Hello guys!I’m actually a Golf 2 driver.But I’ve been thinking about buying a VOLVO for a while,because I have a small family (woman with daughter 1 year and 4 months)and soon(October)our second child.There are only 2 brands in which I really feel comfortable and safe.That’s just Audi and VOLVO.As far as I know all 5 cylinder engines at VOLVO come from Audi,or?So,there’s a swing between the current V50 or the current XC60.And then only with the 5 Zylind. he or as a DrivE model. So, I’m interested in the following:1)Are the 5 cylinder engines from the current models all from Audi?2)What are these engines for the DrivE models? Thank you very much in advance for your nice answers…..

Volvo 5zyl. TDI vs. D5 ?
Hello the question has been dealt with several times – I think there are different opinions here. I have my own picture on the subject – I have the third TDI and the first D5. not to forget the development alone (an Austrian named Ferdinand Piëch was supposed to be in charge) of an audio engine, which is then used in many vehicles – the sale in the year as many tdi engines as volvo has not been in almost 10 years to date. Therefore, a reaction to possible design errors at VAG should be fast. Furthermore, there is the tdi for so long that there are some beyond the 200/300 thousand mark driving. accordingly, there should be a lot more information about tdi. nevertheless, I would like to ask here a basic question about the discussion – which is now the better motor ? the question was put with the proposition – there are some definitions in relation to better running rest ? consumption ? running speed ng… I’m curious to say hello

Dispute of the Volvo Forum
Hello together Not meant to be serious… … well somehow a little I would like to nominate the following phrases for the unworded award at Motor-Talk in the Volvo forum with all the Unterforen: – … a premium brand unworthy… – … an imposition in this price range … – … must not happen with a car for over *amount* … I ask for further suggestions. Quite honestly… I feel these phrases as unnecessary yes even disturbing. If something does not work I don’t care if it is Premium is or is not, I don’t care if it was cheap or not, that must not be the claim for a fault-free car that it is premium or expensive. We all would like a fault-free car… ***BREAKING NEWS*** …is not available. Since these and other phrases now occur regularly, every day in the posts in this forum, I thought you would have your own award/contribution and maybe we will collect some more and then a winner or maybe it’s auc h a loser. Have fun with the not very serious nominating. lg AclivI

Real experiences with the 180 km/h throttle – please without a new question of meaning!
Since the official limit thread is still closed, I try it again: is there already experience with throttled vehicles? Does the officially almost 400 hp of the T8 drive you against a wall when accelerating at 180 felt or is the acceleration capacity already reduced at 160, so that it can run out gently at 180? And yes, I know of course that this is not a “throttling”, but a “sicherung”. *G*

VIDA & DICE on Google Maps
I have created a map with Google Maps, you can enter where you live, if you are ready to provide your VIDA installation or your DICE to others. Of course, it should be enough if the location information shows only the local center – as long as the username is selected by the forum as name or a contact possibility is entered. Entries are UNMODERED! I count on reasonable handling of the map Otherwise you can delete it again. Well guess how this works For people with hard & software, the Volvo logo is provided, for those who only have the software running the lettering.Click on entry 1. Click on category (VIDA & DICE or VIDA) 2. Select position and zoom in 3. Click on the icon that looks like a flipped drop 4. Click on position 5. Edit entry (name, comments) This is not my first card. Among other things, I run one for photographers with over 500 entries. But it depends on how reasonable the users deal with it. Good luck. The map: VIDA & Dice on Google Maps This is what it looks like when it works: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zekwJpU6z8fM.k5Np1K-Uqd28

VDASH as VIDA – alternative
Hello, I just recently came across VDASH, a very powerful tool, which was probably created by the providers (D5T5 from Prague) in order to activate / deactivate various functions in the Volvo by (chargeable) playing of software. In addition, VDASH also has free functions, such as the readout of errors (with Volvo error code) and the reset of the maintenance indicator. Since the handling with VIDA is not quite unproblematic, it would be out of I think it’s a real alternative to VIDA. What experiences have you had so far with VDASH? What is also very interesting to me is the business model. It seems to be legal – at least you get an invoice with a tax number and expulsion of the tax. Does anyone know how this works? Get the software directly from the VOLVO server in Torslanda and sell it very much cheaper? (according to D5T5 to about one third of what the contract workshop requires) In some countries there is already a high density of suppliers (e.g. the Netherlands). In Germany, however, there is not yet a single workshop that offers this. It is obvious that there are legal reasons for this. Gruss P.S.: I just saw that there are now also two suppliers in D.

Dates for maintenance / inspection
We get our xc40 in the Christmas week. Then the service/the inspection has to be made exactly after 365 days again in the Christmas time, so that the guarantee is secured? (If you change the date of a brand from Asia by a very short time, is out of the guarantee). Or can our dealer change the date for the inspection by approx. 2 months in the board system. (Once in the life of each vehicle you can also have the HU appointment redefined.) Thank you for an info.
