Moin dear Volvo community, after I have decided to drive my rideable chair for all eternity due to the no longer offered engine, I have the following plans. First of all I would like to install the rear lights in my XC 90 (2005), which were installed from 2007 (please do not have a design discussion at this point, is just a matter of taste). My question is now whether this is possible without any problems. Are the corresponding lamp carriers with each rear light, or would they have to Are the plug-in contacts of this carrier identical? I don’t want any crafting on my car here. And where we are – is the new radiator emblem 2010 also available on the old radiator grille? I already got the price, only nobody could say if it fits and can’t give it back then. I mean it would have given an inconspicuous change to the radiator grille in 2007 (the chrome border seems more massive) or I would be mistaken. Then maybe the e Emblemstrebe a little too short. Maybe someone knows something. If someone wants to switch the taillights with me (like to be), I am ready for every shame. Have a nice Sunday in the round! – Marcus

Hello, in search of a family car to commute I ended up at the V70. The budget is 7,000 – 10,000 €. In the year for the time being approx. 25,000 km will be driven, later (in one year) due to professional changes probably less, so that a diesel could be considered for the first time, but I don’t know about the savings as from when this is calculated. The car should accompany me the next four to five years as maintenance-free as possible. easy recommendations, what I have to pay special attention to or do you perhaps have a concrete model as a suggestion? With best regards

Hello together, either the XC90 has a drive-in program, which is disabled after 20Tkm or otherwise something is broken. Background: Quite exactly after crossing the 20Tkm limit the xc90 seems more toxic, more splashy but also a tick more dangerous. When giving gas in the (strong) curve the front wheels rotate slightly and it pushes from the rear over the front wheels. Strange behavior, but makes mood. p.s. there is now officially a drive-in program, with which the xc90 i n the first 20Tkm is protected? Best regards crea

Hello together! Now I have to get rid of a second topic after my thread with the chassis problem here… In the course of the review of my S60R I had this yesterday at the dealer on the stage. I also noticed that the angular gearbox which drives the cardan shaft for the rear axle drive, has a light oil film at the bottom of the case. However, no oil drips out or even on the ground but it is just this greasy film on Now I wanted to ask the rest of the R-fraction here, what your angular gears look like. My R has only 32,000km on it. You don’t really expect a gear to leak… The rest under the vehicle, i.e. engine incl. oil tank and the actual manual gears themselves are dust-dry. I don’t have problems with the drive train while driving or strange noises. The AWD also works in itself. I then have the housing surface. The cloth now has a 5-6cm diameter large black stain. This does not feel like oil, but just greasy, almost dry. The WG now looks wonderful after cleaning. If there is now the next 32,000km again the same amount ‘sweats out’ I am soothed… But you never know. In this sense thank you already for your feedback on this… Greetings Steve

Hello together! Now I have been driving my moose for 7 weeks and was happy and satisfied. Yesterday then in a Düsseldorf parking garage my mood rushed abruptly down. When parking in this absolutely elk-unsuitable parking garage I ripped open the whole back left side on a concrete pillar! The back door is pressed in and the paint off will probably have to be a new one. The rear fender is also totally in the bucket. But what does it look like there? re fender is a continuous part passing the windows. Do I really have to get the complete left side made new from the front to the back?? A pretty (especially about yourself) annoying Doc….

Hello and good evening, I wanted to get rid of a few experiences about the things mentioned in the title. On the weekend I converted my S60 year 2001 from partial leather to full leather seats. Both expansion and installation worked wonderfully and are possible with relatively little effort. Since I have been looking for a long time in the net before the purchase decision, and as a exchange is possible I will try to upload a few pictures of the exchange here in the near future. ng also a seat heating I wanted to activate this immediately after installation with the friendly. Seats including control unit had I installed, so only software and the 2 switches were missing in the climate control. According to my Volvo dealer, this is not a topic with the software either! However, the two switches seem to be no longer available!! Now I stand there with the seats, but without the two switches! Have already posted on the marketplace under search, unfortunately So if someone still has the two switches for the seat heating please report absolutely. Whether grey or black I really don’t care! But without the switches I can’t test at the moment whether the retrofitting of the seat heating is really a target! For exchange I can also offer a blind cap on my control panel, plus additional payment from my side of course. So if someone has broken the control panel and he has the switch The photosm from the exchange or a PDF with a few reminders, order and photos I will create as soon as possible. Since to me (toi,toi,toi) the side airbags have still flown the ears, this should have fit with the plugs, ERC also murmurs! When the battery was stuck after the exchange really scared, but everything good! The old partial leather equipment I have in it at Bite. For 100 tacken there is really a top seating set. Have a good night and see you soon.

Hello Volvisti, there’s my new used V70R tomorrow and I’m thinking of planting a suitable roof box on it. If there’s a lot of luggage in it. In Scandinavia I’ve seen a box that’s very flat and spreads over the entire roof width, it’s herehttp://vccs.volvocars.se/…/VCC-249322.htm Does anyone know where to buy it here in Germany? I thank you for Axel

Hello Volvo municipality, I think about buying a good used XC 90 2.5 t. That would then be an all-wheeled car. My question is, do I need there in our widths (Düsseldorf), actually winter tires or is that so with the bit of snow? If winter tires, then on extra rim? Are there any such large steel rims? What do you do there? I am now of course riding on the S40 winter tires, but is also not an all-wheeled. The new would be used by Private 1.Hand and would have 30000 km down. I think this is a reliable car. Thank you very much for your tips and information.

Good evening together, I’m currently driving my third V70 (currently 2.4D Edition Sport, EZ 2007, Geartronic, Heico pushes a little bit and tries to turn the horsepower wandering around in the Geartronic into a tunnel…) and have been mentally walking with a new XC90 “pregnant”.. A “real” Volvo will probably not give any more and it has just sooo much space… Now the question: What is the right time to become concrete? Wait for the new price list 04/2010 to look whether there are more sugars besides the edition version? Better leasing or purchase (by myself), because the value of a 3-year-old XC90 seems to be about 0….? Is someone about to buy an XC 90 from you? What are “usual” conditions at present? Please listen to me. Greetings from Bayern MG

Has anyone experienced how and if you can connect an Ipod to the HU-603. Have the IceLink system from Dension and it was connected by the Vertargswerkstatt – get in the pipe of the alternator etc.; despite throttle etc. Now the VK of the IceLinks advised me to use the second antenna connection of the HU-603. Does this have?? And do I need an adapter?? Would be grateful for any help.
