Hi, I play with the idea to separate myself from my C70 D5 because I get my new MX5 in 6 weeks. Therefore, I am looking for a replacement for the days I don’t want to drive open, need as no winter suitable convertible. Since I was very satisfied with my C70, it should become a Volvo with the beautiful D5 engine again. How different is the C70 from the S80, apart from the platform: How big are the differences between D5 180PS & 5 Gang AT and D5 185PS 6 Gang AT? What has been changed on the engine? Are the seats (and headrests) as comfortable as in the C70? To be continued…

Just sit with the dealer of my full confidence and wait for my new Dunlop 3D winter tires on Segin. I find out when waiting for Volvo delivery bottlenecks and with the original rims not to follow up. My dealer had also put another combination in stock. Felge of another supplier and Semperit tires with warranty. As I trust my dealer, I got involved in the alternative. What I just wonder: Winter is, if I remember correctly, every year. Why is the car industry not prepared for it? My not Volvo in particular, only experienced the same 14 days at BMW. Also, instead of original, there was only one alternative.

With us the evaluation of a new car started. Our current V70 2.5T AWD we have gladly won, but the offensive Euro bonus strategy of Mercedes Switzerland (20 % discount on vehicles incl. special equipment and additional fleet discount) have awakened our interest in the E250CDi 4Matic T model. But with this price cruncher it is today in the practically same equipment as a new V70 AWD D5 with GT, 10’000 Swiss francs cheaper ( admitted, without the Volvo dealer already going into the negotiations to be 5% fleet discount have been offered there). Question in the round of the Volvisti: Was one of you already on the way with the same order? What motivated you to choose V70 AWD instead of the MB? Who of you even comes from the warehouse of the E-Class and is satisfied(er)? The “immigrated” of the right ex-V70 drivers I probably won’t reach. Nevertheless, I am interested in your opinion. The search function has caught me for 2 years in the past, so the first thing was offered there to be happy for the dealer.

XC 60 Drive Summum, EZ March 2011, approx. 7000 km: I’m basically (very) satisfied if the fuel consumption was not. According to BC on average 7.8 liters (actually more than 8) with extremely restrained driving over the entire 7,000 km (each 1/3 AB, rural road and city). The specified 5.9 liters (for me a purchase argument) are utopian! My problem/question: If you go off the gas, the instantaneous consumption indicator usually jumps to 0.0 liters within about 1 second. However, in recent times this does not happen more often. Instead, the instantaneous consumption according to BC only gradually returns and never returns to 0.0 liters. A residual consumption (about 1-1.5 liters) then always stops. The whole thing leads to my instantaneous consumption according to BC on an identical section of the route being about 1.5-2 liters higher than usual (did it have been tested several times on the way to work). Usually (but not always) this phenomenon has ended after a reboot, i.e. then the instant consumption indicator jumps again within about 1 second? Can I explain the gas?

Hello everyone, I have an XC60 from the year model year 2010, in which the nozzles for the windscreen wipers sit on the hood. These are jet nozzles, which I actually wanted to replace with fan nozzles (which are also available). Now I noticed recently with an XC60 from the model year 2014 that the fan nozzles above and under the hood are attached to an apron. This is of course much more practical, since the engine heat warms the nozzles immediately (at least partially).

Yesterday morning, 08:15, mileage: 202.459: a yellow light, in which combi I read: engine system Wart erf. The engine power sinks to felt 5hp. Right turn, engine off, start again, wrumm……. goes nevertheless!!! 100m later: a yellow light, in which combi I read: engine system Wart erf. engine power 5hp. F****** Call Assistance, 1h later the car stands on the tug, the replacement car is an Opel Astra petrol. Let’s see what will! The Opel once again taught me two things: – even on fabric seats you sweat – it may be that a petrol engine turns higher than a diesel. But do you want that?

I don’t know exactly what the boot opener is called! I mean the button where the boot is opened from the outside! It was damaged tonight and I’m looking for a replacement. 1. what is the professional name of the part? 2. Where can I get it at a reasonable price? Thank you

Hello, after years of driving VW, the beta test takes place with the customer and I don’t want to be the beta tester anymore, I looked around at Volvo. Actually it should be a passat variant. 😉 But high has got what at 2,08m. An XC60 – all-wheel should be with the following configuration and some question marks in my head. – Ocean Race or yet another variant ? – D4 with Polestar or D5 ? – manual gearbox or automatic ? – Business package PRO – driver assistance package – Comfort package “Light” – light package for comfort package – standing heater or steering wheel heater ? – rear camera ? – speed-dependent servo steering ? – DAB+ Is the five-cylinder mature and “full gas-proof”? Are there leather seats with ventilation, 2 Volvo sellers claim it, others negate it and on the net I could find it at Volvo nix. Is there the digital tacho in any equipment or only in certain questions? Are there leather seats with ventilation, 2 Volvo sellers claim it, other nein it…

Hello everybody, I don’t think anyone has put in here yet – in the FAZ is a driving report for the XC70:http://www.faz.net/-gyb-7p8e1 once again a funny conclusion: “The extra charge list is annoying.” Really? They know the extra charge list e.g. from Audi? Lighting glove compartment and third belt at the back as “extra”… The best is the comment “No one misses five or six cylinders.” I already get my popcorn greetings!
