  • XC90 rolls even though gear is inserted

    Hello XC-90 municipality, I park my XC90 backwards on my yard. To turn off I always insert the first gear and switch off the engine. The parking brake is not operated. The car is standing with very slight gradient. Yesterday I noticed how my XC90 rolled down almost a meter. I could even push it from behind. The whole thing happened a few months ago. What’s going on with my XC90 ?

  • Summum or R Design ???

    I’ll order an XC 90 for the next few days. In terms of equipment, color, etc., I know in principle what I want. All specifications can meet the summum and the R design. Come to both at a similar price, or leasing rate. What do you think speaks for one or the other? Thank you for every hint

  • S60 T5 Experiences

    Hello dear Volvo municipality. Currently I drive Golf 4 and want to get an S60 T5 next spring. Now I wanted to ask if there could be problems with the car or if it is reliable, how much it consumes and how fast it drives.

  • Legroom XC90 5/7 seater …and 3.2 engine

    Hello, in the price list for the XC90, a smaller legroom is given for the 7 seater at the rear than for the 5-seater. Is this because the 2nd row has to be pushed forward, so that there is enough space in the 3rd row? Or otherwise asked, if the 7 seater is only used as a 5-seater, is the legroom smaller by the 3rd row folded forward than for the pure 5-seater? That’s what I failed to clarify when I did a test ride with a 3.2 momentum today (g Is it just 1 year old very inexpensive as “service car”=rental car, so from 30,000.- to 34.000.-). He should replace the current V40 2.0T CLE wg. place etc. But not with this engine, from which everyone who knows the great Volvo Softturbos will turn away with horrors. Ok, you get somewhere, mostly so quiet, but until you have reached the desired speed, that does not make any joy. I don’t know with the V40 more than 2* annually over in the 3.2 unpleasantly noisy 5,000 U/m Is not comparable wg. weight, engine concept etc, but with an otherwise all-round superior car like the XC90 I completely lacked this sovereignty with the engine. The ratio practically usable power/consumption is somehow not so good…;-) It will then probably run out of the V8 with LPG, with which I last year at about gllei In addition, we have used up 1/2 l to BC less. Because you can easily make good progress without full throttle or softturbo, with a nice sound.

  • coupling xc90 2,5t

    Hello since november I have now and then the problem that the coupling slips through during the strong acceleration. (xc90 2.5 t 6-speed switch 60.000km) anyway I always had the impression that the coupling is very “partial” without exact pressure point. the coupling was actually only taken one time properly when I had 2.5 tons on the hook and had to drive backwards my court entrance. to such rides I usually take our jeep grand cherokee, but that was just under egs. after driving up (with grinding clutch) you smelled the clutch a little. however, I have never had such problems with other vehicles with the clutch if I had a heavy trailer on it. can you “replace” the clutch or did I offend it irreparably? is the clutch in xc90 generally very poorly designed? gruss daniel

  • XC90 or Q7 or more Landy

    Good morning, all a good new year! I’m new here in the forum, but I’ve read more about it, and naturally only confirm that the Volvo driving are at the most pleasant. (slim) I’ve been living in Germany for a few years, come originally from Norway and am an enthusiastic Volvo XC90 driver. Probably it’s an old boring topic again, but I still want to ask you a bit of expertise. I’m going to leave the company and work as a freelancer and therefore must with 3 children of which 2 in child seat, the selection is quite narrow: XC90 favorite, still, unfortunately a little bit aged in the middle. Q7 Not quite sure, I find a little bit of “La Matina” “Dear a thick car as a beautiful house” Auto Discovery, not bad at all, super chassis, panorama roof, engine maybe a little lame, however from early years also with new Jag Diesel (220hp) and LED backlights. X5, not yet from the inside. Seen, the 2 seats in the back dive what? Would someone of you order an XC90 again, or rather order something ‘newer’. I find the color Ember Black quite cute, does anyone of this ‘live’ pictures? Rather Chesnut Braun or Inscription Toscana again, whereby I also liked Inscription Calcit Cream with Sandstone/Espresso interior very well (but with 3 children?) This time I would, if I ordered, sometimes order Rear Seat Entertainment, has someone here experienced? D5 or 3.2 ? With fuel card, I don’t care about fuel prices, V8 is out of the question.

  • Clear position lamps V70 D5 II front

    Hello, there is for the V70 II model year 2005 for the orange (are integrated in the headlight front) a set that are transparent, i.e., that can be operated with an orange pear. If yes, you have to change the whole headlight, or can you make there? 😉 I find the orange glasses so something of “old cheeks”. Would I be very pleased about your answers. Greeting Pat
