no one was driven with the vehicle and that at Volvo is like that with the removal of the transport mode and the transfer inspection, the km counter is reset. Is that really so?

Hello, My V50 2.0D BJ 2005 has now nearly 260,000 km down. With just over 240,000 I had the DPF extended, was then sent to a specialist company and cleaned. What my free workshop did not do is to replace the differential pressure sensor. Now I have read that this should definitely be done? About 10 days ago I had the unpleasant situation that after about 5km drive on the road, the Volvo suddenly took no more gas, power as in a R4, at Umin from 2000 the box was extremely ruckelten. After some kilometers I stopped, pulled the key, again in and again started, afterwards everything again normal. Now 1200 km ski holiday with roof box behind me, the problem did not occur again, however I had on a motorway ride, when I briefly drove about 170 km/h, a sudden “power hole” to the left, which is like a “hushing” or “swrinkling” to the left again, the problem was still present to me, what still happens to me, that the consumption can be about 0.3 km/h more than the current consumption?
