Hello, has anyone heard about the Volvo recall campaign? It’s in the video!!! Greeting Olli

Hi, is that possible with Volvo at all. Can one possibly activate this by software? with my old car it was so, when I opened the radio key longer on the button, the windows opened. At the close longer on the button window again… etc.

Yesterday evening, DSF saw a comparison between these two competitors of the higher-ranked combined cars. The Audi; the latest generation with air suspension and all pipapo (it doesn’t look bad at all!) The Volvo, as we know in, was a little dusty with the new 185hp D5 engine. Actually, the result of the comparison was clear in the front, at least to me, but it was different! The Swede had a nose-length lead ahead of the German! The main reasons were the price, the steering advantages and the engine. In addition, the Audi’s air suspension was classified as loud away from the road, whereas the steel springs of the Volvo were shining!? Gruss Kusi, who was somewhat astonished at the time.

Hello together here again a picture section of me from 26.5.06. Please be patient until I have uploaded the pictures. Gruss Christoph, with new camera

What is it that I have to do with my V50 2.0D only in the sister forum? Now there is probably a career change and therefore the return of the V50. Since I understandably need a mobile kit after that, there are now considerations to buy a used V70 D5 privately. Reasons: – Enough space e.g. with children in the next years (currently only in planning, but one looks ahead) – V70 D5 (163PS) I know from my own experience (was once one here in the fleet). From my point of view bear-strong engine. For price reasons (Budget up to approx. 23.000 €) I come in my research so far on BJ02/03 with up to 100TKM (but also which ones are under 50TKM). I actually want to buy from the dealer. Compared to a new car in this price class (e.g. Octavia II Kombi, Astra Caravan) I would like to know from my point of view a much more solid, safe car with even more space. Now I would like to buy a few tips for the actual BJ?

Hello I have registered with you today and would like to hear your help on the topic of purchase recommendation Volvo V 70 or Audi A 6 Avant. I have read through the various media once more. I have to buy either A 6 Avant or V 70 Diesel about 1 year old. I have not yet set myself on the motorization 96 kw or 120 kw. Do you have experiences which car is the better of the two and why? Do you also have experiences with the two motorizations? Thank you already for your help now.

Hello to each other, I have ordered the sunroof, but I’m a bit confused by some posts in the forum. Is the SD worth 990 Euro? Is it too small? I could still turn it off again. What do you think and how are your experiences? Maybe someone has pictures. I would be very pleased about that.

Hello together, my S60 had just the first time for inspection. Speak 60000 km (the inspection has taken over before the friendly one) . Now the invoice: 475 ,- € !!!. Nothing was repaired or serviced without plan. Only knits according to service booklet. A previous request at my friendly returned a maximum price of approx. 390,- € (depending on what you find,so the friendly one). And now this invoice. Honestly, I have chosen the wrong brand, or falls my friend only out of the frame. What has to be done if the brakes are still due ,or similar . Will wait for your answers and then pay my friendly a visit . Weddi

Compared to my last XC90 D5 185hp(EZ 11/05) the turbo whistles clearly with the modified (equivalent engine EZ 4/06), in addition comes a fire that goes lgs. on the nerve. Sometimes sounds like an automatic mofa. Does anyone know that? My friend says the resonance body has been changed in the meantime and everyone is whistled now?!? Is that true? Besides, the steering is crackling at the end of the steering impact on both sides, was not at the same time. Don’t be sure to fix that the frdl. Does anyone else think that? In the old case, the exhaust tailpipe was still bright after 10000km, now already after 2000km black. In the meantime another particle filter was installed which is absolutely maintenance-free, in the old case a cartridge has to be changed after 100000km (300.-Euro). I assumed that the first one had a completely maintenance-free particle filter. Thank you for your answers, Greetingol

Dear Forum, since the new S60 is still waiting (if it comes at all), I have been informed by my dealer about the new S80 and the XC90. Both models are currently available with the well-known gasoline engine 2.5T with 200 hp (or 210 hp) and will be delivered with the new 3.2-6 cylinder and approx. 240 hp from 2007 onwards. The sales consultant now said that the 2.5T engine would be replaced by the 6 cylinder, i.e. the 2.5T would be completely removed later. Can I not imagine, however, that the gasoline starter models only started with 240 hp. Normally the engine pallets are rounded down rather to the bottom. Unfortunately, I have not found anything in the forum yet. Does anyone have any more information? Do you think that waiting for the 6 cylinder would be worthwhile?
