Today was a registered letter from the VCG in the post office: Our V60 D5 (205 hp) EZ 15.11.2010 belongs to a “limited number of vehicles of the Volvo V60 series in which an early wear of the belt tensioner for auxiliary units can occur.” We should now immediately get in touch with that. Will call tomorrow… Well, I thought already after the last inspection (3 years/60,000) again for 1 year rest. In this maintenance, by the way, the belt tension was also r renewed according to maintenance plan. Currently it is km 65,000 without any problems. Does anyone know more about this action or has received a same letter? VG haptik

Moin Moin! I hope you can help me further?! I have a howling/jauling in the engine compartment since 2 TAGs. It comes from the front right in any case. It doesn’t get any better or worse when the engine is warm. When it accelerates it will take more and when the gas is taken away “turns it down slowly”! In the stand it is also quiet to hear. If you take the gear out during the ride it also becomes quieter. It accelerates even more super. Please tell me that it won’t cost me 1000€ and it’s just a stupid belt. or something… Maybe you can do something with the videos?!https://youtu.be/3iZKwH_d5fYhttps://youtu.be/CG05goByJrU Thank you and best regards-Ronny

Hello I’m looking for an XC 60 petrol engine, starting at 200 hp. 2010. What should you look for? And what kind of automatic was installed zb in 2010? Would you like a converter at all, or just a switch. Interesting are still the trailer loads that they have, unfortunately also found nothing right about it. Teeth straps or chain? And when to change? Thank you

My Swede had little water damage last year despite the maintenance of the screwdriver. The drain on the driver’s side was tight and thus the wiper motor with control shot up. So far so bad.. Was there a climate service anyway, because I had always had a slightly muffy smell before, when the climate was on for a while. (2-3 min). I guess there was water in the ventilation for the time but where? Now that was a while ago and I drove less often, I I was rarely disturbed but I wasn’t really happy. Now I took more time and checked whether the filter is already over or even wet. And what do I look like cancers in the passenger room and out/installation?=> Bone dry the part and from Oct 2019 Lt labeling … that’s not it. So I ask myself, where are the condensate drains.. if necessary, are they tight? (Because also forgot(?) to clean? Or is there still water or a mold in a hose? Massive flowed through n didn’t help so far. Does jmd have an idea where you could still look? (Think about taking the cover under the hood at the wipers and checking the hoses..)

According to VCG, only USB sticks with max. 8 GB are recommended for the V60. For larger ones, it may be that the data is not read or not read completely. I already read about such problems here. However, there are obviously also some users who use 64 GB sticks or even larger HDDs and have no problems with them. My question: has anyone found out by now whether it is due to the brand of the stick or a certain type that larger USBs work? Would you like to use a I don’t want to buy it to find out that it’s not running reliably. (I know it’s supposed to work with the ipod, but it’s quite expensive with 200 € – I’d get some 64 GB USB sticks for it – and one would be enough for me) 2. I read that all the titles are played in random order in the folders – namely in the arbitrary order in which Windows copies – very fun with live CDs or audiobooks 🙂 (and also ansons Some users reported about programs like Drive Sort that clean up the chaos. Can someone send me a link to download? – I only find English versions and I don’t know if I can get that. Thank you.

Hello, to the foreword: I’m new here as it is easy to see. I’m currently driving a Seat Leon, but I’d like to switch to Volvo. I found a Volvo S80ll now. Dates: 79000 Km. Equipment MOMENTUM To cost 13250€. The vehicle sounded good, which makes me skeptical now. The dealer wants to do now TÜV and inspection only unfortunately he goes on holiday from tomorrow. That means I should sign a purchase contract in advance and this morning p But if the car gets out of the holiday again on September 14th. Until then my right of recall has expired? What still seems funny to me, the workshop sent me pictures of the service booklet. The service booklet was made in Swedish and up to 57000 km were two inspections and all this in Swedish workshops. The workshop did not even enter the vehicle number, but only mileage, stamps and only at the second inspection. a date was entered. From 2014 a German Volvo car dealership made an inspection and also completed everything properly. In the vehicle letter two owners are registered, once the German car dealership and a private owner. The workshop where I buy the car has no plan. I am at the moment totally confused. On the one hand, it is a good car for little money. On the other hand, the vehicle history makes me skeptical. Can you give me advice? Thank you in advance.

Hi, I just came from the gas station. My Volvo V60 D3 has a residual range of 25km, then only “—” and a red line at the level indicator. I am still about 10km dangerous, so should be really very empty. I have refueled until the first shutdown, then 10sec waited, then again until the shutdown. The column then showed me 74,5l. That can never be right? Tank volume according to Volvo 67l.

Dear Elk friends, I ordered my first elk a few days ago: Volvo S60 D4 (190hp) and 8-speed automatic with the LINJE BUSINESS in Polar White with the REX 17 rims Inside: Aluminium insert SHIMMER GRAPHITE Leather steering wheel with silky matte intarsia Anthracite, roof sky: Quartz Grey Equipment packages LINJE BUSINESS Seat heating front help back he seat heating back (for the girls – had to be ) Unfortunately I still have to wait until the Somemr, because my current leasing contract still runs until then. The dealer has given very good discounts, as could or did not want to keep up with other manufacturers! I find unfortunately no test or something on fuel monitor, which can say something about the engine with 190Ps – everyone always speaks of the 181PS Best Greetings Matthes

Hello dear diesel competitors I’m looking for an alternative for the Volvo sealing ring 30713220https://www.wikingerparts.de/shop/volvo/volvo-dichtring-30713220 If any of you have one of these flying around, I’d be very grateful about the dimensions! Maybe you can even make a general thread out of this for completely overt small parts of this kind; this should be interesting for several people who are waiting for your thickness themselves to keep the costs low and/or out of fun at the Joy. It’s not only the 8€, which are called up for it at Volvo; you’re also looked at stupidly and told: “What do you want with it?”, “The gearbox is maintenance-free”, “You lose the warranty” etc., etc., etc., etc..

Hello guys, would like to upgrade to my XC70 MY16 a removable AHK. But, not the one to be mounted diagonally from the original Volvo accessories. Because this one needs a large ugly aperture to cover. I found at Westfalia an “AHK to be mounted downwards”. Dealer says, cut-out is in the field of view but no aperture necessary. Unfortunately, the dealer can not offer me pictures of a retrofit on a Volvo XC70. Now the question in the round, there is here XC70 with such a AHK retrofitted. If so, I would be happy about pictures. Because I don’t want an ugly hole at the rear. In my case, for example, it’s about this AHK: See picture Thanks to all
