  • VOLVO V70 MJ2013 D5 AWD (EZ 07/2012) Snarling, frictional noise in chassis

    Hello together, after 5 unsuccessful workshop stays I now post my problem here. Vehicle: Volvo V70 D5 AWD Geartronic with 4C chassis KM performance so far: 0 to 23.500 km EZ: 07/2012 After the first 2500 km the problem occurred the first time. The problem: When driving around the curve, driving, parking, always when the car is slightly entangled, there is a noise like with a 20 year old VW Passat with 500,000 km. A knarze from the chassis area. Therefore wa In the beginning all the springs and moving parts were lubricated. Then, at some point, the stabilizers on the front axle were replaced and various other things were done. Now at the engine bearing something adjusted. Everything failed. 1000 – 1500 km after the workshop stay, the noise is back. Does anyone have a similar problem or an idea what it is looking for? If someone has a similar problem, please contact me 🙂 I’m a bit desperate, it’s a brilliant car, but these workshop stays are annoying. I needed to wash the vehicle ONLY, otherwise it has always been the friendly one during these stays… Dear greetings and all still nice Christmas. If anyone else has other questions about this vehicle type, I will gladly answer them. Felix

  • No one wants to take a Heico into payment

    Tach Forum Since I want something “new” so slowly again, I made a search at Mobile and Co.. To have an approximate value what I could get so much I invested the 8€ at Schwacke. Since the there no Heico “know” I have given a normal S 60 T 6 AWD in Summum + special equipment. With this value in mind some dealers wrote for another car and asked what they would give for mine. Today came the 11th cancellation that they would not take such a car into payment. As this would be practically unfor sale. One of them was who would have given me 1800€. I have never experienced such a thing if I wanted to give a car in payment.

  • Purchase advice XC70

    My father wants to buy something else after 25 satisfied Audi years, wants diesel with all-wheel drive, automatic and good equipment, and since he drove my V70 times, with Volvo. He sent me these links => XC70 and XC70. I find above all the one in Oyster chic, the equipment is quite lush and I think the km stands should not scare anyone. What do you think about the prices and generally about the 2 candidates? Forum-known information about engine etc. I have I find it rather ambitiously priced, knowing that the XC has a higher price level than the V. Does anyone have experience with the provider?

  • Average consumption of the XC- 60

    Hello dear XC trailer Currently the average consumption of my XC is 7.5 liters. To this should be said: I do not step the moose and do not drive like an 80 year old. The distance consists of 70% highway and 30% highway. It is switched at 1500-2000 revolutions. I like to drive a hand shift and pass also gears. Tank content reached so far without driving it empty up to 900 km. For a 2 to car very good speed highway not over 120 h/km rather lt. Tempom at 110 and remember to start driving early enough without stress with the current glide and not run at the tank coffee to go and the engine !!!

  • XC70 D5 2008 with Polestar – result surprised

    Hello together, call me naive, but before the tuning I did not deal with the final speed at Polestar. The higher number of Newton meters and the better passage were reason enough for me. Now the data was entered and the final speed has risen to 222 km/h. What does this look like with you? I read here that there is a limitation of the final speed at Dickelch? And so far I have only read from about 5 km/h. aunt. Was there still something “screwed” at Polestar? Many greetings Dietmar – who does not test the final speed in the weather

  • Heat exchanger (indoor heating) XC60 I D5 BJ 2010

    Hello, with my XC 60 I BJ 2010 unfortunately only a lukewarm ventilation comes from the heating slots in the interior. The Volvo dealer said it would be the heat exchanger to change. But you don’t necessarily have to use an original spare part. Has anyone already had experience with the exchange of the heat exchanger? Is this very complicated? Has the XC60 always installed an additional electric additional heating in addition to the heat exchanger? that these would only fit with vehicles without electric additional heating. Thank you!

  • Volvo Price Lists – Collectable Thread (1993 – today)

    In recent times, buyers of vehicles are also increasingly coming into the forum, whose vehicles have been bought as leasing backers or used cars. In the purchase decision, details are often sought for comparison, which result from the price lists of the respective model years. I would like to collect the price lists for the vehicles of the SPA- (60s and 90s series) and the CMA-platform respectively, if necessary create FAQ-articles daruas and thus bundle the price lists centrally and thus I would like to concentrate on the German price lists. So if someone has price lists lying around as PDF of the model years from 2016, please post here as an appendix – I sort them accordingly. Helpful would be information in the post about note: Discussions about the content of the price lists please limit in this thread to the absolute minimum – otherwise the last bit of clarity suffers

  • The driving beam shall not remain on:

    Good day dear community, I unfortunately had to cling deep in the Swedish forest at night, which my main light does not work. Light horn works perfectly, therefore then almost an hour lever-holding through the Pampa thundered. Since the light horn works, my first idea was to do something with the lever/switch. I removed the turn signal switch afterwards, but the contacts of the board were only slightly dirty and the cleaning did not change anything. My next attempt would be Checking the corresponding relay, but where is it? Inside clicks under the glove compartment, I see only safety. Also interesting is that yesterday when demonstrating the problem it worked the first time (remote light remained on until repeatedly pressing the switch), but then no more. I tried to reproduce today, but today it didn’t work the first time. Other ideas and impulses are welcome. Thank you and nice day to you.

  • Original spare part or forgery?

    I intend to change the crossbars at my XC70. Since it is necessary to adjust the track after that I decided to grab original Volvo parts after some consideration, even if these are quite expensive. 220€ per page I paid for it at Vikingparts. Today they arrived. For the first time with an original spare part completely unpacked and not in the blue Volvobox. Not even upholstery material has put Vikingparts in the package, so that the P aket arrived half cracked and the paint on the crossbars is already in some places. Apart from that, however, I have clear doubts whether it is at all original crossbars from Volvo. Normally all Volvo parts have an excellent quality. On the photos you can see that the rubber bush is quite pleated and the crossbar is covered with welding pearls. I bought an extra original part to be quiet there and am now absolutely not sure also What do you think about it?
