Hello! I’ve been reading here for a while, really nice community! I’m 46 years old, self-employed master craftsman and happy family fatter. First the joyful news: This morning I made my way with my wife to the friendly and made the purchase (m) of a Volvo XC 90 summum perfect. I’m happy like a little child To the equipment… – Summum D5 5-seater automatic gearbox Geartronic – parking aid back – speed-dependent power steering – LM rims Camulus 235/60 R18 – Metallic coating Sapphire black – Anthracite/Chestnut Brown – RTI- Navi – AHK – Suitcase shell mat – Rear view camera I think I’ve fulfilled my dream before 2. What kind of profession do you practice? Do you have problems with rehearsing? (The Dickelch is not exactly the smallest How are you satisfied overall? Best regards Frank

Hello, since my Dickelch (D5 136 KW) had to be inspected, today I had an 8 month old XC90 V8 for one day as a replacement vehicle. What should I say? 14000 EUR more on new purchase is not worth the engine. When accelerating hardly noticeable extra power. Gear shiftinterwals are much shorter and more precise in my diesel, therefore my D5 fills up much more agilely. Leak from the consumption (have returned the V8 with the same driving mode after 100 km with 14 liters of cutting consumption. Sure, the advantages of such a V8 are: quieter than diesel and from 180 KMH on the motorway there is still enough power. But at 315 hp I expected more. What is your opinion? Alex

Moin together, after far too long waiting time my “little” has finally been delivered on Friday. Since then father runs proudly like Oskar through the area and the junior only wants to drive in the off-road car. After the first hundreds of kilometers I have to say that he runs relatively quiet despite diesel. One hears him nag at first, but that is over after a relatively short time (okay, Diesel remains audible). And after that is extremely relaxed driving is called for. And so that you get a picture of the K a few pictures here. Greetings from Bremen, Lars

we have within a year now for the third time the same serious problem with our xc. does any of you have experiences with the conversion right at volvo ? thank you

After a long time of dreaming, I decided to buy an S60. After a lot of effort of the configurator, I chose the following: S60-2.4D 126PS Momentum Color: Black Interior: NORDBORG Partial leather m. Sports. vo. Light beige, interior design Beige Parking aid rear Reserve wheel full-fledged laminated glass HU 650 RDS (4*50W) Did I forget anything very important? How do you find this configuration?

Hello, starting from the survey for him I would like to ask the question of the questions here. I quote: Quotation: Now I read so often already from dissatisfied … drivers, that slowly the question is really asking me, how so the end user really thinks about the car. Of course I know that in a forum mostly problems and dissatisfaction are discussed. So hand on the heart: how satisfied are you really with the big guy? It would also be nice to whom in you Pro and Kontra can briefly and briefly present here… Greetings Tom (and also very excited about the answers!)

Hello, as I was able to read in the weekend at Teknikens Värld, there will be a successor for the S60, which will be based on the new line of the 2009 coming XC60. Unfortunately, TV only has Photoshop illustrations, but they were also close to the V70III. Confidently, the sketches are from Steve Mattin. The S60 itself is to be presented in 2009/2010. What will happen in the meantime with the S60 is not in the article. e TV an: 2,0F Flexifuel (R4, 145PS) 2,0TF Flexifuel (R5, Turbo, 200PS) 2,5T R5 on 200PS “rottled” 3.2 R6 with 238PS T6 R6 Turbo, 285PS 2.4D with the well-known 163PS and D5, stays at 185PS I hope that the 200PS Flexifuel will really be the R5 and that it is not a printing error. best regards, Sascha

Hello dear motor-talker! With regard to the actual problem, please refer to this thread! KLICK ME When changing all brake pads and brake discs (after 153,000 km this is completely fine, before only changing over to the front) I could also take my pads of the foot-locking brake in view (I almost never use the foot-locking brake!): On the driver side both pads were replaced half, on the passenger side everything was fine……………….. I recommend to let all XC 90 drivers change the manual brake pads after running performances of more than 100,000km with a necessary change of brake pads and/or discs at the rear.

From about 80 km/h – depending on the wind direction – comes a sound like “blown on the comb with butterbread paper” from the dashboard area above the glove compartment. If you sit on the right side of the ARmaturenbrett with a flat hand, one from above is hearty, the noise sometimes goes away. Ventilation on / off / adjust, sliding roof on / to bring nothing. Did anyone ever have that?

Hello, would like to buy me a Volvo S60 or S80 with as good equipment as possible and 100000km down. At Mobile.de and Autoscout I found the following offer and already got in contact with the seller:http://suche.mobile.de/…/showDetails.html?… orhttp://www.autoscout24.de/Details.aspx?id=b2cdmorgm1xw The first offer has already been made, as said, the contact to the seller. It is a S60 with French and German letters. Because of the change to Germany, AU + HU has to be made. In addition, if a DEKRA location were to be visited in Berlin and what had to be done there was to be checked out. Seller says that everything is fine, just a few traces of usage on the trunk of the loading and unloading. MY QUESTION NUN: What do you think of these two offers? Come from near Rostock, so from the distance it comes to me even with Berlin. Greetings! Udo
