Hello Elkgemeinde, my elk sales consultant advised me to buy the Four-C chassis. However, he did not mention that this would eliminate the necessary level regulation for me. This was not apparent to me from the sales documents, nor from the Internet car configuration of December 2005. Is there any indication in the sales documents 2005 about the abolition of level regulation ?? Mabongo

Hi! I have been driving a fancy XC 90 since February that runs perfectly apart from the following problem: After the car has been standing longer (i.e. overnight or something like that) it happens (i.e. not always) that the radio after the departure (whether I change stations or the radio settings) changes the stations irregularly in descending order (i.e.: stored transmitter 1, then 10 then 9 then 8) etc. … at the same time the radio sets the volume always lower… at some point it stops again (no particular reason) … Does anyone know the problem or can someone help me? The friendly people could not find anything and in this forum there was also no post… I would be open for any hint – and grateful… friendly greez Tobe

I bought a V70 T5, century 2001, with practically new Alus 18″ (Tora). So I went to France full-packed in the summer. Now 3 of the 4 rims have felt a strong blow, although I did not torpedo a rim or otherwise a pothole or something like that. They tell me now that foreign rims can deform at high speed (more than 160 had I not driven at that time) because they do not have the same stability as original rims. Very likely the manufacturer of the rims will take this point of view and stay out of the matter by pointing out that the rims were iO at the time of sale. Did anyone of you experience similar things and how did it turn out? Did someone have good experiences with a foreign rim on a current V70; if so which factory? Well, maybe I’m really bad. I look forward anyway to every inscription!

Hello, I just remembered: the wiping water in my car is only frost-proof up to approx. -10°C. If it should freeze, then the container bursts or is it made of quite flexible material??? I only came up with Ciao, Eric

I had the “old xc 90 GT 163PS diesel. Now wants to buy the “new xc90 with the new GT and the new diesel. Is the quieter? because it turns up little? Does the option laminated glass in the side panes sound noticeable?

I have read about it here before, but I didn’t find a suitable Fred. With my XC70 it cracks slightly metallic from the bottom of the driver’s seat. It is clearly noticeable how the seat works with a quick change of direction or load and there is a cracking noise of itself. I had therefore already found my elk to the operating room with the friendly one. He of course found nothing and therefore could not fix the damage. My popometer still notices it and even my OHL has already noticed it (which also has something to mean). My elk is a MY2005 and therefore it is no longer like the predecessors (according to the friend’s statement), which was the previous reason for most noises in the seat. Has someone with a MY2005 similar experience? Has it been fixed with someone? Greeting Heiko

I’m about to tell my friend my “special wishes” in terms of software settings with my new big guy. I can remember darkly that someone has already posted two (?) VADIS numbers here for unlocking the SH, but the search for it unfortunately didn’t lead me to the thread – does anyone else???Otherwise to recommend soptware tuning (except for the thing with the belt mold and the windscreen washing system)?

Volvo was not represented itself, but Heico with a beautiful XC90 in dark blue. Opposite was the huge Audi stand with 2 x Q7, one of them also in dark blue (as S-Line) and also a “Hingucker”. The concepts are jä similar: Raised SUV segment, all-wheel, but without reduction, three rows of seats and a lot of loading area. The Audi “wasted” for this over 5.00 meters. The Q7 looks, especially from the front, quite powerful and was much amazed. The sideline is less exciting. The quality impression of the interior equipment is at the level of a Touareg with special equipment, the seats in the two front rows of seats offer decent space (more seat area than in the XC90) and good side support. Also, you will find a little more leather in some places where the XC90 plastic has. Unfortunately, the seats in the third row are – similar to the Volvo XC90 – completely retractable and only what is suitable for shorter distances or smaller people. The ideal charging space is not suitable for the size of the XC90.
