I’m still undecided about my new vehicle, at the moment I’m swirling between Audi A6 Avant 2.7 tdi and Volvo V70 D5. I’ve already sorted out BMW, 159 Alfa, the same applies to Passat, Mondeo and Vectra, which I don’t like at all. What are the reasons why you chose Volvo and the alternatives?

When reducing unwanted noises, I went a “big” step further The exchange of the cargo space roller (on guarantee) has brought absolute calm. I have the impression that the spring is much more prestressed in the new one. However, two points remain: 1. Geschlepper (not too loud and only on uneven road, e.g. cobblestones) from the vehicle underfloor or from the wheels. He has not found anything so far. 2. In the area of the dashboard, a clearly audible “knister” is to be heard at speeds beyond the 130 since the latest, as if scattered goods from the road would roar against the spray wall of the passenger cell. Does anyone have an idea where this could come from? Best regards Robert

Hello and good evening, just ordered us the V8 and now looking for some test reports, but unfortunately found nothing. As the friendly assured us, there is actually only a handful of V8-lers in Germany or hide themselves here in the forum … ? Description – already chic the Scottish leather, but unfortunately does not go in connection with one or other special equipment. relaxed greetings in the round …

Are there war lights in the doors ? I was shocked when I just heard ! ( By searching here your wishes for MJ 2005! found ) Some things have been turned off and relawed (Xenon, 6 gears, more D5 Power) Have the doors now finally these lamps in the equivalent of 20 Euro ? Has even my small car from the VW Group !

Hello together. Stand before a difficult decision. V70 with 163 hp or the D5 with 185 hp ??? Both EZ end 2006 Is the new D5 with 185 hp really even more economical than the 163 he ? What does it look like with the longevity ? Both cars are basically identical from the equipment. 2.4D has run 111,000, the D5 125,000 And so ?????

Hello everybody, my Volvo V70 was built in 2002 and recently the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel no longer have a function. I already removed the sim card, pushed away another law, messages in the display, etc. Brint everything nothing. Does anyone have a tip on what it could be? They all used to go.

Hello, the two sensors have changed at the rear axle, because the pole was broken and the Xenon lit 1 meter in front of the car. In my opinion, the left sensor for the LWR and the right one for Four-C. I calibrated with Vida, Xenon drove into the “normal” position and stop so. However, they no longer level with load on the rear axle. Four-C works perfectly. Does anyone have an idea? Thank you!

Hello together, I was today with my V70 D5 Bj 2002 at the TÜV and unfortunately did not get through. The only lack was that the steering wheel lock grips even though the key is still in the 0 position and not yet pulled off. Now I would have a few questions about it. – could you possibly make that possible again? – if not, do I need the complete ignition lock with everything there with it? – does the key have to be re-learned? – do you get a tüv without the steering wheel lock?

Servus! It’s S60/V70(2) with 2.5T or 2.5T AWD. First of all, I focus on cars with less mileage. Two questions. 1) The 2.5T is an engine with a low boost turbo. What does that mean for daily use? Can you drive the car less hot and cold, or is it like any other turbo, with whom you have to drive warm and cold and avoid short distances? Is the engine less robust than the 2.5 suction cup? 2) AWD: how good is it with 250-350 thousand km? Does it necessarily need to be used for the curves or does it hardly bring anything to the curves? What can a repair cost? In itself, I don’t think it’s great to drive off-roading and in the snow, especially if the car has 200hp (and not 300hp)?

In search of a successor for my V70 D5 for satisfied 150 Tkm I have now also received a brochure about the MondeoTDCI with 155 hp and 400! NM max. With all the frills (leather, xenon) more than 12T€ cheaper. Away from all the image and prejudices: Does any of you have a change behind you and can report?
