  • Used purchase with 115T Km, XC70 Built. 2014 D4

    Hello together, 2 years ago have bought an XC70 D4 AWD Automatik Bj. 2015 with 115T Km from first owner (is driven per year almost 60T Km). Everything was fine, only sometimes the gearbox blows out when changing from D to R or R to D – sometimes but also very delicate – no matter whether I change slowly or quickly. Can’t recognize a dependency on long service life or recently driven for a long time, according to friendly (but I don’t trust) is also the latest software on it. N and my suspicion is that the predecessor took it quite a bit (but I didn’t hear anything else that makes me suspect it) or often pulled it under a lot of weight (I attached two pictures of the AHK – can you deduce that from it?). Anyway: can you do something there? Does the coupling mean to exchange something big? Thank you in advance!

  • Cylinder head gasket V70 RAWD defective

    With my V70 R AWD automatic the cylinder head gasket has gone off. The car has just 90000 km down. The cooling water temperature was always middle, no deviation to ofen, even with longer motorway rides. In addition, the R has an oil cooler. Does anyone have a similar experience with the R? The gasket is normally only hops when the engine gets too hot? The whole thing is quite inexplicable to me, especially with the Km performance.

  • Q: wrong torque for rims

    Hello! I have a short question… In my last tyre purchase, the dealer probably put on the rims with the usual 140Nm at Volvo… That would have been great, if I had had original Volvo alloy rims (for the winter tyres it would have been right… )… Now my summer alus only want to be attracted with 110Nm! So now the first question: does this damage the rims?! And the second question: should I solve the wheel nuts again and with 1 10Nm, or should I leave it at 140Nm?! Thank you for your answers in advance! Bye, Dirk

  • Does the XC60 D4 VEA engine have a diesel particulate filter problem ? NO!

    Moin Moin, we still have to buy a new car. The XC 60 is a short choice. It has to be a diesel for various reasons. Driving profile: 2 x daily 18 km at the piece of highway 2 x weekly 50 km at the piece of daily rides in a small town up to 3 km occasionally motorway rides > 50 km annual runtime approx.18000 km With the previous vehicle there have been problems with the diesel particle filter, since this does not completely pass through the cleaning processes The filter had to be burned within 130000 km 2 x manually. But this can also have had to do with the vehicle itself, because various sensors were already defective. Is the XC60 with the VEA engine basically what the particle filter is about, without problems or has to be paid attention to the driving profile? Would be nice if positive, as well as negative experiences with details were reported here. The manufacturers / sellers always say: No problem… …..

  • The moose in a sharp fur or, The winter and my Volvo. 2 brothers meet again

    Hello Elkgemeinde. After having snowed with us now, I had to introduce my S 80 Premium A with his brother to the snow Oh, as I always admire it. My Volvo does not freeze in winter, always comes from the spot or when a BMW or Mercedes gives up the spirit and then the envious looks of the people. The only thing that always bothered me was when I lay down a drift and I make the DSTC, I always noticed that it intervenes. r also goes very well with a front drive Nice again and again how good the bi-xenon from Volvo is! After numerous drifts and fun driving I say now really proud Volvo for life! Here my S 80 in the wonderful beautiful snow! Greetings from Switzerland

  • Omega Mv6 has starting problems

    Moin! In April my MV6 had start problems. After the diagnosis in the workshop there was a new fuel pump. After I was introduced by the ADAC Easter, the KWS was changed. Four weeks later the same phenomenon (of course Sundays at the bakery). After the nice man from the ADAC had worked off his list (loose cable, plug; diagnostic device etc., he opened the maintenance cover in the trunk and when starting with the hammer handle (!) sloped on the petrol pump. Result: Car ran! After the new petrol pump was renewed on guarantee, it worked again five start operations. Since now the affordable expert world seems at the end of their Latin, maybe you have one or more ideas about what my Omi has fallen ill? (He won’t have his days?) Thank you in advance Marder Mueller

  • Can anyone forbid me from using roof beams for small boats?

    Hello together, I intend to build a railing carrier myself for a small light fishing boat of approx. 2.5m and 40 kilos of weight, which fits on the railing of the Omega B Caravan. So basically two simple struts, which go from the left to the right railing part, which I can clamp to the railing and then back up to my boat. Actually, as you can buy it, just adjusted to the boat. Only, can I use it so easily or is there only a purchased one with ABE? A over muchleich also someone has something suitable at home in the basement….should not be expensive and offer an edition of at least 1.3 m…..the boat itself has 1.2 m

  • XC90 MJ 2012: Rear Seat Entertainment: Regional code: “Wrong Region”

    Servus municipality 🙂 I hope for the help of the cracks here in the forum, my dealer does not know any advice, the search only resulted in hits from the year 2007 – but since then, to my knowledge, the technology has changed already twice. The following problem: I was replaced as part of the guarantee of the DVD player of the RSE, because after a short operating time it ran hot again and then shut down automatically. In the new player I get now after reading any DVD (are all previously in the old Pl ayer ran without problems) the message “Wrong Region”. I suspect an exchange device that was intended for a market that does not match the regional code “2” (Europe, Japan, Middle East, South Africa) usual in Germany. Now I have read during research on the net that the code can be reprogrammed – but that has to be done by the dealer / an authorized workshop; there does not seem to be any freely available instructions on the net? My dealer has according to settings In the “Media Menu” (remote control) run a demo DVD from Land Rover that worked; the own DVDs didn’t. Does anyone have good advice for me? Change dealers, change players, change brands, change lives I include as an option – but maybe there is a simpler way? For good tips I am very grateful! Greetings from Munich Lutz P.S.: It should go on holiday on Thursday, with the little one (just five) on the back bench. And if possible with working DVD player …
