Hello together, maybe someone can tell me what the brake change in front disks and blocks costs at my XC 90. Have the big brake system in it and would like to have it done with the friendly. thank you Matthias

Hello forum, I’m going to open a new topic again, because I just want to finally have my V70 back on the road or if it’s uneconomical it will make it money. For the first time the facts so far: I bought the car as a hobbyist with engine damage. “No oil pressure to turn off engine” (in idle when cold, in warm condition only sporadically). I didn’t know myself with Volvo and the ventilation problem yet, so I thought oil change and is good, maybe still ne Engine flushing. Oil sludge/oil crust up if you took off the oil filler cover (see picture). Nothing of the oil change, had given it in workshop, which said after disassembly of the oil pan chips were in it, you would never get out again, engine must be new. MTVolvo from this forum meant maybe you can still save it, had they done many times, store shells and thoroughly clean up. That’s my dilemma now. So striving for a rescue and after an expensive diagnosis in the end still had to have new engine? If I don’t want to sink any money, I still have to make the domed warehouses (noise). That’s why I decided to open the engine as far as I can. If I can’t get any further, I’ll ask here. If I find something funny, I’ll put it here and hope for feedback. I’d like to look at the camshafts, possibly also the combustion chambers. Then I want to take off the oil pan and look at the storage shells and the crankshaft. All d The car has a new cylinder head gasket which I see from a part calculation. So it was definitely hot. I don’t know if it was properly installed. The engine doesn’t use water as far as I can judge it. It has a good power, the turbo doesn’t whistle or anything (but there’s some air in it somewhere). The car has a gas system from Prins (75PSI stands on such a component that I First of all I have now taken out the spark plugs. On the way there I have put out the large suction tube and the hose of the bottom (to the charge air cooler?) goes out. On two pictures of the hose. Is the such coking normal? What does this coking conclude? Liquid oil came completely a drop from the suction tube. Now to the spark plugs: the spark plugs all go out easily. The middle, however, sits so firmly that I can only release them laboriously. I look at them: Threads murks. So they have already sat in there I did not screw up the thread, someone has tortured it in there. What do you do in such a case? Besides, the shaft of this spark plug is darker than that of the other (see picture) and in the bottom, you see also, is such a black rubber shit, of which probably also parts have fallen into the combustion chamber. Can one say so far about the condition of the engine? I would now like to take off the VDD and the camshaft ancha uen. Can you relax this tensioner somehow and then simply remove the timing belt? Do I have to center the camshaft with the motor or can you just lift the VDD up here?

Hello, after eternal back and forth I decided today for a used V70 II (EZ 14.06.2005 and 68.000km). It is to be exact about a D5 with summum equipment , horny part has 163hp and a retrofitted DPF of the , the elk is black-metallic and has additional sliding roof , Geartronic , light leather and removable AHK , because I am a sailor (to which I come too rarely ) and is in possession of a small buck that one transports with a trailer i This is very practical and I don’t have to worry about it afterwards… Pictures will be delivered as soon as the car is in front of my door, the car has to get a service and TÜV/HU over it! Hope that I don’t have to be here often due to any defects I’m still quite excited and drink a glass of champagne with my girlfriend on the car now…, otherwise I’m more beer drinker, but I’m making an exception today So,so far from me. Gr uß, Thorsten

Hello together, today by registered letter received a letter from Volvo with the reference to an urgent exchange of the “too poorly designed ball joints of the track rods”. Supposedly “in rare cases” there may be a “restricted manoeuvrability”. This exchange has allegedly been classified by the KBA so urgently that a dive is to happen within 6 weeks. Did you also get such a letter? My XC90 has been approved in December 2005. ralli_d5

Hello Volvo friends Have again a problem with my thick… Splash water disc at the front no function… Pump I have already renewed… Relay also clicks on the lever. Electricity, however, does not arrive at the dual pump. At the back… So that means that the pump turns in one direction … Now I just need to know which relay is defective on the CEM…

V 70 – delayed level control Good morning, on the weekend I abused the new elk (V70 D5 BE) for the first time as a load donkey, when loading with 270 Kg sidewalk plates also went powerfully to the knees. Now the question: How fast does the level control address? Because on the 300 meters home something had not really happened yet. The predecessor, also V70 II got the butt up faster in my opinion. Thanks for the answers Tom

Hello people, Since parking aid sensors in the painted part of the bumper find ugly, I would like to mount the ones in the gray unpainted part on the lower edge. Now I wonder: why did others not do that. Then the sensors do not work? Greetings from Käskoppenland, Jan

Hello Volvisti !! After I have just looked at all the Volvo rim galleries (last posts), I have the following question ?? I have a V 70 140 HP with rims Metis 215er 16 inch Conti Premium Contact and wonder if my elk with Amalthea or Thor looks just as good as the horny T 5 etc. My concerns go there that I have the comfort suspension, so more space in the wheel box and also a level regulation, which I also think creates a little more space. So can it be that my V 70 with Thor or Amalthea looks really “shit” ?????? Greetings to All !
