I made a quick shot in Ebay and bought a HU-613. Thought about 45 euros is that fully OK. But I found out now that the part might not work with us radio reception technology – or can it “only” no RDS and traffic radio? Found something under radio table, but also not quite clever from it! Someone idea or an idea? Thanks – Peter

Drive my V70/D5 since 7500km – so far everything in the lot 🙂 I noticed that in my garage after parking backwards it always smells like in the swimming pool. Does this have something to do with the diesel cat??? the petrolers smell rather like lazy eggs {

Hello together, next week I will order my first moose and need a decision support for the choice of the right seats: I swung between the comfort seats (fabric), comfort seats (leather) or sports seats (partial leather). What would you recommend me with my size (193 cm), my weight (85 Kg) and at 35,000 Km/anno? My driving style is normal and not particularly sporty, I prefer to get in/out and sit comfortably. It pain in the lumbar and neck area. What are the differences between the different seats (side support, padding, hardness, sitting position, seat, adjustment options, on/off, summer/winter, support in the lumbar area, care, ….)? Thank you very much for your support Dieter

Hello! I have a few questions and hope that one of you can help me. 1. I have a button in the center console to deactivate my security lock (see appendix), but nothing happens if I press it, it doesn’t light anything either I’m not sure if I have an alarm system at all. How can I find out? Normally, when I lock a little blink at the front of the console, right? Does everyone from the house have this button? 2. When I open my driver’s door, it’s funny, I’ve tried to grease the connecting piece between the door and the A-pillar, but I think I get the snoring from the inside of the door, the part where the connecting piece goes in. Does anyone have an idea how to get that away? In addition, the door door door also creaks, also only on the driver’s side, what can you do about it? 3. My door handles hook pretty much, I think I also have to grease them somehow, must I remove the door panel to get there and if, how does it work without breaking something? 4. Ashtray compartment/dose holder in the center console: This opens on pressure, is it normal that this one snaps up or should the lid “soft” open? Many thanks already to everyone!!!! I hope you can help me!

Hello to everyone, I have the following problem with my Volvo V70 D5, 120 Kw, 180TKm, stop gear M56, Bj,2003, in cold condition one hears klappern from the transmission area. In warm condition the noises are gone. Car drives quite normal, while driving one hears nothing, even no vibrations or similar. If one taps fast on the accelerator pedal in cold condition and only slightly increases threshold, then the noises come. I have to say that I have changed the transmission oil (Castrol Syntrans Multivehicle 75W-90). It seems to me that the sounds have occurred after oil changes have occurred! I also changed the engine oil at the same time (Castrol EDGE 0W40). Before that I had 5W30 Castrol EDGE in it. Something is wrong, either it is related to the oil or to any bearings!???? What do you think, has someone had the same experience? Ask for your help!! Thank you in advance

Hello together, I have the following problem: If I start in the morning (1-2 degrees) with a heater, then the pointer is in the middle after 15km. Without a heater it is only after 20km of highway & highway. I think this is normal. So now it comes. After 30km I drive down from the highway and into the city (kaum Stop & Go, rather only roll in the 3rd and 4th gear) then the temperature drops by 1 – 1.5 strokes. So I still had something with other vehicles Never. So the vehicle, which the engine is not yet warm and I have to be careful with the accelerator pedal. And that can’t be after 30km and 1-3 degrees outside temperature. Is that also so with you? Can it be that the thermostat is slowly saying goodbye? Car: V70 2.4d 163hp, BJ2007, 120.000km. Thanks already for the answers! Greeting Razzorpl

Hello forum members! My S60 model year 01 (used 2004) consumes ÖL for the power steering. The first time I was quite frightened by the noises that the car gave off with too little servo oil (especially in curves) and drove to the workshop. There you quickly recognized the problem, filled about 0.25l of oil and that was it (winter 2004). A visual test did not reveal any leaks in servo pump or system. Now the noises have started again (about 10 Monas) This is not a problem in itself, as long as this “consumption” does not increase. Has anyone ever had this phenomenon themselves or can they make a rhyme with it?

Hello I have a volvo s60 d5 Bj.2003 163 ps My standing heater has always worked well until it at once with the timer has not worked anymore I have read out error and it was in it (overheating protection signal too high .) then I have tested all components like water pump, burner blower,k pump,glow candle,burner self and cleaned.I have bought with my friendly a new heat protection and the same problem still. Then I am d came up that in my interior a loud water to roll around is when the standing heating is run one to two minutes without engine. I initially thought air in the cooling circuit also to ventilate brobed but there was no air inside. I got it the standing heating is getting so hot that the water starts to cook. The water pump of the standing heating works but. The funny is the standing heating works when the engine runs. My volvo dealer means that the outsider Emperatursensor is broken but inside the interior the display works hair exactly . And in the Vida it shows me an outside temperature sensor -126 degrees Celsius measures Is there a second temperature sensor for the motor management ? Please penetrate around HELP !!!!!!!

Hello Volvofreunde War before yesterday on the highway about 120 km/h after about 7 km. I noticed a slight jerking, shortly afterwards came an error message that the engine power was reduced. Drive to the parking lot to check (nothing sees Marder etz.) New started and he ran again. Yesterday the same game to Ikea Ulm about 56 km, after 13 km the same message, off, and he ran to the finish without any problems. Car fully loaded and in the afternoon back, so now he stayed every 5 km on d He was standing in the pouring rain, then I returned from time to time, error was gone again. Only a slight restless jerk could be felt. Error messages were then given also several, once the power reduction, then motor system maintenance perform, and the engine block on the display was displayed. This morning times all plug contacts checked and made a test drive, performance guesses times as always, the consumption also, ( drive I always got it between 7,3 – 8,5 liters ) It is a n V70 II Bj 2000 Mod. 2001, 2,4 t, with 200 hp, Km stood now 147 tsd. My biggest worry is our Volvo dealer who takes to read 110 € and wanted to actually have 140 € for working time to change the fan engine. I made 2 clamps for the turbo intake hose were 2 screws on top of the fan and then he is only pulled out, said and written 10 minutes for the layman. Who can give me a tip which workshop could make me that room Ulm Kempten. I don’t say who I mean now. And where you could start with the error – search. Found already an entry with the same symptom but didn’t find the reason for it. Greetings and thank you in advance
