  • Upgrade V70 to autogas?

    Hello together, we think about converting our V70 (2.4, 134 hp) bj 06/00 to autogas. does that make sense at 150,000 km and about 20,000 km of driving power in the year? which system is recommended at the petroler? or rather earthgas? does someone know a good retrofitter in berlin or environment? thank you gaston

  • Buttons/switches for the SH in the V70

    Greetings. In short, I will introduce myself as soon as I have picked up the moose Saturday, but until then be allowed to plan please One of the things I want to change is the installation of a seat heater. Currently I am thinking about whether I should take an original Volvo, or the alternate for installation under the lining of Waeco … or just the edition variant of ATU. Be it like I would like to work with the original buttons to use the SH. Since Kruathahn from Berlin at the moment probably I don’t want to answer, no matter if it’s about buttons or heaters, I would like to ask you here in the round. In the photo you see exactly where the blind plug is currently sitting and actually the SH operator has to come in. Question: Where do I get the two switches, and do you think they are adapt without stress to the Waeco solution (e.g.) ? Greeting in the round the Tom

  • Which v70?

    hello, need your help…I am wearing the idea (already a whole time) to get me a v70 automatic (from 2001). drive daily about 200 km (so almost without exception long distance) to work. what can you advise me, which engine (no diesel!) is under this point of view the most economical in consumption and what does it look like with the maintenance?, since I now also drive lpg, then of course again have to be upgraded. what should you pay attention to in general with the v70? …yes, it has to be a v70 his . thanks and greetings, heiko

  • Germany allergy of my elk or may it be.

    I should have known it. My Dickelch can’t handle German patriotic approaches. I wanted to decorate him this morning with a German clamp flag, so to speak. Knacks said there the Volvo disc, about after 50 m drive. Germany allergy of the elk or lack of quality? And if this had happened with the blue-yellow flag too? Monday goes to the there the crack continues to wander. the doxc a little sneezed about the quality – is at least laminated glass. And the clamp only Ku nststoff PS: to the MT experts: how do you sell this to the insurance company?

  • XC 90 – no radio and no RTI

    Moin together, today is my XC90 in the workshop. Yesterday it started with absolutely bad radio reception – ok, I thought, E.T. plays again on the frequency band, that regulates itself by itself. Usually I leave radio and RTI always on. This morning I get into my preheated (the wiping water tank has not burst by the way) XC 90 and everything is quiet. No whirring from the RTI screen when he goes out and no sound. Knöppscher brought nix. So on the way to work at the front Vida says antenna module is to hell – fits to yesterday. Now a piece of work has to be done. I will report. saluti Torsten

  • S60R no longer takes gas from 150km range on the AB??

    Hello guys, First of all, the search function has already tried, but unfortunately not really found an answer. The following problem, which has been repeated three times with my S60R. Autobahnfahrt mit Tempomat auf ca.150Km/h, range according to BC 150-200km, with the tank indicator does not yet light up the reserve. Activation of the gas pedal, no gas acceptance, a gear switched down also nix, at the breakdown strip rolled out, engine runs. put BC shows 130km range, the reserve lamp still doesn’t glow. According to refuelled quantity must still have been about 10l in the tank. After full refueling everything again OK. As far as I know, the R has a demand-controlled petrol pump and a feed pump, which need a certain min. quantity to work properly? Or is that just Volvo like.

  • Zirpen passenger door covering from approx. 120km/h.

    With my S80 the passenger door starts to chirp from about 120 – 130km/h. Sounds like there is a small “airflow” somewhere. Depending on the speed it gets stronger or less and in windy weather it is also stronger. Have the disguise already had off, but could not find anything. Are there any places where the air could come through or any other possibilities?

  • When is a V70 Diesel worth it? What is a short distance ??

    Hello, which at www.amortisationsrechner.de is indicated that in future a diesel would be worthwhile with me. I had thought about a V70 2.4 T with 200 hp or a diesel with 163 hp. The computer shows clearly diesel. Also no LPG. ( LPG I have at the moment in my 850er). I drive 14,000 km/year. Of which partly short distance of 1-4 km and every day 13 km back to work and 13 km over the Landstr.. Can a diesel bear this? Or is this all a short distance and the D Is it crazy and sitting down and giving up his mind? As I said: the computer clearly says diesel in comparison between 2.4T and the 163-hp diesel. But what does the diesel technology say about it? Does it hold out? Thank you!

  • It’s supposed to be a moose, but can I trust it?

    Since I have now got my second generation, I have sold my A4 and have been looking for a decent station wagon for some time now. Since some Volvo are driving in my family, I would like to join in. Now the question. Does this offer seem serious to you? Bzw what do you think about it. I think this V70 is a snapper. I would like to have an LPG system installed, if it should be, there are problems with it? I think with Rost o.ä. he should not be I’m going to find out more about various weaknesses. Is there perhaps a child’s disease with the V70? At the A4 it was the crossbars, what about the one? Naje short speech long meaning, I would like to thank you in advance for your answers MfG Bierhttp://suchen.mobile.de/…/showDetails.html?… have a 2nd on offerhttp://suchen.mobile.de/…/showDetails.html?…
