My s80 d5 can only be started after one day of standing. Who you start after longer standing time turns the start you can also start for a long time but it doesn’t start. If you start a second time it starts immediately. What can that be??? The injectors have already been checked. Thanks

I already knew that my S60 was a grinder, but now it is accompanied by the sound I noticed the grinding noise 2 weeks ago, only in hard-driven right turns, now in general. And it always becomes louder. Sounds then partly like a hammering or knocking. It is speed-dependent, but independent of the engine and the brake. Had first assumed that there might be a nail in the tire… but nothing. someone had had that…??? become m take care of the workshop….this will be too hot for me…. Ciao, Eric, the left front wheel is already unscrewed today but nothing is found….

Three days ago, on the way to Hamburg with a speed of 190 “said” to me the BC that I will not make it. Since I had no desire for a tank stop, I reduced it to 140 kmh and it should be enough. At the village entrance still 20 km were available to me according to the message. The 5 km to my domestic tank I then drove on. 71.01 liters fit into the tank (+ filling nozzles) V70 D5

Hello I had a defect on the turbocharger in August. My Volvo dealer then repaired it (650€). Then the car ran normal. Until last week the same error came again. (motor maintenance required): I returned to the Volvo dealer. He meant the turbocharger is now completely over and must be replaced. (cost estimate 1460€). Oh yes the car runs quite normally also with turbo. the emergency run only starts from time to time. Mostly if I e.g. on the highway after a construction site After 2 km on the motorway in the emergency run the error goes away again and everything runs normal. In the city traffic the error never occurs. What do you think, must the dealer meet me? Between the maintenance and the upcoming exchange are 4 months and 5000 km respectively. Thank you for your advice in advance.

Today I rolled my moose to the gas station after 1032 kilometers and filled the tank again. After exactly 74 liters (how exactly is that) I finished the tank process. I could see the diesel already. If I am not too stupid to operate “calc” I experienced an average consumption of 7.1 liters. The BC showed me a bit more beautiful 6.6 liters. I used the auxiliary heating only 2 times in this tank filling (summer stop). Driving profile: 30% (fr) ie) Autobahn, Tacho 180 – 210 10% Stadtverkehr 60% Landstraße I have always switched into the next higher gear as early as possible and used the 5th gear at speed 50 in the city. Autobahn actually only in the 6th gear (except acceleration lanes). I did not have to switch down for a better acceleration.. On the road I rolled everything from 70km/h in the 6th gear. Greeting Marc – with 3 liters less than with the predecessor

Hello dear community, can you recommend me a “screw” of your trust in the Leverkusen-Wuppertal area? I have the 80th kilometer inspection. A free workshop informed me that about 325€ incl. oil, fuel filter, interior filter and brake fluid change will come to me. Is this possible also cheaper in good quality? Thank you for your help + dear greetings fraenklin

Hello guys, think about building a sports facility on my V70. I like optical and price-wise a TME system. Has already made with it someone experienced and if yes some. I found one at Jetex, but looks like TME and from the delivery time 4-6weeks it could also work. Would be nice to get a little resonance about this. Greeting

Hi together, just got a link by e-mail, on which some spy photos of a very heavily camouflaged Volvo can be seen. If it’s true, and it’s the new XC70, then the steep trunk disk calms me down very much 😉 But are they new photos? Or does someone even want to cheer me down PICS from previous models? Here the link: http://www.worldcarfans.com/…/spy-photos-volvo-xc70 Not secret greetings Torsten – the XC fan (and thinks you should go into the camouflage business once own – with the effort that they do … insanity 😉

A real flaw in the XC 90 seems to be the brakes. After the front brakes have been replaced with 18,000 at mileage on guarantee. I now have the same problem after about another 20,000 km: the discs are sliding and the brakes are rubbing. The workshop now puts itself across the lack again uncomplicated. In my opinion it is a clear material error, because the brake discs are simply too soft. The chrome part of the materi as is too low, the heat dissipation too bad. At any rate, this was nothing new to the master of the Volvo car house, especially since the V70 has to suffer from the same illness. my XC 90 is now 1.5 years old, knarzt and quitsch after 43,000 here and there, evruses with 8.6 liters on average quite little and makes great fun. Only I would not buy it after leasing alone because of the brake murks. What experiences do you have? Greetings big-j

I was able to take a look in a car picture with a customer today. (can also have been an older edition) There was a comparison test of the upper class!: E-Mercedes, Volvo S80, Skoda Superb and a lemon. Unfortunately could only look at it fleetingly, someone knows more? Greetings Torsten
