Among other things, the V70 2001/2002 had no mass cable from the battery to the engine compartment, but was only connected to the body with a short mass cable directly at the rear. Due to the significantly increased electromagnetic radiation in the passenger compartment (measurements took place in Sweden) a Swedish newspaper headlined: The rolling microwave. Whether dangerous or not, I accepted the Volvo offer at the time. (continuous additional cable to the engine compartment free of charge, installation (wage) charge. If someone looks up the battery of his new V70, there are still only these short mass cables (black) directly to the body.

Today it was time, I was finally allowed to visit an XC 90 sport live. In direct comparison between advertising announcements and subjectively shaped personal feeling there were ups and downs. The highs prevailed. So in detail: Alumatt mount of the side windows – simple elegance ++ roof beams with aluminium rail – very noble ++ revised inscription steering wheel – lies well in the hand ++ instrument panel in blue – pleasant color play ++ inserts in aluminium – sports version – (had one the sc hwarzen points on the beautifully smooth brushed aluminum omitted, then it would be TOP – I thought about removing these points together with the seller ) Sports seats Side stop +++ Sports seats Design – getting used to – but better than Premium 2004 + The 19 Zöller +++ (am actually no friend of big rims!!) The aluminium strip under the doors ++ (please don’t attach any stepping boards, that would be optically wrong) Aux In – at the height of the cup holder — (is probably a model Yahweh) r 2007 Frevel) Exhaust +- (for me completely unimportant) Conclusion: I remove the executive and summum version from my configurator…. I am not yet clear about the motorization (3.2 or V8)… Greetings Thomas …..give me a few minutes for the pictures

N ́abend, I just came across this ad in my daily search for a reasonable V70 Turbo:http://suchen.mobile.de/…/188886710.html?… The car is about 200km away from me, which is also the reason (too far away) that the “dealer” does not want to sell it to me. The reason was that he can exchange parts much cheaper if necessary and in the course of the warranty, than Volvo with me on site, and therefore only to people who live up to 80km in the vicinity, But now I could buy the V70 as a “supplementary parts dispenser” and thus release the dealer from the legal warranty. It’s not as if you were buying from private. Or how do you see it? Greetings from Rostock PS: He got TÜV new today. WR are also included. Automatic switches (allegedly) clean.

Hello together, I am enjoying buying my V70 new Xenon burner. D2R bulbs are original installed. Can you give me a few tips regarding the new bulbs. I have considered the Philips D2R Vision or Ultra Vision. Can you recommend them to me? Do you have product numbers of the listed burners? Where best to order? Or do you have a completely different company that can be bought? Regarding the change of lamps. Can you do this yourself? Is there any guidance on the various steps of installation? Thank you for your help. Greeting Sebastian

Moin, with my XC90 D5 163PS an increasing coolant loss spreads with warning message. In the last 4 years I have probably balanced 2-3 times about a quarter to half liter of coolant loss and it was quiet again. But now I had to pour 4-5 times over the last 3 weeks already and have introduced the last time also a cooler sealant, which however did not show the desired effect. The warning message in the BC is created by the donor in the balancing tank, if the coolant level goes below minimum (my wife therefore already had 2x panic high 3). To my knowledge the cooling system then picks coolant out of the balance tank, if the engine has a corresponding temperature, the cooling hoses expand and accordingly more liquid is needed in the system. – Right? This morning I drove 50 km and parked the car for 6.5 hours. When I left again, but after 1 km came again the warning message and the cooling unit After the slow opening of the lid, the coolant bubbered back into the balance tank and stood almost at maximum. But why didn’t the coolant run back into the balance tank again within the downtime? – Can that be defective in the balance tank? Pressure and liquid compensation would have to be done in the cold state after all? Are the coolant hoses to be renewed after 10 years? Or do I have a completely false Vo I would be very grateful for relevant information. With warm greetings from the North German lowland woolgraeser PS: Heating works without problems by the way. Only the left side in the interior is not always as warm as the right side in the heating operation at 22 degrees, it flows cooler air than on the right side (wasn’t there anything with the damper motors? Does not always occur, if I put left on ‘full gas’, it will be there auc h really warm).

My S60 has the normal sound system with 8 speakers, i.e. the simple widebands in the front and rear doors, high performance tweeters in the door (up to MJ2003 as standard) as well as the simple 2-way speakers in the hat rack, sh. also the attached pictures. Radio is the HU-603. I have retrofitted a Grom interface and operate it via the smartphone mostly via Aux-In. Then the original amplifier from Volvo (PA-200) was retrofitted and the speakers in the I also found the equalizer in the hidden radio menu and I already used it. Does it make sense to at least exchange the front door loudspeakers for the high performance? Or does it make more sense to install a normal two-way system at the front? Even the loudspeakers now installed don’t sound so bad and I almost doubt that for small money (~100 EUR) what can be done? or is there a particularly recommendable system? I’ve been out of the topic for a long time, I used to regularly read various car hifi magazines and also made comparatively complex installations. I’ve been looking at systems like Audio System M 165 Plus, Focal 165-A1, Focal IS165 or Rainbow Dream Line DL C6.2. Has someone already changed the speakers in the door in a comparable (speaker) output situation and can use his or her device. Is there any evidence that this is not the case?

Greetings from Australia – get my new XC90 D5 (185hp) delivered at the beginning of Jan. But I’m not interested in chip tuning. I’ve been looking for what’s there and then hit Heico – someone has some recommendations here .. Heico, or there are other Volvo tuners – here in Australia the Volvo market is too small – so thanks. Andre from Melbourne

Hello, finally after almost 4 months waiting time he is finally there, my new Dickelch. Equipment etc. see signature ! So it still worked for Christmas ! Still hints in own matter: To connect a Parrot FSE to the high performance sound system only a Kram adapter (BUS on ISO, approx. 15 Euro) is needed to have the playback over the speakers. Only with the Premium sound system a Kram-Mute-Box is needed ! With my moose I noticed that the Steering wheel when driving straight ahead is slightly inclined to the right, hope this can be easily fixed. Furthermore, in the front two headlights some moisture can be seen from the inside. Does anyone have experience with this ? Otherwise I thank you all for shortening my waiting time, your many tips, which have often been applied to me. I wish you Merry Christmas ! Greetings Haeken PS: Let me have some time with uploading the pictures !

Today was with the friendly and I saw my Dickelch for the first time. Should actually arrive only in the week on 19 December. Eletric Silver and Chestnut Brown softhide leather, looked just great. I have to make pressure that the car will be delivered next week. I also saw a sport for the first time in black with black discs, the sports leather is awesome. In total there are 3 sports for delivery all black unfortunately no red one with.
