Hello guys, until 2 weeks ago I had an average consumption of 8,6 l/100 km. Since it is colder and snow is on the road (I think at least), I have 2!!! liters more! And that, without any update was done – actually since the remote control for the SH – but allegedly there was no update made and GT did not have either – hand switch! I have to check it only when refueling, but the BC indicates and the tank clock and day km confirms this plausible. Is this normal? My friend says that 10 liters are normal with the four-wheel 163 hp diesel, but I suddenly have 11 instead of 8.6 liters !!! – such consumption jumps after 4000 km??? Would it rather have hoped that the jump in the other direction! Couldn’t there be any sensor playing crazy, or is that really the rear axle?

Hello, we enjoyed the eDrive very much during 2 test drives. Negatively, however, we noticed that the car obviously does not get the good performance on the road when driving on basses. This is certainly a result of 420Nm, front drive and high center of gravity. What does this look like for the all-wheel drive? In the Norma condition this has also 95% front, 5% rear. Does this react quickly enough when starting up or is this distributed anyway differently, so that this “front sharpening” is significantly reduced? The eDrive was otherwise great, but as BMW rear drive driver (and I enjoy the rear drive also in winter), much of this peculiarity to me however negatively.

Hello to the forum, finally it’s so far, the new V60 is there (show in other thread). What I haven’t got so far is a proper use of the MP3s via USB. Especially it’s about the use of MP3s in folders. The problem is, I scroll through the folders, go with “OK” into one of these folders, and confirm with “OK” a title. Only this is not played, but always the previously played title, for example Title-XY (played from the beginning). Even if one then goes to another folder with MP3s selects a title there, another title is played again (back to Title XY which was played last). I can only play a title in a folder, in which I go to a folder and then use the arrow keys for titles PRE/ZURUECK. In the instruction you also have to confirm the individual title with “OK”!? Does anyone have an idea for me? Furthermore I can’t use MP3s from my HTC Desire HD on it’s hard to say that it’s not a bad thing?

I have been driving an xc60 with high performance autoradio since 01/2011. My son has noticed that the title display does not run through and usually half-cut titles are displayed. On demand, I received the answer from the volvo dealer that the reference line should not go through on some “legal regulations” (not defined in more detail). I then asked the boss, who had probably never noticed this at the volvos before and wanted to inquire as well. But I did not get a satisfactory answer. If my son had not drawn my attention to this, I would probably never have noticed that, since then I have been annoyed every day.

Hi dear Volvo community, perhaps in the near future would like to tune my XC60 by Heico and have following questions to you. Drive the XC60 with the D3 engine, 163 hp, but above all not an AWD but only FWD and automatic and it is the 2.0 litre and not the older 2.4l engine. Now I wonder if the 2.0l compared to the old 2.4l engine is a completely different engine? Now the real question is whether the 2.0l D3 engine with FWD is designed for the Heicotuning on 195 hp and 460 NM, but above all also the gearbox??? With the older D3 and D5 engines it was so that the two were identical and therefore tuning on the D3 was not a problem. The next question would be whether the D3 2.0l FWD has a different transmission than the old D3 2.4l and the D5, thanks?? In short, I am worried that the small D3 2.0l and FWD as well as the automatic transmission for the more than 460 would have been designed by Heico and the other D3 and the D5.
