Hello , have an XC 70 AWD D5: the following problems exist there…who has ideas where to start my search: 1) were traveling 2007 and 2008 with caravans in Croatia, on every longer mountain he became regularly too warm, so up to 3/4 of the display, on normal track he then went back quickly to the normal area over , or with the help of the heating inactivation it was under control… ..but only with caravan, otherwise never occurred 2) now for about 6 months he consumes water, a uf 1000km so far 1 liter – water is nothing in the oil – despite the pressure at the dealer to detect no exit up to 3 bar – machine runs flawlessly, no jerking or the like, according to. dealer can not get water into the combustion room, would immediately jerk etc. the machine would be oversensitive So big question where is the water ???? Has DA JEMAND IDEEN, or could it be the head gasket … could it burn through the heater, there must also a heat exchanger sitting, could that be ??? About help I would be grateful

Renault interested in Volvo again?
What do they say about it? I’m not surprised. Nissan doesn’t really make a lot of money in Europe with expensive cars and Renault’s declared goal of passing the S80 in Germany with the Vel Satis in the registration numbers has also failed.

Tuned moose – just horrible
Hello Volvianer, a few pictures of “done” and “spoiler-hanging” elks found on the Internet. I find it greyeeeeeeeeeeeeenhaft, abominable and tasteless. Here a C 70, totally horny Volvo 174

THE worst car I’ve ever had was
New theme, new fun! Here I hope that we won’t find the name Volvo too often – as far as slight OT danger is concerned. I’m interested in who calls what the worst box he’s ever owned and driven – and why? Ring free! Picture chief, you have a break with your eighth – you don’t want to spoil the fun. I’ll shut up myself too, because I would have to say 144 otherwise… lG Richard

Volvo Germany -> Please comment on seawater suitability! 😉
Ladies and gentlemen, I’m driving a Volvo and I don’t just feel comfortable in the car, no, I’m also having fun with and on the vehicle. It doesn’t have to be a matter of course nowadays, but as a multi-driver, I’m also committed to the luxury of my car. Now I’m facing a small, self-made problem with my vehicle and ask for your valuable information. It’s about your advertising for the XC70 on your website (see picture in the appendix), more precisely about the thing that This is how you apply for a product property that hardly anyone uses, but which remains “hanging” in the back of the mind of a Volvo XC driver. This is exactly what I would have offered this summer, but which I did not use. It turned out, because I only heard in a survey among other drivers in the tenor that this would be the safe – albeit slow – death for every car. Now, of course, I’m glad not to be in danger there. or are the expected damage to the body so long that these are no longer guaranteed by VOLVO? Or better yet, the Volvo XCs can withstand this burden without any problems? Please inform me now what is the state of the art: Can I chauffeur my XC through the water on the sea beach in the surf, or should I leave my fingers behind? As a responsible driver, I do not do this for the sake of the environment every day and it remains a (one time?) exception, of course, but is not part of my question and please not your answer. Specifically: Does the XC (or another Volvo) suffer more than by normal use under such a saltwater treatment? Are rust damage not expected earlier than in normal driving mode? Volvo assumes the full warranty in the event of a possible saltwater damage to chassis, Bodywork or any other part of the vehicle? Or do you advise not to follow your advertising example? Best regards Torsten – the XC fan (and here are the answers of my buddies to this question 😉

Heating capacity Lacetti
Hello, I wanted to ask if it’s normal with Lacetti, which he doesn’t really heat? It’s cold outside at the moment, but still I find it very strange, that my Lacetti hardly gets warm. The engine temperature always stays below 90°C. Mostly about the first stroke. I drove about 70km overland this morning. Outside temperature leveled between -11 to -13°C. The thermostat was all the time at the highest level with blower stage 4. Had thick jacket u I felt like it was about 10-12°C in the interior (perhaps even colder, but definitely not warmer). I’ve had several cars and I’ve never had anything like that before. At the temperatures, you almost don’t dare drive longer distances. I have a 1.8 engine with gas system.

Epica on-board computer / standing light or parking light
Hello everybody, I’ve got an Epica 2.0 LT Diesel. EZ 3/2007. Two things seem funny to me, in which the operating instructions are not really helpful: 1. Onboard computer Is it normal that the onboard computer switches again and again to the basic setting 0 or 10l average consumption. The consumption is then calculated again according to the travel time and behavior? 2. Standlight Is there no permanent standlight or parking light with the Americans? Will the light last at the latest after the ignition key has been pulled out automatically. There is also no special switch position when pulling the ignition key? Thank you for your help.

Aveo 1.2 LS LPG: Hardened valves / head ex works?
Hello together, I have a big problem with my Aveo 1.2 LS. I bought the vehicle in February 2009 (new), now 50,000 km and a permanent consumption of 12 to 14l /100km. In addition, the valve game has changed. Everything despite permanent 120-130 km/h on always long highway routes (Vieelfahrer ). I had increased the car at the time because I was assured that the exhausting with gas (from the Chevy dealer) like from factory with hardened Valves or a completely hardened head is carried out. Since the valve play is adjusted, it can be assumed that this did not happen Now to the question: Does anyone possibly have “documents” / sources about the use of hardened engine parts for gas operation? These would be enormously important for the detection! Thank you in advance and many greetings J.

SURVEY: Spark – yes or no?
Hello Chevrolet Freaks 🙂 Now that my ancient Escort is going into recovery in the next few days, the consideration is whether and if so which car the successor should be. I don’t drive much. If I drive, then actually only inner-city. Maybe once a month another distance up to about 200 km back and forth, but more than that. What I want is a great car, a comfortable car … a reliable, stable car. I looked at Spark Plus …. What do you think about the Spark in general? What are the problems/weaknesses? How fast does the part really drive? Is the Spark what a 1.85m big person? How do you see the Spark compared to the Clio Campus or Fiat Panda? Would I be very happy if you would just write something about my questions. Would certainly help me with my decision.

DINO sport air filter experiences
Hello to each other, for my 2004 Mini One 1.6l 90PS I ordered a sports air filter with TÜV at Ebay for 25€.http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?… The K&N kit costs 150€….. Installation is no problem but can it disassemble the engine? Everyone says no, only that I lose performance but I don’t care… I’m more afraid about the air volume meter or something? What do you say? Experiences Greeting
