allo municipality, I have read a lot about tuning of diveren manufacture, among other things heico, mr, etc. such a serious tuning measure has its price. my question is simple and simple, if the 2.4D motor with 130 ps “hardware side” is the same as the d5 motor, is it then not possible with a d5 control unit (original volvo) to increase the power in this way and way? please inform me if this is not possible in my case the better alternative I’m very excited to hear your answers, but please don’t stone me if I’ve misunderstood something… thank you in advance + greeting fraenklin (s60; 2,4d)

Hi, I had also caught it now. At 49tkm whistles from the right back, diagnosis at the friendly : rear wheel bearings have said goodbye. There were replaced without discussion about warranty (XC90 Hat 2 1/2 years ) both bearings by an enhanced version, since Volvo seems to have installed in the first XC90 too weak bearings. But as long as you are replaced on warranty it is at least half as bad. Now is rest in the car again and I can pack confidently to 3 weeks vacation in southern France, of course with the XC90. Greeting Albert

Hey! In fact, yesterday I was able to put my family in the CLK (the Roman baby safe fits surprisingly well and simply! No belt problem!) in order to finally close my XC 70 in the arms. First impression: I think with a lot of good talk my best wife of all will at some point tamely realize that it is MY car, not hers. This morning I was allowed to drive it for the first time. Very nice car, is fun to drive with it. But it is probably true! h still too early for a first conclusion. Only a few spans have come to light on the back seat. One has to tilt the Roman slightly in order to be able to attach it properly. But you can’t have everything… I’ll see that I still have to register on the elk card today. (Good keyword, right? Now BoisBleu can set up the http://www.webcheck.de/component/option,com_frontpage/Itemid,1/ here!) Until later Monty

Hiho together, the days I had the opportunity to test an XC90 D5 in detail (about 500 km). The route was about 30% highway, 20% highway with speed limit 100-130 and 50% highway without limit. Complete route very winding with uphill and downhill. So to make it short the KNALLER… Since I was very spoiled by the engine of my last car (BMW 3.0 Diesel) I had serious concerns about the driving performance. It was already written a lot about it. But I can You calm down, the D5 is relatively fast. Up to 80 a bit grumpy, but for over 2 tons ok. Up to 160 you can keep up quite well on the highway. After that it becomes a bit tough. From 200 is then finished. More I could not test because of the winter tires, would certainly not have gone much. So I would not have thought it possible, am very positively surprised. The automatic switches almost imperceptibly with silky soft transitions. Car is very quiet, at 180 only a weni g Wind noise, you can talk normally. Chassis and road position very comfortable, no problem in fast driven motorway curves. Top brakes. Seats and ergonomics perfect. Strange is the Navi. The female voicers are totally annoying, which takes a bit of an important part. The guy in the RTI sounds like the computer game, which threatens with the attack of the next crossing. The graphics with double screen is very well done. The maps are unfortunately a bit flat, that can be other The operation is extremely simple and intuitive. Criticism of the Navi: (1) When I enter a road without a house number as a destination, the RTI seems to accept the middle of the road as a final destination. However, if I want to go to house number 1, and then somewhere else without ever reaching the middle of the road, the destination remains in the road plan. When calculating the next destination, strange distances and times are displayed. Only when the last track point has been deleted, i (2) I have unfortunately not found the function of the address book. I can enter my most important goals in an address book with other manufacturers and do not have to re-enter them again and again. Sure, if I start the same address again and again I should know the way, you are right, but if I always start the known destination from a new direction the Navi is helpful. Yes *RTFM* already clear, maybe I should first read the manual and then my criticisms are done. Unfortunately I never had a Volvo RTI and in the XC90 only little time. Anyway, I’m sure to have ordered the right car !! Look forward to your new elk, it’s worth it !

So dear community, now I tell you a little bit about my Volvo: since October 2013 I am proud owner of a V70 II 2.4 diesel (DPF incl.) with quite a lot of equipment and heating with then 150 000 km, built in 2007. I bought the moose from a family father. The condition was just perfect, checkbook maintained timing belts and water pump he had made, so there were no objections for me not to buy the car. I slept over another night and then he stood At some point on the doorstep. As far as everything was going well I thought. First the elk got new wiper blades for about 20 € from Ebay. So after 5000 satisfied km, came the right front wheel bearing. I immediately had both front change approx. 700 €. In the month after that the throttle flap had to be changed, as she was over and the engine on the highway always jumped into the emergency running program approx. 895 €. In January 2014 he got then rubber foot mats (approx. 77 €) for the winter original from Volvo – was already in the workshop because the ignition lock (400 €) was defective and the engine could not be started any more. No matter I thought, can happen. Because I am on the road quite a lot he got a hands-free device from Parrot with the suitable adapter from Kuda – together about 180 €. In March I had the car then at the large customer service for 556 € because the last was at approx. 145 tkm and now he has already 169 tkm. Grom USB adapter for about 145 €. But now it’s finally over I thought, enough or already too much invested!!! And of course now something had to come! At the beginning of April the right spring is broken, car had to be towed again – I was really through with the car now! Too bad I thought to myself – now he has to go away – these costs really get on my ass!! For a new spring at the front right the friendly wanted now 562 €. So I already thought about the sale and want Since I already put 3535 EURO (within 6 months) in the moose I prefer to keep it. Old Swede there he was lucky again. The money is simply not getting again!! And since he stays with me now until he falls apart, the day before yesterday still gave new summer tires from Hankook about 400 Euro. But it must also be said that all repairs have been carried out by a Volvo specialist workshop. Maybe I now have a But now I think it’s over. I’ve done almost everything new. But a car is just a single wear and tear part that always has to be invested in, and with a driving performance of about 25000 km a year you can notice that even more intensely. In this sense Happy Easter to you Allen!!

Hello, I drive a S60 2.4i (170 hp) from 2006 with just under 135tkm and wanted to get offers for a timing belt change, because it is due after 8 years or 160tkm in my memory. Volvo Partner A also confirmed this, but Volvo Partner B was of the opinion that the timing belt is only due after 10 years or 180tkm. What’s right now? In addition, my automatically blinding interior mirror has given up the spirit, I would like to fight against a kon The friendly one, however, was not sure whether it would work this way without any problems, since the mounting could not fit or the connection would have to be able to do without the associated control unit. Did someone already perform this exchange here? Actually I wanted to give the S60 in payment but the dealers didn’t just tear themselves around, characteristically the Volvo dealer wanted to be on whom Also on the private market the demand was at 0.0 – is the S60 really so unpopular?

Hello MT-ler, (I tried the search but either I am too stupid, or the topic has not been mentioned here yet…) I have been using self-burned CD-RW (from Platinum) for almost 6 months to listen to music in the car. The CDs are written with Nero and 10 times the speed. It’s annoying from the beginning that the first and last song of the CD is confused in Volvo HU (I have the 603) – so on a CD with 25 tracks comes, if I insert the CD to the st Track 25, then Track 2, 3, 4, 5… and lastly Track 1. I tried some other equipment (admittedly, no other car music equipment), but everyone else does it right. Do other similar misconducts, or did I get a “intelligent” HU? Thanks Daniel, who probably has to change his burning habits. But what do you not do everything for Volvo…

Hello, my Dickelch has been standing at the friendly for 3 days now because of a knarz, clapping, squeaky noise in the dashboard area that starts at 120 km/h and the faster you get louder and louder. So far you haven’t found anything and my friend has even talked to Volvo Sachbearbeiter about the problem. You just can’t find it. Has any of you ever had this problem before? Slowly I also lose the fun. That now after 35,000 km the drive shafts had to be repositioned already the 3rd time, well. That the RTI found no transmitter and the card has considerable errors, but well that now the box can not be driven more faster than 120, because otherwise one gets a nervous breakdown…. Have slowly got the nose so tired. Greeting Volwow who, if there is not now slowly something positive to report, makes sure that Volvo a new n XC90 for crash tests.

Hello, my V70 II D5 Premium automatic year 2003, 120kw with a little over 270,000 km on the clock (quickly hit) screeches me as soon as I give gas. I was in 2 workshops, but in turn. Workshop 1 (free workshop) had thought easy play. There I was because he whistled at acceleration. The charging air cooler was replaced. In the lower area the tubes were bloated, it licked out oil. Intercooler exchanged for 645,- Euronen, car driven from the yard…nu has The next day, the hoses to the turbocharger were checked, everything was tight and solid. The hose/channel below the turbocharger was opened and you looked into the turbo. The blades were very rough. As if dirt had deposited. Air filters were checked, but was inconspicuous (last change during the inspection in January). Statement of the workshop… you can’t know anything. It was suggested by the workshop: Keep driving, do nothing as long as there was no change. Car was on the test bench. Engine has normal pressure, no faults in the memory, performance values all OK. I left 2 brown bills and small change there. After that I went to the Palatinate, left 550 km behind, no change. So I drove to the 2nd workshop, also a free, but on Volvo specialisi There, too, all hoses were tested, especially those below the turbo, especially for leaks. Everything is tight, everything is tight. You can do nothing. Continue until something changes. I also have 2 brown bills and some small change distributed there. I am now at a loss. Should I actually invest 1,5k € in a new turbo or there are still possibilities / tests that I could try before. The moose pulls as usual. The noise can only be heard under load if it is supposed to pull. If i It can be heard when the engine is cold and when the engine is warm. It sounds a bit louder to me. When I go from automatic mode to switching mode to slow down the acceleration through the engine, I hear a similar noise for a moment at high speed. I had the noise recorded during the ride and put it on the server.http://www.woelk.net/sw/1.3gphttp://www.woelk.net/sw/2.3gp Image of the defective intercoolerhttp://www.woelk .net/sw/3.jpg I am grateful for every hint.

Moin people, I intend to buy an XC 90. I like the one herehttp://suche.mobile.de/…/192790471.html?… What do you think about it? Price is ok, what should I look for? Alternatively, the one here http://suche.mobile.de/…/179900449.html?… What about the cost of a gas installation Gruss Helmut
