Hello guys, for some time now I have the Meldund SRS and DSTC maintenance required in my OBD stand. Since I was at the TÜV because I had to go the inspector has of course entered the airbag warning light as a serious lack in the TÜV report and also denied the badge. Does someone know how to bring the warning light to an end or where it could lie ????? Did have the error messages read out and then my workshop expert told me that he could use the Ai rbag history would not get deleted and the error according to error protocol would be “resistance high driver airbag”. I am grateful for any answer. LG Ingo

Dear elk friends, since my air conditioning system (despite new capacitor + filling) is not working, I was at the Bosch Service today to let the error memory be read out. My fear (climate compressor) fortunately did not come true, but with the diagnosis: air conditioning pressure sensor: signal implausible I can’t do anything. Do you have any idea what this might mean? Thank you very much in advance Pappnase1

Hello dear Moose community! One thing in advance: yes, I have already used the SuFu extensively, only to take the wind out of the sails to some. Since my old 5er is getting on my mind so slowly with his increasing zigzags, I already think about a successor. First a MB was the favorite, the E-Class S211 to be exactly too. But, after my brother put in his E-Class last year over 3T, I came to the XC90, because this was just as family-friendly and probably I already know because of the SuFu, it has to be an FL_model. Automatic is also mandatory for me. I would need your support with the engines, because I know Volvo only from hearsay. A D5 with 185hp would be my favorite. I’m sceptical about PDF, how it can cope with short distances. Since I already had three cars on LPG, a petrol engine would also be in question, if it can be easily retrofitted. Now to my questions: Automatic: How durable is the ese? With oil change and flushing I know, have already done it with my others. From which supplier comes the GT (or Volvo ivy) ? Is this more durable with the petrol engines? (at BMW it’s like this) D5: Topic injectors and turbo? Is there something to consider? Petrol: First I think of the 2.5T and 3.2. Does any of you run such a specimen on LPG? If so, there is something to report about burnt valves or problems with the adjustment of the system ? How much is the consumption? I am grateful to everyone who takes some time and helps me with his advice!

Hello dear Volvo municipality, I’m looking for a radio replacement for my 2006 XC90. Due to the double DIN solution not many options remain open. For example a Pioneer AVIC-F910BT for approx. 950EURO, or a Kenwood DNX9240BT for proud 1,200 EURO. Who of you already has experiences on this topic and would like to share it here? Thx

Salu zsamme Some time ago I set my beloved A4 Quattro 1.8T (132kw) against a tunnel entrance with LPG. Before that, I had loved a bit of “more space”…at first thought of an A6.. But somehow I didn’t have any more balls on these built-in boxes(motor room), constant problems with chassis(crossbars) etc…. Is just about the time for something new….other…! I’m just playing with the thought of letting out a V 70 or even an XC 70 myself…. Jed It has its advantages, its weaknesses…and I had hoped to launch a very reasonable controversial debate…. Would be really grateful about every mustard….. What speaks for the V70 What’s wrong with it? XC 70 is the what…are the spare parts much more expensive than for the V70? Which BJ should be avoided? Up to how much km can you buy a Volvo without any problems? What can a good Volvo cost….? Which engine is the most meaningful in terms of performance/consumption..80% Landstr. bz e Autobahn Schweiz – i.e. 120 km /h… bissl Stadt …..Rest Autobahn….CA. 15-20,000 KM /YAR… what are special models that it is worth looking at? Audi had almost full aust. ….. What are things you should absolutely pay attention to when buying it= Checkbook- Sure, but what else? Is there rust? Mechanics? Electronics….. who drives his Volvo on gas.? without problems??? or what is the diesel? Would be really happy… if something comes together here…… in this sense Frankie

On the other hand, Moin, have a short question. Does anyone know what is done during the various inspections or maintenances at the moose? Is there a brilliant lin somewhere in the omniscient Internet? Specific for the S80 T6, MJ 04. Have also read the forum all the time, but have not yet found any complaints about the model year, or has nobody written yet? Greetings, and already thanks in advance, Ulf PS: Does anyone know which route is the best in Germany? n the first week of September from Malaga to mother-in-law in Sweden (Värmland), and has to pick up my brother and family in Kassel on the way… I guess I’ll take the route from Stuttgart to Kiel, and across Denmark to Göteburg and then to the north… What time do long-distance drivers recommend?

Hello to each other, I still drive my v70 bifuel, year 2002 , 90 Tkm, and yesterday experienced a pleasant surprise. After 5 years of moose time I surprisingly found that there is a very enjoyable feature with my moose. I find the space-saving possibility of a check/fuel card in the glove compartment very practical, but that with pulled keys still the electric window lifter and also the sliding roof for a unique closure because let was new to me – nice thing! Maybe you can use my thread to announce your volvotypical ideas/players/discoveries. Have a good trip! scout 2

Hello, after a long time of thinking, I decided to give the Xc90 a few more Ps. After my Volvodealer’s tip, I decided to do a tuning with which the control unit was simply reprogrammed? Unfortunately, I have no idea how it worked exactly, but took less than 20min. After I was on the road with it over 2500km, I can say that the Xc90 is much better on the gas. That, I call it getting deep air b The speed limit was probably deleted at the same time as I did not drive the car yet. The highest was so far 190km/h speedometer, which was achieved with less “start” than before and one had the impression that there was still something to come. Most clearly one notices the extra power when accelerating out of construction sites. To the consumption I can say that the so far significantly decreased, would almost say that at the moment I consume 1l less. So far there have been no faults. Greetings Patrick

Good evening, dear members, after my little loyal companion is now sold, a new one, in the form of an S60, is to optionally also V70 with one of the above motorizations. I am more concerned about a technically – well, also optically largely – flawless vehicle, the body shape is secondary. First, it is to be an R (300 hp) or a T5 Facelift (260 hp) because I want to have only the 6-speed manual transmission! But there are still a few questions left: 1. Is one of the Is there a more stable engine? (R…thin cylinder walls?, thermal problems?) 2. Is an increase in performance – if necessary – even at more than 100,000km still to be represented? …to this end I already telephoned HEICO, where I was told that this would then be carefully examined before installation. Did the gentleman…not sound very competent to sell on bending and breaking. 3. Is the difference between the serial R and the higher performance of HEICO very clear? 4. Is a le Is there any difference between S60 and V70 in the performance and dynamics of the same engine? 6. How are your consumption values with the respective vehicles? I calculate 12l on average… I have previously driven three Volvos: – V40 I 2.0T (own car) – 850 T5 Autom. (sampling years ago) – V70R GeHEICOt with 338 HP (sampling) This vehicle wool I would like to take a look at:http://suchen.mobile.de/…/169639553.html?… Does anyone know the vehicle and can say something about it? Thank you very much in advance, for the – hopefully – great response!

Hello, has someone ever had a problem with oil leaks at the D5? Here’s a picture where you can see the spot. It seems to be below the oil filler. Near where the plastic valve goes into the block. Was also already in the workshop where my suspicion of valve cover seal was not confirmed. He had cleaned everything a little, and asked me to continue driving until there is something to see again. If someone knows this problem would be I’m grateful for tips.
