Hello all, I need your advice about the four-wheel drive from my recently bought 3.2 XC70. I drove up to the forest with my dog this morning. I went then as always right on the grass strip. I wanted to try if the four-wheel drive works. And to my scare I had to find out that the wheels turned off at the front left. So I don’t know about my old 03 XC70. Please take a look at the photos, I don’t know now if this is normal or o b the four wheel is defective. I had this problem with the old XC at the time and there was at 275 Tkm the gearing of the sleeve rotated round. That’s why I would like to have the opinions of the professionals. Thank you! Gruss, Michael

Good morning Allesamt, I have some question marks around me. Available are: v70 from 2008 RTI Performance Audio Theoretically one could order a return camera with in 2008. But…where was/is this connected? On the radio…or also directly on the monitor of the RTI possible? However, I don’t ponder over a return camera, but the possibility to get an image signal on the screen of the RTI. Is there any experience?

Maybe someone has already asked you about the Volvo customer service and got an answer. I have been waiting for an answer since 24.3.. Is there anything else coming?? My question: from mid-April, HVO 100 should be introduced as a supplement to the regular diesel at some gas stations. My V60 (VEA 2015) does not have a sticker for the use in the tank lid. There is only “Diesel’. On my 22er XC60 is a sticker in the tank lid that B7 and XTL can be used. Ivo a release for HVO 100? For which vehicles or which model years? Do you consider the use?

Moin, Servus in the round. I’m interested in how I can use my iPhone with the functions “Map Navigation” and Spotify via the car radio? Greetings and thanks in advance.

Hello together, somehow I find it hard to switch to diesel. Therefore, my question, how reliable the injectors, AGR valve, particle filters etc. are. What additional problems lurking with the diesel? There the gasolineers make less stress because this is not installed. How are your experiences. Currently I drive a V70 from 2007 (2.4 suction cups); my driving profile are approx. TKM 20-25 predominantly rural road. The alternative would be a V60 D3 with 136 hp (five cylinder) from 2014. it should be about 2 L iter use less but the real saving is also only about 300 Euro p.a..https://www.kleinanzeigen.de/…/2913900921-216-6012 Thanks Manfred

Hello dear community, I have a problem with the electrically operated tailgate of my XC 60, built in 2011. When opening, the one-sided drive squeaks extremely loud and makes me a mockery in every parking lot. Lubrication is allegedly not possible and an exchange according to information from the workshop is not easy, since the required spare part of the one-sided drive is no longer available (is not listed in the relevant spare parts shops). he tailgate on today’s usual two-sided drive would be so expensive that this can’t be recommended for a 14-year-old car, as the costs would almost reach the residual value. Does anyone have any advice! Thank you.

Hello Have a question for my neighbor. With your xc60 the electric tailgate spins for a week. From nothing an engine (not heard) in the tailgate makes noises. Then it lasts for hours and then goes away again. At the time no reaction on the tailgate. No matter what you press- it does not do anything. But the noise remains. It was previously not done at the car- neither driven nor opened. I self-trained mechatronics technician do a different job for years abe r I was wondering if anyone knows Dad problem. Has happened 3 times in the last 7 days. But wasn’t at home at that moment. So the sound just comes like that. Are at noon out of the house car stood since the evening before and hear the noise. Something turns on by ghost hand. If one then opens the tailgate / closes hours later there are no problems noises. Thank you Beautiful Christmas

Hello together! I have already searched here in the forum but find only threads where the first 2 posts are about the VEA D3, and after that is straight on the 5 cylinder and would like to start a new thread where it really is about the VEA D3. My Internet research has revealed that there probably is no increase in performance for the D3 from Polestar. Heico has something in the program but it can be paid with just under 230€ (and so much money is It’s not worth it) Then there’s BSR, RICA, MTE etc. BSR: Would I like it in principle, but I come from Austria and the dealers who can activate the control unit are not very close. Of course, I would like BSR very much at the price, at the moment there is a 20% action. Or are there other dealers where you can unlock your control unit? MTE: LS car would be within reach, I already sent an email there. if they have something for my D3, but I have never received an answer. RICA: Am I right in assuming that you can order the Isoftloader from RICA and then program your car yourself or do you have to unlock the control unit again? Maybe someone also has a recommendation where you can go, I would also like a real vote on a test bench, if the one really has an idea of the matter and not just 3 values screwed up and then says 200hp. Thank you very much

Hello together I am planning to purchase an XC60 or XC70. Can someone please tell me what properties the fixed phone has? There is not much to be found in the documentaries and the friendly ones – well – don’t seem to be competent in every respect. I’m interested: Can a phone book be loaded (not that on the SIM card). Is there a favorite list of the most used numbers? Can SMS be read? Is the reception/transmitting quality good? ie you generally deal with the phone history? Would it be nice if there was the Bluetooth profile SAP – how can you use the antenna if you only choose the BT variant. Thanks for a feedback Danny

Hello! Wanted to get your advice! We drive a V70 2.0D (136 hp) BJ 2009, 100000km, actually no problems except for a few small things. As far as I know, is available at the next service timing belts and DPF, so will be an expensive matter (estimate approx. 2000 Euro). Now in Austria there are quite good offers for V90 new vehicles, generous discount up to 25%! Stand now before the decision to invest a lot in the V70 next year or new car. What would you like to do? and if V90, which engine? Speaks something against the 150 hp diesel or rather the gasoline engine with 190 hp. Larger engines would not come into question for me! Looking forward to your opinion! Thank you already!
