  • Organisational information

    Hello, now I’m already active for some time (just 1 year) in this forum and there were always hints from you in the beginning that I might one day get into a problem with my nickname… Well, ‘SteveT6’ just outed me as a driver of a T6, in my case S80T6. This is also well known… I thought back then and also until recently that I would drive the T6 even longer and therefore the Nick will not become obsolete so fast… But it has become about 3 weeks ago I had a workshopermin and as a replacement car there was an S60R…. Driving the car gave me the urgent desire to make a change after 5 years S80 times. So I hit and got the car yesterday: S60 R, MJ 2004, 19,000km VOLVO directional vehicle in absolutely impeccable condition titaniumgrey metallic, Atacama leather cognac 6-speed Navi Xenon Everything else has the R anyway series. I have to say: a great car!!! The quality of the car tsanmutung no longer corresponds to that of the S80 from the year 2000. I still don’t want to make the S80 bad. He was my best car so far, which has reliably accompanied me over 5 years… Now I have to live with the fate of having an ‘unsuitable’ nickname. In any case I remain true to the forum and look forward to the further interesting conversation with you all….

  • XC 90 – Illumination and heating

    Moin! Before I kill anyone there tomorrow on the occasion of my one-month workshop visit interval, someone might kindly explain the following circumstances to me: Away lighting The dark season begins and I think I remember that these lights went on automatically at the bottom of the outside mirror last winter when leaving the car and locked them out again. Unfortunately, TFM does not know any advice about this at all. How is that with you? Heating/climate With the dunk The cool season also begins, of course, and I wonder if the fact that the two middle emitters emit unequal amounts of air at different temperatures at the same set rotary regulators, is based on highly scientific, Volvo-specific warming parameters, or that the thing is just scrap, like so much about my car? In the summer, I didn’t notice it, but I didn’t come to it as often as I did in various spare weights. n was on the road… Maybe someone has an idea? The fact that the cruise cruise is simply gruesome during the ride is also to be taken from other contributions we should not actually be directly connected with the approaching winter… Sometime soon I drive the Sch….-karre into the sea… Gruss, Björn …for relevant information anyway (still) grateful!

  • V 70 Own forum ??

    Hello guys ! What I’ve been pretty much on the cookie lately is that I have to deal with quite a lot of models in this forum, V 70, XC 70, V 60, S80 and XC 90 !! As the owner of a V 70 I have to look for a long time now until I get a topic relevant to me. I have the impression that XC 90 would need a forum of my own, but I don’t really know exactly how to send it to the moderators. m theme off, S 40 and V 50 finally have their own forum ! Best regards, keep racing !!

  • blower heater battery

    Hello had until 1 year ago an XC90 Bj 2004 120kw automatic D5,lief Prima wanted to drive something else and I switched to a Mercedes S320 CDI, ran Prima, but rather again an XC90 now Bj 2006 136kw D5 model Ocean Race, automatic with almost everything, unfortunately also with some problems, last Friday morning he jumped no longer to the battery was too weak (new battery is installed), I charged you for 3 days everything well, then battery too weak, thought it is due to the seat heating too high power consumption, but after 600km in one day partly with seat heating should be no problem The following problems occur on 1. blower can not be regulated and runs after switching off the engine continues, battery disconnect, engine start, blower can not be regulated then once more, runs full can 2. Stand heating is on, timer 1 is off, then timer 2 is off, runs nevertheless, battery can be switched off then good engine start: stand heating or not, (is always off) When starting and playing at the studio I only listen to the sound of a CD at the end of today, when I listen to a bit of a bit of a CD.

  • Removable AHK from THULE BRINK vs. WESTALIA for V70

    What’s more, I’ve been thinking about the standard for some time now, which AHK would probably be the “most invisible” solution for our non-level adjustable V70 MY2007. Variant 1THULE BRINK abnehmb. BMC Art. 469200 (price 309,- €) http://www.brink.eu/trekhaak.php?… orhttp://www.autoteile-immler.com/…/start.aspx?… Variant 2WESTFALIA detachable Art.No.: aVO016 (price ca 315,- €) www.bs-ahk.de/ahk.php orhttp://www.bs-ahk.de/…/p0nmmjc70mci5qcff3l9aq8dlsdhp bin is an open question for further information. The solution should be largely invisible in terms of how to say: The trailer load of approx. 1500 kg will not be exceeded. However, it must be said that I will not be used for an alternative handle for those who has been found in terms.

  • Volvo V70 BJ 2006 170.000 km Automatic transmission Maintenance?

    Hello dear experts, I have the following problem: From time to time the gearbox does not turn up or late. Recently I had the message “peering transmission maintenance required”. I then switched off the engine and switched it off again, then the car was back to normal. Now I was in the workshop (crunch) and had the car read out and the good man advised me to have a transmission maintenance (oil change and filter change) done, in the hope it would go again… Supposed the gearbox would be “lost”, any copper plaques???, okay I didn’t understand it… Anyway, he said a new transmission would soon be due, which would cost 6000 €, – not worth it – with other words, I should watch the car sell and look at something else. Somehow I don’t trust that. My question, does a transmission maintenance bring something that can cost that and should have had the transmission flushed? Can Krüll that at all? Somehow I felt bad advice. But I don’t know where else I can go, somehow have some respect for gears, but I still have to make sure that I’ve got another appointment.

  • VolvoWiki

    Hello together in the almost endless preheated FAQ thread the idea of a wiki for FAQs came up. Also instructions like the switch reset instruction of xc90newbie would be a candidate for a wiki entry. As already mentioned in the beaagten thread, I would easily make a wiki available, it would not be the first on our server. What do you think about it? If you like the idea, please answer the additional question of Olli the Driver: should everyone be able to edit the articles or only after registration? Christoph
