Hello municipality, now it has also caught me, yesterday suddenly the yellow warning “motor maintenance required”. To the background, my five-cylinder from Mj. 17 (the old) has completed in the last years each 12-15 Tkm in the year, short but also long distance, largely trouble-free. So far no performance losses noticeable, no emergency run report. Last service 7 months ago, of course at the FVH. I asked for the oil level, which showed itself just in the red bordered field right, i.e. it could have “mistaked” “some” diesel in the engine oil. What else could come into question?? My friend can only read out the error memory on Tuesday, but complained immediately with overload and booked out for at least 2-3 weeks. In one week however, I want to reach my holiday domicile in Croatia. Who has similar experiences and can give tips ??

Hello forum community, my V70 will soon be 4 years old. I had a small ignition problem recently where it was -1°C in the morning – after pressing the start button it took much longer until the engine started. But it was only one time, otherwise the car starts without any problems. Now you often read that the car batteries end their life cycle after 4 to 5 years and you should think of a change before you get problems in the winter. My KfZ master of trust thinks this is nonsense. If you don’t get serious problems, a high quality as it is built in, so 7 years. How are your experiences, when was the car battery changed with you before it has given up the mind? I only ask here for car batteries that are not in use for start/stop, because my V70 does not have this fiction. Motor is D3, MY 2011 Greeting foodtek

Hello Together, I’m on a good way to be here soon more often, as my next car is to become an XC60 (10 years with 2 Tourans are enough for me)…. My wish configuration is now quite certain: XC60 Ocean Race, D3 manual gearbox Onyx-black Business package cargo space package parking aid front glass sliding roof seat heating rear rear camera loading edge protection electric folding exterior mirror steering wheel heater Now to my questions: – Have I still forgotten something important (doesn’t have an automatic fan, engine is enough, is still unsafe because of light package)? – Who has an overview of the current dealer’s aftermarket? I have so far several offers that move quite homogenously between 14-15%. The variant with registration as a demonstration car and take over two-three months later comes to around 20%. Intermediators like C….. Would I like to take advantage of it, since the dealer should at least be halfway close to it. EU carriers unfortunately also don’t like to be right, at least if I look at the frequently found dealers. – I have a real experience of using a vehicle like 5.

Hello Volvogemeinde, My XC60 2012 215ps diesel has a defective freewheel generator. In two weeks I have large inspection however… The local has put down the belt, since his opinion can every moment the freewheel completely goodbye and there could also become dangerous for engine (???) I is a riddle what could damage there the engine, maybe wanted to impress me. Now I got from the man a suggestion, about 650€ for a freewheel, spanner, climate belt. Everything at 3,6h a little long and expensive I find. My elk has around 150000km. What is necessary to change and what are the fair costs ? Is this hard to get the light machine down ? Can you get those up or rather from below ? Am former car electrician, maybe I should dare, but if too much fummelei at bad access. This car drives my wife and of it depends on her mood, therefore guys … … please, helps the poor Greeks ??
