Hello together, funny thread title, right? I would like to see two or three Volvos (V70 II 2.4 20V 170 hp) in the far north next week – for me from Lake Chiemsee a day trip. Experience in the purchase of used cars is quite available, but in the eagerness of the battle I always forget something – and unfortunately I am not really fit on this model (yet). Now my idea was the following: A nice and well-informed V70 II person keeps himself ready for one or two video meetings by smartphone and inspects the car “with me” in peace and quiet, while I crawl around there and he lies in bed because of me – I wouldn’t care. I would have thought about 50 € compensation per appointment, that would be worth it to me. How do you find it, would you know someone or would have someone for this experiment? Of course absolutely without any responsibility afterwards – it is clear.

Hello, with my T5 I noticed that with a DZ of approx. 4000U a slight kink occurs, a short hold of the charging pressure and then goes on. It is not a sinking, but only a small plateau (at approx. 0.75bar). It happens to me that the phenomenon is less pronounced at temperatures below 22°C. But with the popometer the feeling of a small power drop occurs. * No fault in the memory. * 98 OktanWhat’s new: * Candles * Air mass meters * Cam wave adjuster What can this be? In the appendix: horizontal line on the ordinate on both diagrams: To constantize the values I drove for a time with the tempomat to ensure the stabilization of the ignition angle and the charging pressure. Then from 3000U I started to pull through as the starting rotation number with the third. After that accelerated up to 5500U. Right yellow line at x-axis at just 3″ (time in seconds): Small break-in. You can see it also with the ignition angle curve, that what changes there. But according to T5 the driver has always been a similar characteristic.

I’ve been looking for a reasonable 7-seater for a long time (we have 3 children). the xc90 is at the top of my list – only I don’t know this car at all. now I’ve got a good offer for a bj05 with 120000km. first possession, purchase from the dealer, 12 months guarantee. my question is whether you can buy the car with this km stand without hesitation, or if I have to reckon with göberen problems in the next few years? what should I pay attention to? many thanks for your support, martin

A nice jute evening on everyone’s side I have a try with my elk and maybe you can help me further. to the vehicle V70 T5 Geotronic gearbox , Gas , Kombi , ca 250 000 down bj 2000 When I wanted to start driving today I could start normal and start driving – it was nothing extraordinary to hear. after a few meters driving a new course although put in but also no more . there was no further acceleration but !!!!! the vehicle rolled out like in idle. a new attempt to insert a gear remained unsuccessful. switch however zero reaction engine issued and short time later rebooted (thought the onboard computer has hung up) gear inserted and only about 10 advance. the whole several times repeatedly without change. the elk moved always only briefly. Did also the battery clamped off briefly and it did not change anything. engine just turns up – no more What could it scratch its ?????

Hello Volvo driver, for a short time my S80 has had a relatively loud cracking in the range of the right drive shaft, drive shaft joints, wheel mount (at least in this area). This happens when I park for example and set back and forward. If I drive backwards, there is a unique cracking. If I then switch into the first gear and let the clutch come, it cracks again. It feels as if there is a certain game in the drive train. At least this reports my highly sensitive popometer. The cracking occurs also in this context of the advance and reset. Otherwise there is peace of mind. First investigations showed that the tap of the drive shaft in the wheel hub should be used again with Loctite. However, it should not be worrying (so the master of my Volvo workshop). Can anyone share this experience or even confirm it? Greeting to all Volvo enthusiasts S-eighty

Hello everyone. I drove an S80 until 2009 and rather by chance saw a nice XC90 at a dealer who jumped right into my eye. What do you think about this offer: XC90 D5 Ocean Race, 185PS, hand switch, Blaumet., Xenon, PDC, telephone, e. seats, driver seat with memory, cruisemat, disks darkened at the rear, level control, 5 seaters, etc. EZ: 08/2008, approx. 57.000km, 1. Hd., checkbook, makes a very well-kept – almost new impression. It should cost including new TÜV and 1 year warranty 28,000.-€. At the moment I drive a Zafira petroler, because I had serious problems with a passat with DPF. Actually I don’t want any more diesel, but the Xruck90 as a petroler will probably be a bit more expensive in maintenance. My question is now how it looks at the D5(185PS) on a long view, if you drive only country road? I have a duty of approx. 25km.

I’m not happy with the lights, but I’m not happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights, I’m happy with the lights.

I’m very grateful to my father for driving a V70 2 T5 with 250 hp. he doesn’t mind that he always has to turn the engine so much, if he wants to skip ect. . at 90 you have to switch it loosely in the 3rd and that might make him fun, but it would also be good if you had a little more NM and didn’t have to turn it so high. I mean, that a chip tuning would be exactly right there, he is not so convinced, since he has never chipped to compare it. also my mama always drives very thoughtfully, but also it bothers her, because before that she had a passat VR6, with which you had a lot more pull on the road, front everything is already in the middle speed range. moreover, also the fuel prices rise and then you have to turn the engine no longer so high? maybe that’s easy to believe. against that would be the increasing NM number and the circuit, which is not designed for it! but that’s a hand switch, but still has to make the ride more expensive, but the ride more expensive?

Hello dear Volvo . Community ! Now it’s getting serious ! The Config stands, the price for my elk Comes (after some changes, you helped me very much – thank you again !) to the round sum of 41 000 € ! Before: This is a proud price ! (for that is also almost everything in it besides Navi ). Ask now the INSIDER: My dealer has given me a discount of 13.4 % + payment of my passat TDi 3000 € over list price. Has he finished with it or is there anything else in it ? How high is the margin at a (relatively small) Volvo dealer ? Is a day registration or a demonstration car worth it ? I FEW ABOUT ALL ANSWERS Summer greetings Karsten

Hello, I now wanted to update my Navi SW old 760 to the new version and of course use the new DVD. When pushing the CD ROM with me comes the error message “This drive can not read the DVD”. Tests with shutting out, restarting the Navi etc. led to no success. Likewise he can not read any of the three new DVDs. Weird, with the “old” DVD he has no problems to read and navigate. Can anyone understand this problem? Does someone know a solution, except the: go to the friendly and let the Rehcner swap? Many greetings from Lake Constance Olaf
