  • Feedback on the Leasing Restraint

    My new XC60 is here and I wanted to share my experience of returning my first leasing vehicle with the interested ones. Since I am a passionate Volvo driver, my three years ago I advised me to try it with a private leasing. Advantage: No large maintenance costs and at regular intervals (if desired) a new car. It sounded very interesting to me and I agreed that the car would be a very nice one. a the option remained open for me to buy or leave the car after the leasing end. Well, the three years went by like in the flight and yesterday the separation of my beloved V70 was planned. When I decided to admit the V70 back in the summer and to drive a horny XC60 for it, I thought at regular intervals how it would work with the return of the vehicle and how “steng” it would be. I have to say that I was pretty good with the vehicle. andle, which doesn’t mean that I wash three times a week or so, just carefully deal with it, as you certainly do. Unfortunately, some time ago the bad marten had hit me, so that I had to record in the engine room a bad nibble at the dam, what I already pointed out and daruaf hired me to pay this at the return. He only said before: “Please don’t make it so hesitant, with loyal customers, we have certain playrooms” That was also so, yesterday the XC60 was picked up, then the V70 the Km stand was noted, once briefly looked around the car and since everything was in order, because protocol for the withdrawal of both of us was countersigned. I was so baff that it goes so smoothly and without problems, that I would now do it again at any time after the first leasing return. All my worries were in vain and I am glad to have decided so. Many greetings … your matze

  • Unround run

    Moin moin Drive a Volvo XC60 BJ 15 with the 2.4 l 5 Ender My problem: In the morning or after work when I start the run the slightly uneven and has speed fluctuations That makes it about 30 sec. After that it runs like a clockwork! Have read it out with VIDA and there were no errors in it! What could it be? Maybe at empty run controller (if the thing has) or maybe the throttle flap? Have definitely taken out the small sensor at the top of the suction bridge times and he was slightly deformed! Looks always funny when the car has fluctuations greeting

  • V60. Insert Vorfacelift instrument in Facelift

    Hello together, as you can see by my name, I have now changed from the Mercedes world to the Volvo world. After an accident I have now become the owner and driver of a Volvo V60 D3 (2.0l 4 Zyl diesel) MY 2015 Facelift and so far very happy. I find only the instrument cluster with the central speedometer and the speed in reduced form (almost a vertical band) next to it very unusual to the right. The display on the left of the tacho with the “Efficiency” needle is in my opinion Humbug. However, I have already looked for a lot on the internet and forums if it would be possible to install a combination instrument from the preface lift (which with the two classic circular instruments) into the facelift model. Quadi a downgrade. The problem with the lack of water temperature still does not seem to be solved. But I find two circular instruments with a fully-fledged revometer much more pleasant. So far I only have To based on digital display found that require programming via VIDA. Maybe someone knows if a rear-facing conversion on Vorfacelift might be more straightforward? Or maybe not at all? Thank you very much from my side as a Volvo newcomer.

  • Speedometer lighting

  • XC60 24D Help multiple turbocharger errors

    Moin Volvo driver, I hope someone can help me here or give me some advice.? I would be very grateful for that! It’s about the Volvo from an acquaintance. It’s an XC60 24D from the year 2010 with just under 160,000 km. History: on the way to vacation the hose fell off the turbocharger and so the vehicle was moved around 2000 km. The following errors are stored in the memory. If you delete the errors, the car becomes quite normal until the speed goes a little higher. The DPF has been cleaned the turbocharger has been overhauled, whereby the overhauler has said that the turbocharger has worked perfectly before.In the vehicle a lot of money has already been invested and yet no one can find the fault. Injector cylinder four has been replaced and learned What exactly everything has been changed, I can in the course of Maybe she has a similar problem. ? Thanks in advance

  • White smoke while accelerating and idle

    Hej together, on our journey today to Austria (about 800 km) I suddenly noticed a more intense smell in stop & go traffic – suddenly I let out a cloud of white smoke behind me when starting. Not every time when accelerating, but after longer idle or after a longer thrust drive phase. In the car no new Pope was chosen – therefore my first guess: water entry over the cylinder head seal? Oil over the turbocharger? Acceleration behaviour is t top. No jerking, quiet running, as usual. Water tank I check tomorrow by light. Anyone still ideas to calm me down or worry about? Other approaches perhaps? To the need goes by ADAC stop piggyback home and we in the rental car. It is important to me to risk no further damage… V60, D5 (D5244T11), 267,000 km. Greetings rlg

  • Cannot open Volvo V70 III tailgate

    Hello together, I have a V70 III, built in 2008 where the tailgate can no longer be opened at once. At the car the battery was empty due to the longer standing, which I had removed for charging. I do not know if this has something to do with the problem. The tailgate can not be opened either via the opener at the flap, as well as via the button in the interior or via the remote control. Otherwise the tailgate could also be opened electronically. I tried already by the insideTo open the part somehow, a lever like the 960 is unfortunately not available here. The cover on the inside I have already loose at the upper part, since the Bowden train moves to the handle still at the open. Who has a tip for me how to get the part back on? Thank you in advance! LG, Simon

  • Survey of the ZKD problem with the 5 cylinder diesel

    Also at the risk that the topic has already been discussed a little too often for some, I would like to try to start a survey. The concrete question is: was your 2.4l 5 cylinder diesel already affected by the well-known ZKD problem? Interesting to know: 1) Which year of construction/model year was it? 2) How far was the damage? 3) How far-reaching was the damage? (only ZKD, ZK or whole engine) To a bit of the perceived concern advice It would be nice, by the way, if the members who did NOT get this problem reported this. I just start: V70 D5 Bj14/Mj15, currently 65 tkm, so far no problems.

  • Volvo V70 III Year 2015 repair or sell ?

    Hey dear people, I own a Volvo V70 III from 03/2015 (9101/APX). I used to buy the car 2 years ago with 85000km down. Now I had to find out after delivery of the car in a workshop that there should be a) leaks in the manifold or turbo (not quite clearly without the front axle and steering) b) The KAT / DPF has apparently dissolved (I and the car mechanic at 104.000km mileage is very funny) c) Big shell broken from the DPF d) Autob Atterie seems to be coming to an end and should be replaced (says mechanic). I was called a price of approx. 3500 – 4000 EUR (if bad luck also more). Now I ask myself whether it is worth the sum to invest in the car and to have everything done or if I should ask myself what else I could get for the car. I also wanted to ask what you think of the price.
