Hello moose community, have read recently that I can increase my moose (S 60/ 2.4/ 140 hp) by 50 hp for limp 600 € (MR Sweden-Sport). Has any of you ever tested this before? Have the expectations (more torque,more hp) been met? Ask for honest opinions. Greeting Uzi

Hello, after laaaangem engine ruckeln and nem replaced LMM, solenoid valve for Tutbodruck (TCV) and cleaning the throttle flap and a new engine software update, should be played today at Volvo a DK update. However, the playback did not work, as the DK did not take any more. According to Volvo the engine ruckeln and the restless engine run at 2000-3500 U/M from just this now broken DK. They said that the DK was 99% defective. In the error memory however, nothing is stored….! buy the Volvo from the free small dealer and have now agreed so ( despite warranty) that I participate with 350 Euros. Can one get for the V 70 II 2.4 Turbo EZ: 11/00, also a different DK than the Magnetti Morelli?? E.g.: ne Bosch? First of all have the information that the Bosch would fit from 08/2001 ??!!! Is that so? Does the DK really cost 700 Euros without installation?

Hello, with our V70 D5 Bj 2006 the right dipped-beam failed. Message incandescent lamp defective. No problem, just switch into the workshop and lamp. Unfortunately this did not succeed. In the meantime I was already 2 times in the workshop and still drive one-eyed. It is to be observed that when the ignition is switched on, both lights turn on, but the right one again after about 1 second. Now the workshop plans a two-day act to find the cause. On my question, whether you d as lamp module or relay on the control board could not even test with the one from a same vehicle, I was told that the module and also the relay are vehicle-specific programmed and can not simply be replaced. As consolation then on the last visit a plastic lever on the engine was removed and pressed into the hand. “That’s unnecessary” The part is 9cm long, about 1cm wide, has a ball holder at one end and at the other end a hole, about 3mm. can tell me how I go on most meaningfully, or does someone know a workshop in Southwest Germany (I live in Villingen-Schwenningen ) where there is someone who has a plan in the area? ( I don’t mean schematic ) Thank you and always good ride hans164

With my V70 R AWD automatic the cylinder head gasket has gone off. The car has just 90000 km down. The cooling water temperature was always middle, no deviation to ofen, even with longer motorway rides. In addition, the R has an oil cooler. Does anyone have a similar experience with the R? The gasket is normally only hops when the engine gets too hot? The whole thing is quite inexplicable to me, especially with the Km performance.

Hello! I have a short question… In my last tyre purchase, the dealer probably put on the rims with the usual 140Nm at Volvo… That would have been great, if I had had original Volvo alloy rims (for the winter tyres it would have been right… )… Now my summer alus only want to be attracted with 110Nm! So now the first question: does this damage the rims?! And the second question: should I solve the wheel nuts again and with 1 10Nm, or should I leave it at 140Nm?! Thank you for your answers in advance! Bye, Dirk

Hello Elkgemeinde. After having snowed with us now, I had to introduce my S 80 Premium A with his brother to the snow Oh, as I always admire it. My Volvo does not freeze in winter, always comes from the spot or when a BMW or Mercedes gives up the spirit and then the envious looks of the people. The only thing that always bothered me was when I lay down a drift and I make the DSTC, I always noticed that it intervenes. r also goes very well with a front drive Nice again and again how good the bi-xenon from Volvo is! After numerous drifts and fun driving I say now really proud Volvo for life! Here my S 80 in the wonderful beautiful snow! Greetings from Switzerland

Servus municipality 🙂 I hope for the help of the cracks here in the forum, my dealer does not know any advice, the search only resulted in hits from the year 2007 – but since then, to my knowledge, the technology has changed already twice. The following problem: I was replaced as part of the guarantee of the DVD player of the RSE, because after a short operating time it ran hot again and then shut down automatically. In the new player I get now after reading any DVD (are all previously in the old Pl ayer ran without problems) the message “Wrong Region”. I suspect an exchange device that was intended for a market that does not match the regional code “2” (Europe, Japan, Middle East, South Africa) usual in Germany. Now I have read during research on the net that the code can be reprogrammed – but that has to be done by the dealer / an authorized workshop; there does not seem to be any freely available instructions on the net? My dealer has according to settings In the “Media Menu” (remote control) run a demo DVD from Land Rover that worked; the own DVDs didn’t. Does anyone have good advice for me? Change dealers, change players, change brands, change lives I include as an option – but maybe there is a simpler way? For good tips I am very grateful! Greetings from Munich Lutz P.S.: It should go on holiday on Thursday, with the little one (just five) on the back bench. And if possible with working DVD player …

Where are there stronger headlight bulbs for V70 AWD? In the manual “HB 3” is noted as a base. I would like to install 100 watt headlight bulbs (frequently on the way at night), but find only such pears for H7 and H4, nowhere for “HB 3”. What is this for a super special base or are there other products that fit in there but do not call HB 3? The question in the more advanced stage of despair would then still be called: Can one convert to other base? Halogen conversion is not possible h, says the Garagist. (For V70 AWD year 2000, new form). Who knows advice?

Hello people Ride an S80I bj. 2004 145 000km I replaced all 4 stabistangs today. Outside it was nice and dry and it sounded great again! Until it started to rain. Now it is wet outside and then comes back the noise that I don’t know from where it could be. They both sound exactly the same. No matter if front left or back right. It’s a dull hitting front left and sometimes back right. So I order it from my ear. What else can that be? is really about 99% in wet road conditions. Domlager I think rather less as I hear no noise while steering. Thanks Gruss jimmy

Hello everyone, I need your help, have already fought through the Sufu, but still a bit confusing ?!? I want an ipod nano/touch/Classic in my V70 afterwards. It is a V70 II EZ 07/2007, Radio 850 Premium Sound Dolby Pro Logic and of course has the AUX connection in the middle shelf, also RTI Navi, CD changer, Volvo phone and multifunction steering wheel. When I connect the ipod to the AUX connection, I listen to music, but have no control on the radio or multifu nktion, right ?? If I get the special ipod adapter cable, this is relatively expensive (170 Euro???) but I can control the ipod via radio and multifunction steering wheel, right ????? Is the imiev the only true solution, because I can also watch videos from the ipod on the Navi screen or connect a rear camera, or also watch TV ???? I have not quite understood what the imiev really can do and how is the current situation to buy/order the imiev and who installs the right one and where is it positioned ? Thank you for your quick tips ! Nice weekend !
