Hello together! In some Freds you could read that some of you have an OBD2 plug in the car to read out vehicle data via the app. E.g. water and oil temperature, regeneration cycle etc., But of course also to read out the error memory. I would like to add something like that. After a bit of research in the net I came across Carly or Pace. But there are also independent plugs, which then work with some app. At Carly and Bimmerlink have read that a lot can be done especially with BMW and VAG. What do you use this kind of data? Which live data can be displayed at Volvo and can be made with it also settings that you could not do otherwise? Thank you for your tips and recommendations! VG, Timo

In the meantime, it had several times the problem that it smelled like (diesel) exhaust in closed windows in the interior. On faster sections it does not occur, but often: – after engine start – on slow sections – on gradients. Have already experienced this in different places, so construction machine exhaust can exclude etc.. Independently of me this was also criticized on the passenger side… Maybe there is a connection here to my different exhaust pipes: left inside normal black, right inside virginally new. Does anyone have an idea? Thank you in advance.

We read and write so much about features that aren’t there or are not there yet. Here we can share the features that we look forward to. What I’m particularly looking forward to? For example: Active noise reduction “The car is equipped with an active noise reduction function that suppresses engine noise in the fitting compartment via the audio system. Microphones in the car’s roof detect disruptive noise and the audio system outputs anti-noise in order to dampen the noise.”http://support.volvocars.com/…/topic542-active-noise-reduction.aspx In combination with the large sound system… I’m curious! nik

Moin I’ve been looking eagerly, but I found nothing… I bought an XC90, BJ 2015, MJ 2016, with the Volvo Selekt Warranty Plus completed for 3 years. In October this is now running out. If I see it right, I could complete another warranty extension, right? https://www.volvocars.com/…/connection guarantee Is there any experience there? So far, the Volvo has been running without problems and was only for maintenance in the workshop, but that means no… I’m afraid that soon the problems will start when we approach the 150,000km. But we’re clear that this is always a bet. Besides the aspect of “doing or not” I’m also interested in whether you have experience with the process: Does Volvo come to me when the Selekt Plus Guarantee has expired? Or do I have to become active and drive to the dealer? Are there any other aspects that I might have overlooked? Thank you for your input! Greetings Of Things

Hello together, I am currently driving a Mercedes C class w204 from 2013 as 220 cdi. I am actually completely satisfied with it, but since only Euro 5 and we live in the greater Stuttgart area and now again the place is very limited thanks to my 1.93 m, I have taken into consideration the xc60, the v90 or v90 cc for the changes that are to be made sooner or later. I like all three models very well and I would, as the car also has to pull a 1800 kg trailer, end up with the D5 in terms of performance. I think the 90s, no matter in terms of place, the better choice, but maybe that’s also fooling. So now the question, who can tell me something about the three models, as it looks like with the place on the rear seat, also with regard to children’s seats. As I said, I am 1.93 m small 😉 The D5 would have only 2l cylinder instead of 2.2 l but for it has 80 Nm more torque in comparison to my C class. If someone has experience with this in the suspension operation at beyond 1500 kg and can report to me how the models behave good a new week.

Good morning! I’m a bit desperate for a little bit of gas. A few weeks ago I had it quite rushed to an appointment and was therefore quite fast on the road! I underestimated an unknown railway crossing so much that I flew over there like in an action movie. It didn’t listen well in the car. So fast braked, slow hit again and everything seemed to be good. The next day I noticed that from the front area (motor room?!) clogged when driving left-right. Sounds somehow like a pirate ship in the movie. Two days later the car had to be inspected anyway. The mechanic also noticed that when he drove the car into the hall. I explained to him what had happened two days before. The car was then on the stage and nothing was found now. When they had let the car down again, the noises were gone. The mechanic then said that if I had been lucky, I might have been stuck to something at the ‘jump’ or something, which now by raising it back to the right position. I would have kept it from jumping.

Hi, not a single XC90 II is available yet, but I’m still preparing for the use and optimization of the ordered T8. At my disco I installed an additional monitor for my dual-view camera of the caravan in the sun visor at the driver’s seat. It has two video inputs, then I can change between shunting view (directly down behind the trailer) and follower view. Now I will certainly want to pull the atomic bunker with the XC90 and think now, where and how I have my camera image displayed there. A replacement of the sun visor is not in question, an additional monitor is not really possible. Therefore now the question: Is there already information about the feeding of video signals into the new display of the XC90 II? Or do we have to wait until the car is on the market? Nice greeting Jürgen

Hello, I bought an XC90 car last Saturday. The dealer is 400km away because there is no vehicle with suitable equipment in my area. Having arrived at home, I noticed defects that were not communicated to me and now the dealer is cross-checking the regulation. Can you please take a look at the pictures and tell me your assessment? According to the dealer it is quite normal that the rear apron stands at one side so far. For comparison I took a picture of the left side and the right side. He offers me a refund of 300€ for the rear apron and the hole in the rear seat cover. Thank you!

Moin. My fat guy has now been on display for oil level service and there is too much oil in the middle of the screen. I’ve been getting the vehicle since May this year and with new service and since then I haven’t got the hood up either. I’ve been driving a lot of short distances since that time too. In two workshops I got the answer that has to be checked although the problem is known. One workshop doesn’t tell me how to drive if possible and the other says that I can’t drive any more because there’s no oil missing. That contradicts and then no error would be reported or? I read that you can suck some oil and then it would be good. Sometimes the display disappears and the next day it’s back. How are your experiences? Nice weekend from the north.

Hello dear XC90 driver and Volvo friends, after 10 years BMW X5 3 years ago I decided for an XC90 2 D5. He is now about 3 1/4 driving old. By November 2020 everything was good and I was satisfied. During the inspections no complaints, little tire wear etc. but then suddenly, seat heating at the driver’s seat is no longer possible, operation on the steering wheel for the audio control is no longer possible and the buckle belt on the driver’s side is worn out at the buckle. At the inspection in December I then noted all this. Result: Necessity of a second appointment for analysis. Result of second appointment: – electric short circuit in the control unit or seat heater. Does therefore also the broken operation on the steering wheel come therefore? Statement dealer: It can be broken times something! ?? For fast 2000€ for a car with a new price of approx. 80.000€, age of 3 years and approx. 46,000Km. … well of course! – culant request at Volvo. Volvo would take over 30% if the dealer takes over also 30%… but he does not make it all the trouble?
