Hello people, certainly not exactly the same car, but there will surely be people who compare both cars before buying one another. More car for the money will certainly be given to Skoda and also the entry price will not be like the V70 at 30,000 EUR. One or the other family papi will get into the pondering… here goes to the gallery of Skoda: www.skoda-auto.de/index.php?e=1-32-7-1&mod=1&bid=#5218 and from AMS: http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/… 1411256.html 85 pictures: http://carscoop.blogspot.com/…/…erb-estate-mega-photo-gallery.html greetings, Eric

Moin, I’m currently looking for a spacious family carriage. I’ve shot myself on the V70. The following basic data are necessary for me: The following basic data are sufficient conditions for me: Do you have any tips for me, what could be really superfluous of it? Can you bring the AHK into the price negotiation with you? Are these realistic ideas? If you have any questions, I’ll be happy to expand my list! 🙂

Hello interested, I am still new in the forum. I drove a Saab 9.5 station wagon for about 15 years. I “changed” the vehicle with 171000 km four weeks ago for an XC 60 D5 diesel with 205 hp. It is 4 years old and has just done 106000 km. Now it is spread in the media that besides VW also particularly Volvo with the exhaust gas values should have cheated. What comes to the diesel drivers? Will the individual possibly have to bear the consequences or will the manufacturers I can’t imagine that politics will accept the sometimes very high differences in the emission values measurements. I’m a little concerned about the future of today’s diesel engine. Please write your opinion. Greeting from the coast

Today saw that it has fresh oil stains in my car park. So in the afternoon to the check. Did not find anything from where this came because the whole engine was smeared with oil. So evaporated and agreed I will pass on Monday morning. In addition they have 1 liter of oil refilled. Although it was before 3000 Km in the mache because I had already increased oil consumption. Was then everything ok. Oil he has not lost any. Until now. I have covered a box, it drips munter before I’ll go by tomorrow and take a spare car with me, but at 100t Km he just drove in.

Moin Fahre currently has a V70 D5 from 2002. But I intend to switch to the new model in the foreseeable future. I posted this post already in the V70 II forum, but unfortunately I didn’t get any feedback yet. Maybe I’m more lucky here. So I looked at a V70 III with D5 engine a few days ago. Actually the engine is nice dry. But… the intake tube is very smeared from below. I’m not sure if the oil or diesel is. The pipe comes from the air filter (gear transmission). From the bottom, a perhaps 3-4cm thick tube goes to the intake pipe (just before the intake pipe goes to the rear (crank housing ventilation?)). I think that the dirt comes from this area. Does anyone have any idea what problem the engine might have, possibly worn out piston rings or weak spot seal? I know, is a little like coffee set lehserei. But maybe it is also a well-known pro blem. Would I be very pleased about friendly information. LG Ralph Oh yes, does someone have the opportunity to get something out about the car using the VIN?

Hello Volvo fan community For weeks I have been desperately looking for the LED interior lighting for the latest Volvo XC70, as it is used according to Volvo Switzerland in the knife vehicles (e.g. Geneva Motor Show, Auto Zurich, etc.). However, these lights are not available as accessories and are not available anywhere else. Volvo Switzerland is very covered in this respect. Who knows what LED lights have been installed in the interior lighting or where the “Fah Fair” lights are used. I am grateful for every little tip! In the appendix a picture of the modified LED interior lighting of a Volv XC70 on the occasion of this year’s “Auto Zürich”. Ps. According to eyewitness on site, these are individual small LED diodes, which are arranged in star shape (inside 3 / outside 6). Thank you for your help! Best regards, Mario

Hi! After I haven’t found a contribution to my problem here, I’ll get one myself. My Volvo V60 with D2 machine BJ 2012 is making screaming noises when starting up. I noticed it for the first time today when starting up the mountain. The noise can be heard under load from approx. 1,600-1,700 revolutions. Had no opportunity today to record the screaming or to locate it more closely. I’ll see if it happens again tomorrow and if yes, a recording and post here. I’m happy about your answers! Trish

For my S60 MY2011 with diesel 163 HP machine I think about the retrofitting of a Webasto Thermo TOP Evo 5 heater with Thermocall. However, I came across various statements in the forum regarding the setting of the automatic climate control. As I understand it, the heater controls the blower motor for the interior after reaching a certain cooling water temperature. Temperature and valve position of the ventilation are not changed. Position Automatic air conditioning on AUTO and Temp. at 21°C after 30min heating time for an ice-free disc? It is only important to me that the windshield is ice-free.

Good day together I wanted to throw the question into the round here. Found a nice front spoiler of VParts.https://vparts.se/…/…-lap-frontspoiler-till-volvo-v70-08-13.html. Now it is on the side that it should fit only on a V70 bj. 08-13. I have an S80 bj. 2007, does not fit also ? Hope someone already has experience with VParts and the problem.

Hej, I’m a hobby Mercedes screwdriver and could so far successfully prevent someone from the family from buying a Volvo, which is not easy here in Sweden! Now my nephew came by yesterday to present his new car! A V60 from 2011 with 2 liter diesel engine 163 hp and automatic 230,000km run converted approx. 6000 Euro Very nice car! At the visit I fell on the both rims behind were unusually warm / hot! Since the coverings have only approx.2mm covering, I offered him to switch to the pads and take a look at it! I already looked at 2 videos because of the electric hand brake. One with 12 volts on the actuator drive the piston back and one disassemble the motor and turn it back by hand! That would be no problem. I would do this: 1. Pick up the rear on both sides and check wheels for free access 2. Use the hand brake and check wheels if they block 3. Remove the wheel 4. Remove the brake caliper 5. Control the engine 6. Press the piston with the reset tool all the way back 7. Possible pistons by braking and driving out again to check smoothly 8. Repeat points 5 and 6 9. Remove pads, disassemble and clean saddle holders. Floating pins fat 10. Reassemble saddle holders and insert mounting plates 11. Attach ceramic paste to installation points and install pads 12. Mount caliper 13. By pedalling the brake pedal Insert piston 14. Wheel on freeg Check fear 15. Handbrake 3x press and release 16th wheel for block check for bein Handbrake 17th wheel for freewheel check for handbrake Is this OK? Do you do it differently? Thanks for tips!
