Hi together, today at 5:30 pm on the road saw more cars with D flags and already wondered. Preferably were the BMW ́s, old Audis, etc. – but not a Volvo. Have you seen Volvos with flags or will you let them blow yourself? Today I have already posted -> XC fan between the flags 😉 Nano Nano! Torsten – the XC fan (and posted here WHEN to the opening game = non-footballer = non-footballer-XC 😉

Moin, in a current article at Spiegel-Online the topic is addressed. Interested parties are allegedly from CHINA and Russia. www.spiegel.de/auto/aktuell/0,1518,562004,00.html Greeting Stefan EDIT sees that the topic is also discussed in the thread “BMW was allegedly interested in Volvo purchase”.

Hi together, no, the picture in the appendix is not from my last Sweden holiday. It comes from April ́06 and is supposed to be a sympathy statement of the “elch drivers” (not only) for Sweden – it shows the access to a Rhöner farm (Hessen/Mitte D). Sure that we at the World Cup2006 Sweden probably “depart” (or not even *grins*) – but this is of course not a break for the dear Vikings! Land of the Volvos, Home of the Soeks – our sympathetic is on your sid e! Please post to this Fred further examples in this sense. Let’s show the Swedes how much we are connected to this part of Scandinavia. We already had many holiday pictures, a Sweden puzzle was already there in MT, who offers more? Nano Nano! Torsten – the XC fan (and prepares another Fred on the topic meeting, which also suggests into this breach! 😉

Oh wonder ! the car set-up at the end of a shock” – function on volvocars.de works again. And if I had a hundred times, when the page was not reachable, did not understand what they wanted to have changed ; this time I have at least a quiet suspicion … The Carconfigurator and my favorite browser works together. Thought only because I had changed to Opera 9.0 Beta2 the reason would have been villeicht. Under 8.5 was anyway nothing. For comparison again under old version called … also folds …. Even if it takes quite a long time for the Swedes until new technologies become timid. They come !! Or you get so much older that you don’t want the shit anymore …. Anyway: wouldn’t have thought it would work. once again surprised by VOLVO. Greetings Postman … who discovered an IPod adapter for the last “cabrio for the woman” as an accessory for a pocket money and became strongly envious. not at Mazda’s ….

Can you drive current Volvo motoes with vegetable oil? I would especially be interested in the S80/S60 and V70 machines. Especially the 2.5 liter machines. What do you have to upgrade? How much does it cost me with the cost, and how much does vegetable oil cost me, and what is all “plant oil” (food fat, sunflower oil…?) What does the conversion cost me, and afterwards the durability and mileage of the Swedes tank decrease? mfg olit

that must be a photo according to your taste. right? you know that I only rarely freshly polished my car to present the public. they wanted to give me a title for it even before some time in the spreewald. you remember? but SOOO dirty was my volvo so far never! really true. … and at the same time I had washed the car just two weeks before it and waved that it was almost as flashing as on the first day. I swoere! (my hubesche can testify that. ) you think I should have rather run through to a xc at that time??? while I was driving only roads, which were clearly listed in the rti-navi. really. admitted, they were not all asphalted =;^) well, where was I on the road? guess what. (insider are excluded from the answer of the second question, cayos.)

The SPIEGEL design classic is dedicated to this article. Between Jaguar E-Type, Citroen DS, Aston Martin DB5 and Stroke 8 there is also a Volvo: the 245 Volvo 245: The 240 series from Volvo appeared for the model year 1975. The Sweden showed clear edge how easy it is to recognize. The cars were valid, and this also expressed the apparently granite-sculpted shape, as indestructible. In 1993 the series was discontinued Ciao, Eric, who still missed the classic MINI

My R has a scent that I can hardly get out. The previous owner was probably hardcore vanilla trees unpacker. He has already ionized the car for 2 nights, but that didn’t quite give me the result that I had hoped for. Febreze I tried before, but only on the carpet, because it is not allowed to spray the leather. The same thing has already been treated with leather cleaners. Question: How can I get the smell out? The search results in a lot, but always only on Ger Do you have any tips for me? Gruss Kusi, on the last weekend also with cotton swabs the ventilation slits cleaned

Hello together, I don’t know if anyone can think of something about the following story: 1.5 years ago we bought a V70 D5 with 100T Km and were so far also super satisfied and very hopeful to be able to integrate into the row of Volvo drivers who drive their car decades… Then that: at 120Kmh in the middle of the highway cross on the middle track the engine goes off. My husband could just save himself on the side stripes. The yellow angels came immediately and were helpless. Zwa However, the ADAC people knew each other “not that way” (because Volvo remains so rare;-)), so they dragged the car to our home workshop. Everything looked like a small damage to the alternator, which my brother-in-law (KFZmeister) wanted to repair himself. So he changed the freewheel, as well as the broken flatbelt. But the Volvo still didn’t want to. So we dragged him to the Volvo workshop. There: Z We had asked a week before at this same workshop whether a new timing belt was on the line. Answer: only after 160Tkm) What I ask myself: Can this be done with the fact that 1.a whole engine is broken because of a defective freewheel on the alternator? 2.We should then get the whole engine replaced by the Volvo workshop immediately, (by the way, at a price the horrendous one is) because for everything and he is not given any warranty, OBWOHL only the head would have to be replaced? That, in short, we do not have forever time from a laiIn in terms of car, which actually never wanted to see a 3year old engine from the inside. If anyone comes up with something, be it prices for new heads, or, ALL IMPORTANT: installation tips for the head (my brother-in-law is Mercedes screwdriver) THANK YOU!

I’m currently facing a big problem. As I’m soon on the road I want to buy a “refrigerator” for the car. size, brand etc. are not important now. much more important is that I calculate with an average power consumption of about 40Watt. at 12Volt it would be about 3.5A Since I also want to park my car for a few hours, without having to bridge afterwards, I want to install a 2nd battery in the suitcase room. I already think about special circuits, e.g. that the box gets its own socket, which will only be supplied by the additional battery. now the question, can you easily install any battery? I have read something about gel batteries that may be installed in the car. my training master told me “at the time” that there is a PIN on the light engine, where you can control a relay so that the battery only charges when the engine is running. about inspirations and suggestions I would be very grateful, mfg, sergej
