  • xc 90 oil damage

    Engine burst at 18000km. Reason: the piston coolant was no longer working with a max. oil draught of 50%, which caused damage to condensing bearings and pistons. The oil draught lamp had not lit, although 4l oil had to be replenished. According to the dealer, the indication of the oil pressure has nothing to do with the amount of oil available. Is this really correct, or does not have to sink even with a significant oil loss the oil draught and thus the control lamp for oil pressure drop on The turbocharger was also destroyed. A parameter recall action took place too late. Wailing contact in the oil pressure control lamp.

  • Maintenance / Quality V70 2.4 Bi-fuel

    Hello, looking for a high-quality car (so far not very satisfied with Opel and Mazda) I have come across Volvo through the BMW Forum. Background is that I would like to have a LPG car that is affordable in maintenance (maintenance/inspection and repairs) and shines with a good workmanship. So far, for opt. reasons, I have not been able to really get along with a Volvo (especially the V70). But the advantage of Bi-Fuel technology is for me a What are your experiences / opinions about the 2.4 (103 KW) Bi-fuel vehicle?? What about the consumption??? Currently, a dealer nearby has a V70 2.4 Momentum as a Bi-fuel with 103KW and 18.300 KM for 24.900 on offer. Is this a good offer? The capacity for the PS number is quite large. Is this rather positive or negative? For tips and aids I am grateful!!

  • Conclusion of All-In contract for XC90

    Since yesterday I have been driving XC90 Sport (photos soon), here another technical question. The dealer offered me a full contract service (without tires), cost point approx. 75 EUR per month with a mileage of 80,000km and 48 months. Now my question: What are the workshop costs for the car? What do the inspection costs and what other repairs are to be expected at 80,000km? I am not sure if the conclusion is worth it, after all you pay 900.00 EUR p year.

  • e10 – real driving values available?

    Howdyho, I don’t want to open an e10 discussion thread here, of which there is probably enough in the net! However, I would like to know if anyone can pass real Volvo values here?Bsp: My 140hp vacuum cleaner probably needs just under 1.5 ltr on average more, and the top speed drops by 15kmh to poppy 190 points Well, and if I’m on the AB with lead foot, then the on-board computer doesn’t count only 18,4 ltr as usual, but ends up with almost 22litres! That would interest me! lem also, as our turbo fraction and possibly the R-drivers have already tested with it. Tightly into the round, the Tom

  • S60 T 5: Rucking in the low gears

    Hello, I have the following problem. I have been driving a Volvo S60 T5 built in 2001, manual transmission for about 3 months. And I have incredible problems in the first two gears with the dome and switching, which jerks and stutters like in the first driving hour, especially after starting. From the third gear it is then good. At the beginning when I had the car new, I thought mmh ok, new car and from Micra to T5 mmh you can have problems with the clutch at the beginning, the w But unfortunately it didn’t.. Yes, now you certainly can’t drive Volvo. Unfortunately, I only have the problems with my car; with our second car Volvo V70 200 hp + chip tuning, I don’t have the switch. Does anyone know if that can be any problem with the gearbox?? I’ve already searched the forum, but unfortunately I always find it only when I drive automatic. Would you be really grateful about your help, because I still have a guarantee on the car. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  • Timing belt change: Change belt tensioner for V-belts?

    Good evening Elk friends, with my V70 D5 the first ZR change is on. I want to have the V-belt changed immediately. Should the belt tensioner of the V-belt also be changed? Or is the money thrown out analogous to the frequently propagated water pump change? One hour reading relevant threads with the SuFu didn’t get me any further. Greeting, Ingbert

  • Child seat in V70? Isofix retrofittable?

    Hello, since I still keep my medium a little bit, I have to find a suitable child seat for him (group I, 9-18kg). Are there seats that fit particularly well into the V70II (my is from 12/2001)? Is even an Isofix retrofit possible?
