    Today in the meanwhile at least calendar spring I got really angry about the thickness for the first time. I drove my little daughter as always to the elementary school, on the roof about 2 cm high sulty wet snow, on the passenger seat new sign block for the school and not quite unimportant documents for the office. When my daughter wanted to take her sign block from the passenger seat, a larger place of the clenched snow dissolved and fell in the middle of sign block and documents. The door cut-out is obviously so shaped that the snow had to fall first on the backrest and from there on the seat! When I then got out to save what was no longer to be saved (I now know how corrugated cardboard is made), the next snow place on the now empty driver’s seat slipped! Lack of cloth and tempo cloth – of course yesterday the last used and not yet refilled – I could only wipe away the snow water so reasonably with my hand, I know that other vehicles are also affected by pure dripping rain in the open door; on the one hand, however, this is hardly an excuse, on the other hand, the snowfall in the car was already really massive and not yet experienced by me in this form! Have you had similar experiences or am I just too stupid to open a car door? (You may also leave the latter unanswered) Greeting Frank – meanwhile dry again – No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

  • …and it was banging… S60

    Servus together! I thought to myself on Saturday morning: Be nice to your OHL, let her sleep & drive alone (with the moose) to the week shopping… …said & (almost) done: On the short way to the supermarket I thought to myself “on stop signs you should stop”; I did so too… the girl in the KA behind me unfortunately not… So, she wanted to get the plug line, which came then also after 30min & wrote a report (the girl was allowed to pay directly what it has also earned -> nobody is allowed to go unnoticed The damage to my moose was hardly noticeable (I didn’t care about the KA). Today I was at the paint shop of my trust, after all it didn’t paint itself & why not directly to the professional! The friendly paint master noticed some things directly: gap measurements under the tail lamps on the right and left different, gap measurements of the tail aprons on the left side different from right (on the right is also the tank nozzle for LPG), “Dellen” at the push point Well, long speech, short meaning: the moose spends the night in the paint shop today, tomorrow the bumper will be taken off (the gastank will be removed) etc. etc…. Tomorrow I will have the estimate (and also the opposing insurance). I’m curious… And: I honestly thought at the Sa to just reprimand the girl & let her drive again! Fortunately (for me and the elk) the girl wanted to be the race manager. ben… Btw: Is the wiring for the PDC in the back of the moose??? Greeting weflydus

  • Serial phone XC90 – where is the microphone installed and further questions …

    Moin, I’ve had my Dickelch for 2 weeks now. I decided for an exhibition vehicle of my dealer (in order to avoid a longer waiting time). The vehicle has now ‘unfortunately’ the fixed telephone installation … The voice quality (free speech) is really schyxxx … (was already described enough here). Question: Where is ‘usually’ the microphone installed? In addition, the speaker in the left door scrapes even with the smallest basses, how do you get the cover ‘accident-free’ And first of all as the last question: RTI … Can you no longer ‘freely choose’ the scale? Thank you & Greeting Carsten

  • The New in the Forum

    A friendly hello to everyone here. Wanted to introduce myself briefly. I am Buerste and since mid-January proud owner of a Volvo S80 2.0T!!!! Come from the most beautiful city in Germany, maybe even from all over the world!!!! And I have to say, this car is just Gigantic. I know here in this community like to see pictures, but at the moment it is not really presentable yet. I bought the vehicle with slight damage and I want to see it. so I’m looking forward to a nice time with you like-minded Ciao Buerste

  • Buy the “old” V70 or wait for the new one?

    Hello people! So today I was at the dealer and I looked at the current V70. Not quite fresh but with top ergonomics. Since I read that the coming V70 up to the B-pillar is identical with the S80, I put it in the same way. I have to say of the seating comfort the “old” V70 is a lot better. Especially the wide center console is always in my way. Also the Nordberg sports seats in the V70 Edition model are much more comfortable than the leather seats in the S8 0 (summary). Also in the “old” V70 you are so nicely converted, the security feeling is missing in the “new”. The reason why I demand here is that the “old” V70 from the space offer (on the back seat and the low trunk) is almost too small for me. The new one is to become bigger. Is that true? Currently I drive a loading master (Opel Vectra Caravan -> current model). If the new really gets bigger, I am hard to think if I should wait. What do you mean? Age or newer? would you buy? Motorically I introduce with the D5 (185hp) with AT6.

  • Recommended purchase V70 – Corrosion ?

    Hello, I would like to add a used V70 and need your help. Are there problems with corrosion/rust with older V70 (approx. BJ 2000- 2004) ? As far as I have heard, the V70 are only about 70% galvanized !? How does it look with the strongly rock-throwing areas like wheel runs, bonnet etc. ? Please report your experiences to me. Thank you and greeting Hookie

  • S80 2,9 engine dies off, round run, misignition

    Servus dear community, slowly I am a little desperate… 99ers s80 B6304s3 with the gm automatic transmission, was read today by the dealer of my trust error memory because abgacontroluchte illuminated and emission maintenance seemed urgent. quite at the same time an unround run with ~500rpm in stand and temporarily dying engine in stand, almost no gas acceptance and driving feeling of a tractor. well, error memory read out: – both lambdasonden vo, – misignition cylinder 4 active + not active – misignition cylinder 5 active + not active – misignition cylinder 6 active + not activehttp://data.motor-talk.de/…/20130211-223543-8702026483902873616.jpg mechanic meant yes the unround run comes from the cylinders 4, 5, 6 as ignition coil def. Nothing easier than the, ignition coils replaced, everything assembled, result: nothing! no change. one ignition coil pulled out after the other, all ignition plugs switched, also no change. langs at I am really perplexed, because just because of the lambda probes the error codes should not come and the motor does not spin. oil there, sprite there, nerves away :/ hope for one or other helpful tip best greetings from wien

  • New car battery for Volvo V70 II? Which one is recommended?

    Moin @all, an intensive search via SuFu did not yield anything useful, therefore here as a new thread…. With my V70 II, 2.4 T MJ 2003, the battery probably made the grapple. Through a cheerful secondary consumer, which I now still have to identify, it was constantly discharged deep and must now probably be renewed before the winter. Serially the battery has probably around the 70 AH. Now I play with the idea to pack in a battery around the 95 AH. l Sinn, do I have to pay attention (except for the outside dimensions) ? Is there any experience about tests, brands, prices etc. or a link to a comparison test? I am grateful for advice. I am currently in the driving behaviour of the medium-distance drivers, about 4 times a week 75 km, 2 days a week the car stands. Thanks in advance and greetings,

  • RTI DVD player in V70 II defective

    Hi, the DVD player in my trunk is on strike. He doesn’t read the DVD anymore. I copied the DVD times to find out if it could be due to the “used” surface – missing. My friendly … was very quick to sell me a new DVD player in exchange, so a repaired replacement device. But I’m not so excited about over 1,100,- EUR cost incl. playing the new software… If you consider that a DVD player for the PC today just This has to be one that meets special requirements for vibration damping, etc. – but honestly, there must be a better solution. Last time I visited Sweden during my vacation, they can’t offer anything cheaper. Is there anyone here who could solve this problem by using personal manual work or someone who knows that in most cases, for example, the reading head must be exchanged??? Ich mein, einen Lötboben habe ich ja schon… 😉 Freue mich sehr über helpfule Reply… Gruß aus HH
