Hello, play after just under a year and 25000 km to make a chip tuning at my D5. But long speech short sense….just by whom? Wetterauer or Upsolute (they are priceless!!) but what do they do. Who has experiences with Upsolute? Wetterauer I know from experience is very good but not cheap! I know, I know, this is certainly the 3000th question regarding Chiptuning, but I still think interesting again and again due to the different Meinu Ngen! Are there no problems with the automatic system because of the obvious more Nm? Somewhere here in the forum I have read that the Autom. can only hold about 350 Nm!? Greetings Patrick

I have 2 S 60 occasions offers with the same price: 2.4T AWD Automat(without Geartronic) T5 Handswitched I work in the field service and drive about 50Kkm a year. I used to drive the automat (Opel) and enjoy it too. Now I’m doing very hard, should I stay at the automat and enjoy more comfort or grab a sporty vehicle. Is the T5 even suitable as an outdoor service car? Is it true that the leather seats in the 2.4T are a little softer? Hand transmission is somewhat inaccurate? Thank you…..Grusse from Switzerland!

Hello dear Volvo community! The topic of larger aluminums at the S60 seems to be a hot topic. I downloaded today a report from Borbet ( www.borbet.de ) for 8×17″ ET 35, it says, you definitely have to turn back. For other rims, the same size and ET is always “in” only. Now I am at the very beginning, I can despair. Maybe someone can tell me his experience with accessories-alus (17″. Would really help me. (Please click here) (sorry for the question, don’t know me with lowering) Does anyone know what the original Tethy 7.5×17″ from Volvo cost? Maybe someone has an expert opinion as “pdf”? If I don’t get along with the accessories alus, I will probably take the original ones from Volvo. PS: I wanted to screw on my new tailpipe cover today. I wanted to do this with the original end tube. I had to realize with horror that the ESD and the middle straw (2m long) form a unit and therefore can not simply be dismantled and transported like this – will try the workshop. In advance thank you for the answers! Eric

Hello together! I have to follow my V70 before spring and would like to dismantle the roof rails in the course of this project. But now I have seen that the roof strips are cut and I need new “transparent”. Can someone please tell me where I can get these strips cheaply? What do they cost to the friendly? or does someone even have which ones in the basement are only a sad existence? Thank you for your aanswers! Greeting Steffen!

Hello colleagues, had jja problems with my falling cargo space cover at the V70. Last Friday (17.15) then drove for the first time to a workshop in Cologne and there presented my V70 !Re-Import!. On Tuesday morning they called me already and told me I could pick up the new part on guarantee. Super or? Then I asked for the software for my on-board computer (from Italian in German); is ordered, but what is also OK: Now come on! Then ask After the update for the rain sensor, I had never heard anything about where I would have heard it. I did tell my source MT forum. The two service people twisted their eyes and said that there was no such thing. I was so stupid. So now you’ve been there. Is there the update, (he has already got one) can you prove that, are there any other relevant changes by means of software that are relevant > and that one has already got???? Would you like to d as Write question mark in the face. Nu mal los, Gruß Flodder V70 D5 Bj 04 2004

I have had a new Volvo V70 D5 for about 1 month and had a relatively short time problem with the driver’s seat. After a short driving time (about 3-4 minutes) I get a numbness feeling in the always right leg. I have already tried all seat adjustments but nothing changes. At the moment I am in treatment with the doctor, but he has not noticed anything yet. (investigations are still ongoing). In my previous car (Opel Omega MV6) I never had these problems. ndler naturally means that it can’t be on the car. Sometimes I have the feeling that it might be due to the vibrations in the gas and brake pedal (diesel). Or that the leg is narrowed by the front narrowing seat cushions. I just can’t find out the cause as the numbness still lasts for a long time. I have the feeling that the problem only occurs during the ride. I would be interested to know if someone has already experienced similar things. Or maybe have a tip.

Hello, I have a problem with my V70 D5 with uneven tires. At the moment I have v.orn left approx. 3.6 , rear left 3.9, front right 5.8 and rear right approx. 6.4mm. My Volvo dealer, who has raised the wheels (for the second season) usually always makes the wheels the same place where they were the year before. Now he thinks that he may have switched back left to front right. My objection, the track could have been misplaced for me. Now I am superior to mounting the better wheels forward and the bad ones backwards, so that I can get out as much as possible, because the front drive is running faster. The dealer thinks that I should just do this the other way around, the better wheels were on the rear axle because of the safety. One could then if a few wheels had gone off t first replace these and later the others. What is better and safer now? Thanks for feedback’s Peter

Today I read an article at Spiegel-online, where the crash compatibility between a Golf V and XC90 and Kia Sorento was tested. The result seems to be that even modern SUVs with technical tricks like the front crossbar are still unimaginably unsuitable crash opponents for smaller vehicles. And the current golf is neither in size nor weight a really small car. However, I would have been interested in the golf like Touareg, X5 and ML. Should we assume, for example, that the German ADAC only tested foreign SUVs?

Hello, who has experienced this before, or who knows such a case???? Yesterday 05.06.2004 we picked up our niegel nagel new caravan about 10 meters in MG with a Volvo V 70 with removable trailer coupling. Super max trailer weight 1800 kg. Through MG right…left…high…down…braking…starting…… everything ok!!! After 50 kilometers on the highway (tempomat inside) look into the mirror and a set of my husband “Now he’s gone”. Shock, a look backwards and there he rolls. M Seeling alone towards the guardrail!!! At the guardrail he came to stand after a few meters. a starter of 20,000,– € 4 hours old 50 km driven, a damage of approx. 10,000,– €. Great!!! Does anyone know about this??? Can someone tell us or help us how the case law looks??? The safety rope was attached to the clutch, but the hook was attached to the trailer (the entire removable trailer coupling, enticed, safety bar closed).

Hello dear moose community. I have a few questions for you and I was today an XC70 Bj 2005,176tkm, circuit,163hp from first possession trial driving and there I noticed a few things. And indeed the clutch comes very late. So so late that it practically sets the car in motion only when you are almost down from the pedal. Then the seller said, it would not be bad, because it does not jerk. Is this true or runs there a clutch damage or is the clutch ready for exchange ? Then the timing belt was changed at 98tkm even though according to the checkbook it would have been only at 180tkm. What does that indicate or why such an earlier change? That was 2012, so now 2022 I had to let him change right after the purchase, because of the 10 years. Longer in would not be a good idea or? First stood now just 75tkm only run. Besides, the right exterior mirror actuator was defective, since the mirror was only to move left and right but not to move t more up and down. At the left mirror tape is made around, which you have not seen at all, since it has come against somewhere and now the outer cover is defective, the lower lamp falls almost from the mirror and electrically only the right mirror works on. The right cracks, will collapse but does not work. In addition, the door seal on the left as well as on the right front are defective, which should also be completely changed. He was advertised for 9980€. Down we traded it on gla tt 800€. Would that be a reasonable price for the defects or rather not even the coupling is over?https://m.mobile.de/…/341457562.html?… That’s him. Thanks for your help.
