…if, then he would be slowly full lately my XC90D5 is rusting when starting or entering the gas (diesel) pedal on the highway. He didn’t do that before, or only when starting with a cold engine What do I have to reckon with in the near future? Say goodbye to the injectors?

I have been driving a new V70 since 2.06. Before that I had the same model. Since 2004 the RTI system has been crashing again and again. I have discussed this with my Volvo repair shop more often. Since I am very dissatisfied, I wanted to change my car. Despite multiple emails to Volvo Germany and a visit to Mr. Storchmeier nothing happened. I conducted the last conversation with Mr. Althoff who assured me that this is on a cable and the power supply is exhausted. Also this turned out to be not true. For 1.5 years my Volvo workshop and I , this is due to the software and especially to the TMC. This is also how Mr. Althoff confirmed to me. Thanks to Volvo for 1.5 years of stress in which I drove 90000km. In the 48 KW comes a new DVD to the market, which I should get to fix the problems. Hopefully! I can only advise anyone to get this DVD on warranty claims, since the old versions (from 2004) can show me this behavior of the RTI.

Hello ! I sent an e-mail to MR Schweden Sport last week, wanted to have some data and prices for the PPC tuning on the D 5 ( 163 HP). Yesterday then the answer : “Thank you for your email and your interest in our tuning program. We would like to send you the desired information. By PPC tuning we can tune the performance of your XC70 either on 197PS/470Nm or 220PS/479Nm. Your price per package incl. sport air filter is 1,350,- Euro respectively 1,450,- Euro incl. VAT.” why do they give such a high torque to ?? and then also 220 HP ?? At FirtsClass in Lübeck are called “only” 197 hp and 400 Nm !!! has someone already received this from MR ?? I myself ordered the PPC yesterday at FirstClass, should be there next week. Let’s see if it has been worth it 🙂 Cheüß Andre

Hello Does anyone know the current prices in Ö for unlocking? A friend told me that this would be 500-600€ Can that be true. In the new price catalog of 2008 it stood with 590€

My moose has recently been making such funny squeaking noises while driving. Quitting comes from the interior, from the area between the steering wheel and the disguise behind it. It sounds like rubber would “rub” each other. However, it is not always. Quitting occurs, if at all, only in case of a larger steering impact, e.g. parking, etc… I have already tried to become master by height and longitudinal adjustment of the thing. But it did not help anything. Is there a possibility by “lubricating” to fix the thing quickly and easily. And if so, how would you deal with the “problem”?

Hi guys! How reliable are the 5-cylinder 2.4s? I’m thinking if I’d want to have one like that.

Hello, I would like to buy a Volvo V70. By the way, 2001 2.4T automatic. During the test drive, I noticed a little bit of braking. In my 12-year-old BMW, nothing vibrates when braking, so I was eroded and actually of the opinion that the brakes would make me clean to sell the car. Is there nothing in my eyes to sell a used car with proper brakes. Today morning the workshop master calls me and tells me that the brakes still hold 60tkm and that a vibration would be normal. I would have liked to have hung up but I actually want to have the car – but not to change the brakes in 3 months… I am with him so that he tells me of all the disks and bolts the actual dimensions of the thickness as well as the new values and the wear limits and also measured on the car. In order to be able to say that I have a long time to believe this.

Hello, I was flashed out of town today….I think at least…! Can a flash measure two-lane? I was on the two-lane lane on the left lane. On the right side of me (half a vehicle length in front of me) a smaller truck drove. So I was about to pass it. I see the red flash of a mounted camera just before the truck on the right edge of the road. Did they mean me, or the truck? 70. I had so close to 100 on it and the smaller truck so 85 would I say. That would be 1-3 points and good 100 euros for me…! Flashes these things over 2 lanes? I was almost in the half shadow of the truck!

Hi people! And I want to know from you what you consume with your V70 with 170hp and switching. In pure city traffic of course. My Schwegerin is now driving for almost 3k km with 9.8l. Since this is however in the V50 forum a little “pragitive”, because the V50 1.8 with 125hp is already indicated with 9,xxl and that the heavier V70 can not underbid, I want to know your experiences. Can soon also attach a picture. mfg chris
