Hello
I decided to join this forum as I have gained a lot of useful information from fellow members of this site on my two Volvos. One is a 2002 S80 T6 and the other is a 2003 V70. Both nice cars for two different needs. Thanks.

Hi all! I am new here! Just bought a Volvo S80 and saved for it a long time. Hope i can get some help and information here!

Hi All

Quick message to say hello, I've just bought a 2005 V50 2.0D SE. It's my first Volvo, and initial impressions are good, except for a rattle on the drivers seat, which I will post in the V50 forum. I live in the UK, and use the car for business and leisure.

Cheers

Hello, I just joined this forum today. I hope to get more information than I can get out of the Chilton Manual for my Volvo. The manual covers too many different models o be very helpful for my V90.

It is really my wife's car, a 1998 V90 station wagon which we have had for almost three years. She loves it, and it is comfotable to drive. The biggst drawback is the lack of CUP...

Hi all. Just bought an 1996 850 auto estate cd 2.5 20v with 59,000 on the clock and have truely fallen in love. Being an actor with a very young family I can't afford one of the newer models but no matter because this car is just lovely.

I'm a true convert to the Volvo cause and look forward to getting involved on the forum.

Hi hows it going im new to the forums here and just dropping by to say hello. Im Alex from san diego. looking forward to getting info and maybe helping with a few problems

hi new to the forum ..hope u can help........850t5r brake lights dont work.....tried all the normal fixes ......fuses..bulbs etc...but i dont seem to have power at the fuse board..they just stopped working..any ideas please

Admin suggested I start here; so be it.
I'm in Guelph Ontario; have a 96 850 Turbo wagon, and know screw all about cars other than how to drive them and put gas in them. Oh, and very occasionally wash them. If anything goes wrong and lifting the hood and STARING REALLY HARD at the engine doesn't fix it, I'm screwed... hence joining here, hoping that all you good folk might supply...

Hi, I am new to the forum as a registered member. Have visited this site before, but not as a member. This is my first posting. Hope to get some advice and such from you guys.

Own an 850 GLE since 2003. Has experience good and bad days on it. Found it has served it purpose well, and still continues to serve us. Hope to see it through its end of life.

Okay, I don't actually own the Volvo 240 DL That's parked in my garage, that would be my mother's volvo. However, I work on it, so I guess I can say at least for here it would be one of "my" cars. I'm usually a BMW person, but we've had this 240DL since several months after I was born. got it in May of 1987, I believe. So she's an oldie, but still runs well, just...

Hi all.

As a new member, I just thought I'd start off here in the new member area and say hi. I'm currently not a Volvo owner, but it's time for a new car, and I'm seriously looking at buying an XC90. I've driven an SUV for the last 10 years or so, and as of late the XC90s have really struck me as being one of the most visually appealing SUVs on the market today,...

Car handles noticeably worse with Riken full-profile tires (205/55Z R16 94W) which were sold to me for my '96 850 T - (supposedly "compatible" with the Michelin low profiles which were on there before.) Am I over-reacting or is it dangerous to be driving around on these Riken tires?

Thanks very much!

Robert

Morning,
Newbie here. I have a 2002 Volvo V70.
Not the best wrench in the world but willing to learn.
I'm new to Volvo as well. Had this one since 2002 and need to figure things out with it. One thing I learned is getting it worked on is not cheap so I need to be able to do as much as I can.

Just saying Hi. I have a 2002 S40 1.9T and am looking to make a few modifications.
Have a great day.

Hi there, got a sqeaking clutch pedal, tried lubing it from inside the cabin, Any ideas?

Last thing , what oil to put in 5/40/ 10/ 40 or 15 /40. Of course it will be semi synthetic .

Thanks to you all for your vast knowledge of all things volvo !!

hello! im new with the volvo thing but very happy with my 94 850 gst. fast and fuctionable. please help me with the tech guys and gals! i will get pics up on my baby soon.

Hi I am George from Kendal UK I have a 2004 V70 D5 SE with 47000 on the Clock. I have had the car since it was 6 months old & bought it for £10000 below new price with only 3000 miles on it. I had a 2000 V70 2.4 SE petrol prior to my current V70 & decided to change to the D5 for fuel economy as i also tow a caravan many weekends through the summer month.

Hello all!!

New member

New to the forum (but a longtime lurker) - just wanted to say hello to everyone.

I have a 1995 850 Turbo - that I bought new. She's got 104,000 miles and is the best car I've ever owned. A joy to drive.
