Hello! I stumbled quite “freshly” here looking for news about the XC90. have ordered me last Thursday a premium, which is supposed to be delivered on May 19th and where I still have until April 10th the option to change equipment details like color and engine etc.. But now that I have read here about the dramatic delivery situation, I do not know if the (nice) seller only wanted to have me at the Angel….and the XC comes much later. Besides, I want to make myself with your help, whether the choice of the D5 was just a seizure of “geiz-ist-geil” madness or reasonable. I want to try the eroticism of fuel saving….after 4 Grand Cherokee, all V8 and no one under 16 liters….or will I despair and annoy myself? Then maybe I take the T2,5….stöhn… Otherwise I find the contributions here most helpful and “growing”, in so many a roadster forum was taken about ‘just 250’.

who has experience with Volvo all-wheel in winter?
It has been said that with our Volvo all-wheel (especially XC70/XC90) we can easily rush through field, forest and meadow paths (peel groups and mud trails you prefer to leave away), but what does it look like in winter with snow? Volvo all-wheel looks like, if on the front wheels slip, then the rear wheels turn on. Up and in the plain even in loose snow there are hardly any problems (provided for proper tyres) – but downhill, there are at most brakes but no slip, so also little all-wheel effect (manually you can’t lock anything). Does someone have experience with his Volvo all-wheel in the snow? With us in the lowlands there are hardly any, but one would like to go to the mountains once in the winter holidays. ros

Softwareuopdates for MJ2016
Good morning together, We have bought a used XC90 Momentum D5 Momentum from November 2015 (MJ16), which we will receive next week. I’ll read a lot of newer XC90 which are now running on Android. As far as I can see up to now, however, it is still unclear to me how exactly this works for my MJ. I read a lot of newer XC90 which is now running on Android. As far as I am looking at it up to now, however, my system has an older (proprietary!?) system. Therefore, the question of how I can make which updates? Or differently asked: Which types of updates can I install myself and for which I have to become a dealer? Because the older system has an OTA update possibility – as far as I have reviewed it up to now. Does this only concern the infotainment unit? Or also the complete vehicle software? And how can I get navigation card updates? Thank you for your support. VG, mabuchho

Travel book / Driving Journal under AAOS
Hello, does someone know how to get the journey book (App Name Driving Journal) turned on? I’ve released the location data, I’m logged in with the Volvo ID on the system but there’s always the message that the journey book has to be turned on under “Data Protection > Volvo Privacy Settings > Travel Book”. However, there is no menu item Travel Book. The following entries are available and these are activated as follows: Data Protection for Active Safety (ASDR) > FROM App Volvo Cars > A Connected Safety > A Vehicle Data Analysis > A Manual says you should also see an entry in the app under “Profi” . But even here there is nothing to find. Generally, the board/trip computer is more than meagre… also the app shows nothing at all, such as last trip, KM stand, consumption etc. This works better with other manufacturers. Does that have to be unlocked by Volvo? Greeting Holger

XC60 D5 no power when accelerating
Hello guys, My XC60 has on the last three rides repeatedly it problem that he from a slow rolling mops at about 1000 to 1500 u, turns of the gas lever simply NO Kraf thatte. It is a 2011 D5 with Heico Leistngsincrease. So the car has accelerated quite slowly, but despite full throttle only very slowly. Also take short gas away and then again full throttle did not help. After about 20 seconds the spook had disappeared again – and everything was normal again. The car was warmed up both times. Someone an idea?

Volvo and Apple iPod
Hello, I’m looking at an interesting press release. In 2005 all of Volvo’s US models will be equipped with an Apple iPod port. Here’s the link to the press release:http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2005/jan/11volvo.html Sounds somehow good, although I have the impression that the solution for S40, V50 and XC90 is an iTrip-like solution. Hopefully the models will be equipped with it in Europe in the future. Gruss Misch

Volvo XC60 – MJ2012 – Flamenco Red available again?
Two months ago, I was informed by my dealer that the colour Flamenco Red was no longer available – after that I chose a replacement color “tooth-enchanting”. According to a message from Volvocars on their main page in the press area, Flamenco Red Metallic would be available again. Who of you has access to the ordering system and could check for me if that is so? The ID of the Volvo article reads: 38313

Collision warner warns for no reason!
Hello municipality, I am recently also proud owner of an XC60, among other things with Collision Warner. After already the radar had a hardware defect and was replaced, I have a problem with the C-Warner. The following happens: on a normal journey (city or country) without previous traffic he reports once loudly and brightly flashing, that I find myself shortly before the impact…..but is not so, because no car drives in front of me. The problem is, however, that you get on the brake for a while, which again the following traffic does not find funny at all. Isn’t it safe. Has someone perhaps already had the same problem?

Which color which model? black/white… D3 AWD yes or no?
Hello everyone, I finally decided! An XC 60 is supposed to be a real dream! now I’m just not clear about the color, either saphir black so classic or chic in white. I’m torn back and forth! What do you think? I know it’s smart but nevertheless I ask you. The second question that concerns me is AWD yes or no. what are the before and after?
