Good day, I would like to mount a trailer coupling on my V70. Now I have been researching here for some time, at rameder.de, at aukup.de, at Volvo, etc., but look less and less, especially because the information contradicts. Perhaps someone can clarify.Vehicle V70, 2,4D, 120kW, BJ 01/2006 no level control HSN 9101 TSN AAJArt of the coupling Removable to the rear results in a black brick at the rear. Or am I missing something? Detachable down seems optically best, but reduces the rear embankment angle, which is already critical for the loaded V70. Can anyone quantify the embankment angles for the different couplings?Electric set At this point it becomes really difficult for me. Rameder recommends vehicle-specific electric set with Summer as a turn signal failure control without software release from Volvo. Alternatively, a set for CAN bus is offered. the software release is required. Here in the forum it is reported that it could be done via the dashboard lights even without software release. Others say that everything is then possible except shut off the fog-finish lights and the return sensors. I don’t care about both. What’s right now? Is this perhaps dependent on the model year? Leting original parts installed directly at Volvo is honestly too expensive. You can rent a transporter every time cheaper. Greetings to Nippes

Dear community, the heating of my ’04 V70 D5 was still uncomplicated. When I wanted to start the reactor last week, the familiar “fuel heating AN” flashed in the cockpit. After two seconds, the computer revised its specification to “fuel heating OFF”. Is the battery too weak (unfortunately three times empty) or is it on the controller? Do you have any suggestions for me before I go to the friendly one? Greetings & thanks to Eucher china-taxi

Hello dear community, my S60 R has been losing cooling water lately. The cooling water tank has to be filled up from minimum, every 1000 km. This has been the second time today. I wanted to watch it for the first time. During parking I have seen today that in the area at the front left (from the driver’s seat), or if you are in front quite rightly so under the foglight form two small puddles. Leg glowing in with the flashlight I mean also trochente Wasserrinsel see Is there a hose running there? I would also prefer to go to a free workshop, you mean good idea or better the friendly with “R-price”? So about 2000 km driven. 2 x cooling water filled. Car drives normal, temperature normal, 41,000 km down, 4 years old and up to now waiting at Volvo. Thanks for your tips.

Moin Elchgemeinde My V70II D5 2004 163 HP had a timing belt tear at full drive, so engine scraped. I got a used (tump with head without attachments) in the bay and converted myself. (Bin just hobby screwdriver) After a test drive I found that the cart does not pull herring off the plate, makes less “turbo noises ??” and squirts really black off the back, and consumes about 3 l/100km. more. The BC however brings no error messages,the reader auc h not. I have attached all the attachments from the old engine, which ran until then perfectly. I have checked all pressure hoses, vacuum hoses, plug connections, injectors etc. for function and condition and am now at the end of my possible/skills. Maybe you still have some ideas about what this can be about. Greeting Harry819

Hello together, I had an undisturbed idle and had my Magneti Marelli throttle repaired at ecu.de. Then over the summer also calm and the throttle valve was unobtrusive. Now – at the cold temperatures – the speed fluctuations occur again. Since some parts were standing anyway, now already the spark plugs, the upper motor support and the air filter have changed. As a result the “clonk” noise at the load change has gone away and my consumption decreased by around 8%. The speed fluctuations are still there. If I uncouple at about 30 km/h and roll up to a traffic light, the speed drops to 500 revolutions and the car starts to shake, but does not go out. If I already dome at e.g. 50 km/h, the speed falls usually only to the desired 700. I telephoned with an employee of ecu.de, who made a quite competent impression. This of course excluded the throttle flap and said that it was event There is only the large fresh air hose in which I could not find a hole or a crack. However, right after the throttle flap there are 4 small hoses on my engine block (see picture). Can someone tell me what they are for? Some of them are porous at the ends, so the question is whether I can exchange them myself? I also read, d ass such speed fluctuations can lie on a clogged oil trap / crankcase ventilation, but so far it does not push out oil at any visible point. My oil consumption is about. 1 l/15,000 km. Then I have read that sometimes the air quantity meter is defective, but not immediately produced an entry in the error memory. Would my symptoms fit? I am grateful for every advice!

Hi! I hope there are some Volvo connoisseurs here who want to help me 🙂 I would like to buy a used station wagon and have now targeted a Volvo V70 alongside a Ford Mondeo or Opel Vectra Caravan. Unfortunately, I don’t know much about cars and Volvo only from hearsays that it should be durable, robust, safe and confortable. Of course, these are all the characteristics that I value. The car should, if possible, hold on to the 10 years. It must be a gasoline tanker because I drive a lot of short distance (work path 5km per track!) – but not only. Features like seat heating, cruise control, air conditioning, sliding roof … would be NICE-2-HAVE. As motorization would suffice me 140hp – I think the 200hp-bolde is too expensive in the insurance! Is there anything else in between? I prefer switches, because less consumption and a possible construction site less. I am looking in the north German area, postcode area 22926, 100km radius. Of course I would like one of the Hän dler buy for warranty and guarantee. But if a privately offered with comprehensible history and reasonable price is also no problem. My questions first of all: what should I pay attention to? I have an ad here and am interested in what you think of it:http://suche.mobile.de/…/189067345.html?… So much for the first time … nice greetings Robert 🙂

Hello Has anyone noticed that in the “sport” the tails are only flanged ? has someone ever had an offer from Heico given for exchange ?

Hello, someone already has experiences regarding the new Polestar upgrade for the XC 90? I would be very interested in how the plus of 20 hp is noticeable. In particular, it would be interesting to know how the top speed changes. What about the diesel consumption? I would be very happy about a quick answer.

Hello together, after I had constantly foggy windows in the interior in winter and then eventually discovered that it was because the footroom on the passenger side was quite wet, I dryed it and then everything remained dry. I had pushed it on wet shoes or snow at that time. A few weeks ago I was in the washing machine and when the interior was sucked out I found that the footroom was wet again. So again dried and good. e then before the washing machine visit extra check whether the footroom is dry. It was. After the passage it was then quite wet again. So it comes clearly from outside and has nothing to do with air conditioning or cooling water loss. On the one hand, the area at the side (i.e. door) under the glove compartment becomes wet, on the other hand the left part of the floor, exactly in the crease to the top. The rest remains dry. Can someone give me a hot tip what I can do? I guess It’s hard that any water drains are clogged. Only, where exactly do I find them and can I do it myself or rather have a workshop done? Incidentally, is an XC90 without a sunroof! Thank you!! Greeting Bergdoc

On Friday I was rewarded for my waiting and was able to receive my Dickelch: – XC90 summum with manual transmission – Outside: electric-silver-metallic – Inside: Sovereign soft leather, anthracite – Extras: Navi, telephone fixed installation. After the first 500km I am thrilled. Even though I had to get used to the “swinging” of the cab, which was clearly opposite the V70, I feel very comfortable now. The car is full on the road and in the curves despite the higher centrifugal forces better than the V70. The appearance and feel of the interior are great, the equipment has increased in quality (the predecessor was BJ2004). The new technical features such as the dynamic curve light and the MP3-capable sound system make life pleasant. Interfering at the moment only: a lower dynamic (was not to be expected otherwise due to the mass) and the strongly increased consumption of 10l instead of 7l, I hope that still optimizations are possible here. Conclusion: I am happy about the car and enjoy every kilometer! Follow pictures! Sven
