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 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

Hello Volvo-Gemeinde! I have been following (reading) the articles on Ipod & Co. for quite a while, but have received some questions to ask me, not an exhaustive answer yet. – Does the 5th generation of the (big) Ipod, i.e. the video, work problem-free with the original Ipod adapter? – When is it possible to use it directly via the Ipod? Some wrote it this way, sometimes so. Can one “cause” this with intention? – Can one watch video on the Ipod (e.g. in traffic jam :-)) and the sound over the car or does it just go via USA adapter with jack plug? – Which of the many adapters (Volvo, USA-Spec, Boston-Volvo, …. / FM-Transmitter) is now recommended (sound quality, operation, s.o.)?

Hello Elch-Freunde Bin just stumbled over this article…. There a new V70 suddenly caught fire for inexplicable reasons in Sweden….. According to the article, the V70 is a new car!!! The only two months old vehicle had 900 km on the clock at the time of the fire. http://www.aftonbladet.se/vss/nyheter/story/0,278931080,00.html The driver came down from the motorway exit, and suddenly noticed that his V70 had no more juice – a few seconds later the whole car was in full fire.. It was completely damaged! Volvo Sweden “caught” the wreck and tried to clear the circumstances of the fire. Gruss Schwedentroll

This was probably my last Volvo: V70 2.4D Year of construction 11/2002: – Seat heating defective – Parking brake exploded at 160,000KM – error message rear flap open – pressure valve on turbocharger defective – engine additional heating defective – instrument cluster shows error message SRS Airbag maintenance urgent > defective – air conditioning leaks on the cooler and on pressure line – polternoise front axle It’s enough for me. The donkey rolls 800KM over the track every week and has all inspections.

Hello together, I need a plan! After the original rubber key of my V70II has turned into a black, sticky chewing gum clump, I remember the ‘then read here thread, a flipkey of the newer models (my is EZ 02/2003), to retrofit. Original of the friendly does not work of course. In the thread from 2006 it was advised to get a flipkey from the USA, to order the bowl blade here at the friendly fitting to the FG-No. and to screw the board from the old remote control into the Ami- flipkey. Sounds quite good so far, I would like to do so, my problem is that the flipkeys that are offered in the USA always have 5 keys, e.g. at “midwestkeyless”. My remote control has however only 4 keys, the red triangle is missing. Therefore my question, whether this conversion really has a chance to work out. Maybe someone has already tried it out before me. The rubber keys may now be in resolution, actually a shame for a car, or a premium.

Hello your moose driver once had an XC90 D5 with everything (even the gauge extension and the 20 inches) At that time EZ 10/2004 had only 163hp, which was not as bulging as is the 185 hp now ? am spoiled by my current vehicle (A6 Avant 3.0 TDi) of course, whereby you can’t compare the vehicles from when there is the rear camera ? and what is with parking assistance in front ? how are the sprot seats ? better or only narrower ? what has changed since the otherwise ? has the telfon system become better ? at that time it always echoed without the Volvo it got under control, unfortunately you would take a 5 or a 7 seater, also because of reselling and so is a 6 cylinder diesel planned ? or an even stronger diesel ? Thanks in advance
