Hello ! I have experienced something today, which may not necessarily be dramatic but nevertheless very serious. Here are the facts: Had agreed for today an appointment for the 50K inspection, with the request to get a rental/test car, because I have pulled V70R and XC90 into the short choice, but both have not yet “experienced”. Service acceptance etc. as always, no objection to it. Then comes the hammer, the service staff tells me that they have a rental car specially for me from a r car rental has been brought. I think briefly about which car rental Volvos has, but I don’t have one. Don’t have to, because it’s a Toyota Corolla! Something else was not there and all the test cars are on the road or in other branches. Since I’m not so fit in the morning, I don’t have a lot of it right away! When I picked up mine again, I felt my displeasure again, which was of course very sorry, but was not too changeable. I’m still very happy about the passing of the Verkaeufer, which I didn’t sell the V70. He didn’t feel very sorry for his arrogant “Premium” way either. He probably thought “I showed it to him now. I didn’t buy a V70 at first, but then want to test XC90.” And turns to another customer who wants to take a V50 to the test! (By the way, when I pick up the car a lot of Volvos with “VC” in the license mark!) In the parking lot) I have paid, with the indication that I will then – although I am really very satisfied with the service – look for another workshop, if a seller is not able to handle a usefully with a potential customer. Even if you don’t buy then it can still fit the next time. So I have actually experienced it so far with my car caucus. The only annoying is that within a radius of approx. 60 km no other car is available. And because of this arrogant, nice seller, I don’t want to let myself be spoiled by the joy of Volvos. What do you think? What would you do? I would like to write a complaint letter to the management of the group, since I have heard from others who were “distributed” with the intention of Volvo! And I think that the money earned with service is also good money, right?

Hello everyone I’d be interested in how you’re outing your home as Volvo fans. Do you have Volvo pictures hung up in the good room, a model collection in the showcase or even a whole hobby room full of Volvos? How does your better half stand for your Volvo fanaticism? Look forward to every answer. Greetings from Switzerland

Hello! I have to order soon an XC90 with Inscription equipment, but I have not yet taken place in the “new” seats. Have been made with the seats strong changes or only the leather type changed.. I have only heard they should offer better side support and now I do not know if the seats are sporty and bone hard or rather nice soft, as with the EXE seats … I think so I never come to the purchase *heul* Your shell animal I thought e there so on this color

Hello together the missing MP3 capability of the Volvo radios as well as the lack of suitable retrofitting solutions has been and is here in the individual subforums already extensively lamented. Well another question: does MP3 or MP3s recorded audio CDs make sense in Premium Sound at all? Is the information left in the MP3 still sufficient to mix convincing Dolby PL II sound from the stereo signal? I tried out various audio CDs from MP3 myself and d I’m not sure. Especially with only 128kbps coded MP3s the stereo information is lost a bit with the “space sound”. With 192kbps the whole thing sounds much better. You always say that you can hear the difference between MP3 and “real” audio CD quality on a good system (I’ve never compared this myself so directly). Do you also think that this difference is reinforced by the Dolby ProLogic II mixing?

For those who don’t follow the engine press or throw away the ADAC engine world unread or otherwise are not up to date, a few snippets from Stefan’s Winter Fun and Winter Help Thread: Quote: Original written by stefan-v70 Quote: Original written by bkhenkel Quote: Original written by stefan-v70 And if I think about it quite well, it makes sense if you don’t drive a company car. Especially in the coming viewing conditions. age, where do you get those for the fewest penunces and on which TÜV/GS numbers is to be paid attention by the legislator. Is two for Italy? CU BK, which nevertheless does not put a tow bar in the car, I also have only front drive Do I actually have a tow rope???

… and that with very well-founded expertise Here is a link to their homepage. Below you can see the text passage in question. The 2.7-litre V6, known from Peugeot 607, Volvo and Jaguar, has a soot filter and the diesel-typical starting weakness. Or does the AB have a visional ability and is only a few months ahead of us?

yes, at the turning wheel of the BC. then I got stunned with a value (see picture), sure, driving a lot inside, but equal so much? we in the forum are a fan-community, but at such a glance certainly also a mourning community. apart from the V8 big drivers this is certainly for no adequate consumption. however, since I was already friendly and have the new (v70 d5) in almost dry cloths, the whole thing is only bad, not very bad anymore. if you take a small swollen swollen

Hello, we used the long weekend to make a short trip to Holland. Saturday night on the way back, one noticed behind the border,the Germany seems to be burning,everything was under mist and strong smoke, made it really hard for you to breathe! We counted 75 Easter fires visible from the AB on just under 80 kilomths,which burned noticeably close to the highway! At first we found all this quite funny,and my OHL was forced to look if after passing by The Premium Airfilter failed miserably, a new scandal But what really noticed, that only 5 -10″Osterfire” people were standing and celebrating. – May the Easter fire be so abused to burn tons of wood, or is it even intended to?! Somehow this no longer fits into the current fine dust discussions, in Switzerland the burning is stopped in the fireplace, and we cut so clean “Germans” really crowd of fine dust and Co2 into the environment.- I absolutely don’t get it.- Greeting Martin

Oh, and what else as I mentioned before I added Volvo but somehow the alarm doesn’t want to go on like this. Where do you have to look or do it on your own. How does the interior monitoring work?
