Hello together, I would like to introduce myself briefly, have spent the last 10 years in the BMW camp and am currently looking for a faithful cargo donkey. Since I had a 2004 V70 D5 as a company car already years ago, and was absolutely happy with the car (OK, new car driven from 300km – 102000km), I would like to now another one. Of the shape I would like the V70 II, is most appealing for me. On Friday I visited one in the vicinity, but this one has me (Rost on rear bumper carrier, rust at front dome bearings, climate def, poor condition, maintenance jam). Therefore, my question, what must be realistically created for a well-kept model. Basic data: from BJ 2002 AHK climate leather seat heater KM up to 250 tkm Would like more equipment, but no Must Have. For information, am from Southern Bavaria, with us the selection is unfortunately very limited. Thanks to all experienced moose drivers.

Hello moose driver ! I just bought an S60 summum Built 10/2005 at the friendly. In the operating instructions it says that the doors should lock automatically from a speed of 7 km/h. With my car does nothing, the buttons do not go down. Do the doors have to close after opening with the remote control after 2 minutes, if the doors were not used ? Have got 2 keys with remote control, there must still be a main key?l Have e in the rockfall with a crack of approx. 5 cm in the windshield passenger side. Must then the disc be changed and the insurance covers the costs, have partial casket 150 self-deposit. Does the S60 have a comfort closure ? ( With my old Opel Zafira I can turn the key in the driver’s door to the left and thus close alle windows and the sliding roof? Greeting Harry

Hello rather a general topic, nevertheless: Who has experience with the Alu rim sealing as it is praised here? Is it worth it and the rims actually stay clean longer ? Merci for the as always fast and elk-competent answers

Thanks again to all who provided me with information about the moose.

Hello to the small CNG community! I have been asked how the 140 hp of the Bi-fuel is driving in mountainous areas. Since I only have experience from the middle mountains, they want to pass this on to the round at this point. (Compare with D-, T- or R-models please in other Freds! , 140 hp-petrols are allowed against it) I myself am quite happy to switch and turn over the 5,000 mark to Accelerate. My consumption does not increase by more than 8 ,2 kg/100km! – Do you switch the machine with a gas pedal at the end stop at the lower speeds? – At what speeds do you drive in normal operation? – Do you switch to petrol to overtake the mountain to get the last remaining torque from the engine? – What are your consumption values for mountain rides? Greetings, Stefan (always sprays all the washing water for weight reduction before mountain rides and extinguishes the light during the day to relieve the generator)

Hello, after the previous shutdown our XC90 was suddenly the battery empty yesterday morning. I was of course not there again (mission trip) and so I had to explain to my OHL first by telephone, that we are in the ADAC and I put a ADAC card into the wallet a long time ago (didn’t even notice it). Fortunately there is a phone number on it which she then called. ADAC came and found empty battery. Then she charged 10 min. with his. Then h at my OHL the car ran a little 30 min in the stand and then dared not to drive any more. After that she tried to start again, which also worked perfectly. This evening I came back and had to shop urgently, which my OHL did not dare for two days. XC90 jumped perfectly, even after the purchase. My question now: why is suddenly the battery empty with a new car? With Volvo everything goes off! Radio, lights off, SH was My OHL isn’t much of a help in the cause research either 🙁 Have you ever had such a thing before? Ciao, XC90newbie.

low-cost PDC sensors At prices around 90€ for a PDC sensor for v70 My2006 (30765108) I had little desire to repair my parking help so far. In addition, paint again and install. That’s why I’m now testing an offer from eBay for 32€ inclusive shipping. The offer can be found if you are looking for “Parking Sensor Volvo” and article location “Europe” – which prevents customs costs. The handling takes place via Paypal. The special thing: It is allegedly the original of Valeo OEM. The seller probably sits in England while the item is being shipped from Riga. Particularly comfortable is the offer to have the sensors painted in any original color for 10 British pounds = 12€.

Hello, our new “used” XC90 has arrived and enjoys a feeling like it’s hard to describe, yet typical of Volvo: you sit in a (car) castle and feel really good. It’s a car from 2010, D5, 60,000 Km on the clock, edition model, sapphire black. On accessories are trunk mat(s), basic carrier for the railing and WR. The turning circle is somewhat used, especially in the deep gait. Rage already needs some shunting work, but it’s just a matter of getting used to. Now I’m looking forward to a nice exchange of experiences. Greetings Robert

It’s time again: For the time being, the diesel fuel filter is frozen so that the car doesn’t start. Does anyone have an idea how to prevent it? Let off the condensation water from time to time? How do you do that? As I have read, it’s probably not that easy to expand the filter without the right tool. Does it bring something to thaw the part (of course not with possibly open flame…) Thank you for helpful answers! Best regards! Odilo

Hello I’m looking for a diagnosis and service and resetr hand scanner for our Volvo. I know this here in the forum already a few requests stand for it, but the posts are all a bit older. Who can give me some tips here? Look forward to the answers
