  • Premium Sound – Door Panel Clattering

    Hello! For about 2 weeks I have been the proud owner of a V60 DRIVe with Premium Sound and some other extras. At the moment I am (still) very happy with the vehicle…. Something bothers me: The left door door (passenger door) is already clapping at medium volume of the Premium Sound system. Is actually the panel and not the speakers. When pressure on the door door door the noise is gone. Even at low speeds and cold interior is the flap n sometimes to hear… Does anyone still have problems with a clattering door panel?? What can be done in such cases? Do not want to go to the workshop right away. I fear that disassembly of the panel in the workshop will not remain without visible damage.. Say this from experience. My idea would be to attach some transparent silicone to the bottom of the door panel (between cladding and lacquered door frames). Is this a good idea?? Is the panel a good idea? as usual fixed with clamps and screws?? Is behind the door panel a foil or a metal plate?? Would I be very pleased about a few answers… Thank you!!

  • Tacho display strange

    Hello, maybe someone already had that or it is normal. With my V70 lights up when a door is opened, no matter which one, an arrow to the right about the height of the time. But this arrow only lights up when the car is standing, I tried it while driving, it doesn’t light up. Can someone explain that to me, in the operating instructions is nothing. Thank you. Greeting Heiko

  • Luggage compartment can no longer be opened (Wackelkontakt Elektronik?)

    Hi dear forum, the search function did not help me further, or delivered no comparable error. It is about the manual boot flap of my 2012er V60 (D3/D4). The car is open and unlocked, also the boot flap released via key position glove compartment. There is probably a wobble contact. When the boot opener is activated (the button at the license plate) I can clearly hear the micro switch, it sounds normal. But the electrically operated lock oss remains closed. Only with a little “knock” on the rear tear-off edge, the rear window or the area around the license plate opens the locker. At first quite reliable, now it needs more luck and knocks. I assume from a wobble contact due to a corroded plug. My first search for a plug in the roof sky of the rear boot area remained unsuccessful, there seems to be only one plug for the GPS antenna. My next attempt would be to remove the rear flap interior cover and look for corroded connectors there. New “pins” have already been ordered, hopefully they fit. Does any of you have a hot lead on where/how to track the error? LG and Thanks already for reading Florianinside

  • Emergency! Generator maintenance urgent! Everything dead.

    Friends of the Swedes bomber, I am standing here in Holland (Alkmaar) and have a big problem. On the way home to the accommodation the red lights of death and hint “generator maintenance urgently” went on. I then drove still about 5 to the accommodation, then also the servo etc. with corresponding warnings failed. Now the good truck (V70 3 D3/D4) stands in front of the door, electricity is basically completely dead, closed and mirrors opened in slow motion. yesterday and overnight I had a bike mount with flasher and brake light on the AHK. No plan if there is a connection, plugs I have pulled now anyway. Someone a clue what is going on? Probably unfortunately the LiMa, or maybe only a cracked V-belt? At least I look up tomorrow morning. Tomorrow noon we have to go to Bonn. Such a bullshit… Thank you very much for any help! Felix

  • Single engine dropouts and error ECM-P00BD00

    Hello, I drive a 2012 XC70 with D524417 2.4l diesel engine and Heico power increase. The mileage is almost 270’000 km. For two weeks the Volvo has been showing sporadically single engine oscillations, usually at low speeds. Last week suddenly a motor error message came and the engine went into emergency run. Engine out and a few minutes waited and then I could drive again without any problems. At home I had arrived the error ECM-P00BD00 in memory. Internet search I then found the indications for defective or loose hoses and in fact also with my a hose had slipped off. I then put it up again and secured it first with a hose clamp. The hose itself had no damage. Then the error deleted and everything was good. Three days later, however, went off with the dropouts again and also the error message came back this morning. But the hose is still on. an air mass knife cleaner ordered by Liqui Moly and will then clean the LMM. Does anyone have another suggestion? Thanks and greetings, Micha

  • Cardan shaft defective

    Hello together, on my Volvo XC 70 D5 automatic (Bj. 12/2010) bought only in March 2017 with 118 TKM at that time and 140 TKM now occur when the car is warm under load hearing and noticeable vibrations on the rear axle. When accelerating from about 100 km/h the effect is strongest. To the info – the car – I was assured – was never moved by the previous owner in the field (by me also not) and the trailer coupling, which I recently installed only for pulling a The diagnosis of the Volvo workshop: cardan shaft defective – replacement required! In terms of mileage and the really gentle handling, I have serious doubts whether this is true. The car is designed for considerably higher running performance and continuous load also with trailers. I would like to know which running performance you have with this car and in particular whether similar problems with the cardan shaft are known. Thank you very much for any feedback. Oh yes – the shaft should cost 1,350 EUR (without installation of course) and probably comes directly from Sweden…certain is not from the good old “Sweden-Steel”… Greetings VolvoS60D5

  • [XC60 Snow Chains] New insights?

    Hello, since the respective threads are already something, again the question, whether one of you already has experience with snow chains on the XC60 (FWD)? In particular the question, whether there are alternatives to the expensive Volvo chain? The PEWAG SMX 80 has been mentioned already, but has one of you tried it already? The place between tires and feather leg is actually not particularly large (finger thicker gap), but a narrow chain should still fit there!? I am Berliner and only occasionally in the S chnee (Austria), but with my old (VW Passat) often needed chains…
