Moin, I am constantly in trouble with the exhaust gas cleaning of my XC70 D5 model year 2012. After the first message came “Filter clogged, replacement required” (I don’t know the exact error name at the moment) I had a regeneration carried out by the tester – without success. So: Filter was removed and manually cleaned. The whole thing then held so about 2000km. Then the message came that the pressure did not hit. So the pressure sensor was changed. Also this was not of long duration. E rneut error message: “Filter full of nails with heads: new DPF. there was a new temperature sensor, because the old one could not be dismantled. The whole held then again about 2000km. Then again the message: Press not in order. On Kulanz then a new pressure sensor was installed and for safety again a regeneration was carried out on the tester. Same game: about 2000km later the control light for the exhaust gas cleaning went on again. Any ideas ? It is all new and i h never drive short distances. Tubes and cables were checked every time. All the work was done at a Bosch service and they are actually really good. Slowly, however, I have little desire for my car …

After only 8 years and not 130’000km the climate compressor says goodbye. In the CH it costs me the good 1500 incl. work, material and replacement car. Half a year ago a transmission exchange was due (fortunately in the Swiss Premium guarantee). Is the premium? I noticed this by a strange clacking in the stand operation, climate off, no noise. Climate on. Klack clack, like a defective warehouse… Cordial advice of the workshop master until repair: air conditioning NOT turn on, since Otherwise, there’s a threat of consequential damage.

Dear Volvo Community Two photos of my Volvo XC70 MY2013 just made in the appendix, in which I had two original Volvo LED TFL (LED TFL set from the Volvo V50/S40/C30) retrofitted by a Volvo garage of my confidence. Contrary to many of the opinions I had received – also from well-known Volvo garages in Switzerland – my project was not feasible, I did not give up and finally found an innovative Volvo garage, which already had very good experiences with LED TFL I wanted to have original Volvo LED TFL installed and no cheap China scrap products, such as those offered on many auction platforms. I am very satisfied with the product! As soon as the engine is running, the LED TFL will automatically turn on. Only these on the vehicle, no rear final lighting, only the LED TFL. The light switch is in the position “0”. As soon as the stand-up or turn-off is switched on, switch I have been looking for a suitable solution with LED TFL for about 3 years (initially for my then V50 MY 2011). Many customer service employees and garage bosses from well-known Volvo garages almost laughed at me, with my idea. But I didn’t let it stop me. In the end, I was also lucky enough to have an already upgraded Volvo XC70 MY2013 on the road. If you really want something – don’t give up – don’t stop at anyone and just trust yourself…. You can do anything – if you want it too… Ps. From MY2014 the new Volvo XC70 has the same LED TFL as standard, only with a different cover (this will be retrofitted to me as soon as the first vehicles have arrived in the Volvo garage and then the spare parts can be ordered). n, for this reason the photos still show the covers of the MY2013).For further questions I am happy to be reached by PN…

The topic is a bit older, but I still give my experience for the best. I changed from the Audi A3 1.8T to the S60 MJ2012 D3 (163ps @ 3500U/min) summum with Geartronics from about two weeks ago. I didn’t find it very difficult to make the decision for the Volvo in general. I had been looking at Volvo for a long time and I didn’t like the German brands very much from the outside design and the interior. At the beginning I thought about the 163hp diesel with oh I decided for the GT. To my taste the GT fits better with the vehicle. Actually I expected a higher consumption with the GT. But after the second tank I was surprised. 6,2l per 100km I think for the vehicle is completely OK. It was the first ride and I am still adapting my drive handle. According to BC I have a consumption of an average of 5,8l at the moment on the road but there are also 5 ,0 according to BC no problem. One way forward, I drove normally, as fast as the STVO allows…

Hello guys I’m interested in Volvo’s flagship with V8. After someone on the BAB made me look stupid in my Bavarian 335d, I would like to do something like that. Does anyone have any experience or recommendations with the model? I was only given that quality, workmanship and durability should play at a very high level.

Hello together Yesterday, as part of Service 2.0, a software update was made on my XC60 2014. The latest Navi cards were played up. Since I am regularly asked about the last version I have added the latest times. Otherwise, nothing has changed, no new apps, no built-in coffee machine and otherwise everything is the same. If I should look up something special, then report to you. I like to. Best regards Basler75

Hello! I recently bought one of these Volvo factory cars with Prins CNG system as young used. I am super satisfied, this is a very pleasant driving, and with a filling CNG (about 15-16kg) I manage the 300km. Can’t you complain! I notice a few details – does someone have experiences? 1. The automatic transmission is very smooth. When switching down from the 3rd to the 2nd gear, especially if you just let it run out and is no longer on the gas, it dangles e Is that normal? 2. Occasionally an error message comes, battery level weak or similar – I have already read with someone else in the forum. Is that because he was standing at the car dealership for a long time? 3. In the BC there is regularly an error message that the belts are not laid on the back seat – although there is no one there. Is this an electronic defect? 4. Does someone have experiences what retrofitting Bluetooth and/or Navi cost? Greetings Altenberg

Moin together! I intend to add an XC 70 III, year 1/11, km 152,000, 1 hd., switch, equipment Sunnum, 163 HP Diesel. So far I drive a V 70 I and have been active here for a long time. Are there any weaknesses I have to pay particular attention to? Since the car has AHK, I have to pay special attention to the drive? Which major maintenances (oil trap, particulate filters etc. are to be expected)? For tips and suggestions I am grateful to you here the link to the Aut o: http://ww3.autoscout24.de/classified/281097547?asrc=steas Greeting, Ben

Hello people and happy new. My father wants to buy a new car soon and the decision has been made on a Volvo XC60. He finds it chic and successful all around. So now the search for the right start – his driving profile should be 1/3 city, 2/3 AB and he drives about 20,000 km a year. Must haves include automatic, Xenon, Navi and max ~ 80,000 km / mileage and at least BJ 2011. Is there equipment that you consider absolutely important? Why? Finally, I would like to ask for your opinion on this model.http://m.mobile.de/vehicles/inserat/219550323.html?od=UP&sb=p Thank you very much for A.N.

Hello to the forum, I’m new here, therefore a few words ahead: I had only a Volvo (S60 2.4i) so far, with which I was very satisfied, but I could only drive for a short time. Because of stay abroad he had to leave again (all-wheel was asked). Now I would like to buy a new car at the latest at the end of the year. Currently I drive a BMW X3 3.0i, but BMW should not become it any more. Stay for me basically XC60 or the new Benz. utos. But this time I’m fluctuating… Now to the question: in the configurator I have seen the XC60 as T6 today with AWD, but as four-cylinder. Since when is it available in the version with four-wheel drive? Since I apparently missed the market launch. Does anyone already have experience with the car? Thanks and greeting Wolfgang
