Hello municipality, my new one has now 1450 km on the clock and the fuel consumption is 9.1 L/100km (with restrained driving) according to BC. A friend has the same car and about 4000 km and a consumption of 7.1 L/100km according to BC. What are your experiences? thank you

Hello, which car would be a real alternative for you to your moose???? I notice that the same brands are always mentioned when it comes to alternatives: Lexus Subaru Audi BMW For me (and my wallet) flying vehicles come into question: Subaru B9 with gas Lexus RX400h (possibly with gas) Audi A6 Avant 3.0 TDI BMW 530d or X5 3.0d (X5 probably too expensive) How do you look???? Greeting Michael

Hello together, for some time always came a flap from the B-pillar on the driver’s side. So then I drove to my to have the problem solved. He then explained to me that the noise from the belt strap / restraint system stood, and that was from the part, which tightens the belt when the overlay, so that one does not “fall out”. He then did something. The flap was gone, but the strap was always annoying, because one must pull out the belt always seaehhrr carefully And even then, he kept on acting. I was told that you had to replace the restraint system completely and that this cost 400€. In recent times, the flapping has become louder and louder. So today, I took off the disguise and wanted to spray some sticky oil into the chamber, like several times before, so that the flapping stops. At the same time, the lid is broken off. That’s totally messed up! The normal restraint function with a “normal” C At least the system blocks the belt as soon as I pull the belt back. I should try not to produce an overlay. Now my questions: Can you buy the belt strap in the accessories and then also install it myself. There are two screws to loosen and pull the plug out, right? Or does the airbag trigger? And where can I get such a restraint system? Somehow I can’t understand that because of such a “pfennig part” there s Restraint system must be completely replaced!

Good evening! I’m new here in this sector and will therefore get on your nerves more often, because with us is soon a V70 with on the yard. But more about that, if he is definitely there… The V70 will not have an AHK and since I need one quickly, I make myself right in advance already, have seen and read a lot here in the forum. It should be a removable AHK and then the questions start already already… The Westfalia hang down quite deeply, as I see here in photos hab. From horizontally inserted like Thule is partly advised, because they should probably be torn down?! And there are still several other manufacturers… Above all I would be interested in photos that look like the cut-out and like with mounted ball head. You never see that in the catalogs. As I said, from Westfalia I have seen this already, not from other manufacturers. Would be great if someone could post more photos there… Thank you!

Good morning together, have a Wiechers Domstrebe installed on my V70 II D5 because the steering behaviour was simply too comfortable for me. I installed the standard Volvo “Comfort” suspension. Here is a small report on my part: – Installation – Original Pseudo Domstrebe / Motorhalterung remove and convert to correct Domstrebe = working time 25 minutes. Can anyone hold one socket wrench – Effects – The Domstrebe has two effects. First it connects the two domes The second effect is that the motor’s play is reduced to a minimum. I haven’t installed new engine bearings yet – but surely still comes. – Driving behaviour – I was really surprised that the driving behaviour changed so significantly. The strut brings the necessary stiffness into the complete stem. The steering is noticeably more direct and agile. In the cornering behavior much faster “gripping” of the wheels. – Clutch behavior – Here the biggest change is noticeable. The gears flood softly pure. No more jerking, as the engine block is fixed. The power is available much faster, which leads subjectively to more sense of torque. – Engine noise – The car becomes much louder. With the standard engine mount hardly any noises came into the interior. Now these are clearly audible. The car roars like a real moose Me does not bother – on the contrary. I love the 5 cylinder sound. I’ve got about 0.5 seconds of a plastic-sounding rhinestones from the lower engine range. I have to go over that again. Someone’s a tip what that could be? Gruss Tobi

Hello everybody, I have a question about my automatic climate control. In the morning I always have about 10 min through the city traffic (stop’n’go) before I come on the highway. Now is the season, where my moose always annoys me and opens the air jets at chest height first on the highway. Now I wanted to ask if this is a bug or a feature?! So in the cool-humid season it regulates more air on the front window or is a flap old and jammed and opens first with more wind? With an image of my default setting and actually I also want that I don’t have to turn around constantly (except for the seat or AC on/off). But if the moose is annoying me again, I always have to manually select the nozzles so that I don’t get suffocation attacks. If this is an ever-free sight-through-the-windshield feature, then my question is whether I or the one that can set it up, that it only takes a short time and then switches to normal operation. Good driving all the time.

Hello community, my elk was recently in the workshop for annual inspection (Pickerl)… Didn’t get the pickerl yet :/ Must change front both transverse handlebars + 2 rear bearings! Now my question to you….what’s the name of this bearing (see appendix) – transverse handlebar bearing back ? Can someone give me a link (Skandix). Thank you in advance!

Hey! I’m currently talking about a V70 II which, according to the (official) dealer, ran almost 70000 km. He voluntarily makes the coupling rods new in the course of the inspection that is due now. There you can have nothing, but I find it quite early. Is that somehow realistic? Sure, sometime sooner, sometimes later, nevertheless I thought about 170000 km for crossbars and coupling rods. Otherwise, tips for other (safe) signs? Here I miss the comparison values. Thank you, and a nice weekend k

Hello at my Volvo came the yellow control light, when I had this read out was the apparent defective the P1332, in the workshop it was said, can be the camshaft adjuster or not, which was looked at, but seems to be good, the message was deleted and after a few days came back the control light…. someone already had the experience, someone knows about it by chance! would like to know it without having to drive straight to the Volvo dealer g Rice

Hello moose drivers! I have been mostly readers so far, but today I could use the concentrated know-how of the forum members usefully. After now 7.5 years the battery of our V70 has said goodbye today, the first well noticed, after more than 130 tkm a heavy performance of the original equipment supplier. Unfortunately it met my wife. She first called the, which showed little helpful (M. in Bremen Horn, distance 3 kilometers). She should call the ADAC. Said, get The yellow helper was also rather in weekend mood, starting aid and reference to . No testing of the alternator power or anything else . So my wife drives to , gets a new Volvo battery installed , and realizes that the panel in the center console does not work . Answer of : “there must probably be a new board inside . Come back once next week , which we order then . ” Woman frustrated , I get the concentrated L My conclusion: from the replacement of a battery a board should not get broken Ran to the computer, SuFu tries, and soon found the reference to the canbus reset, which he certainly did not carry out. So battery again disconnected, waited 10 minutes, ignition key in position II, battery again connected, and see there, the moose is back full. Moose lives, woman is happy, the weekend is saved, and probably we have at least 500 Euronen saved! Special thanks to Esker! Greetings Ve_sjuttio
