Moin from Hamburg, I have had an XC60 D5 AWD Autom. with 215 hp. from 09.2012 Km performance now 69,000. The car was bought in Stuttgart by a Volvo dealer and is perfectly maintained. At 61,800km an oil change was made. When I came back from the Sweden vacation, the car kindly asked for half a liter of oil. KM stand about 64,300km. I thought, well, the Volvojungs have given quite a little gift. So a good half refilled… Then at 67,000km again this indicator, it disappeared this time a three-quarter liter in the engine. Today, at 69,000km my car shows me again, that it is from the liquid gold moose… guessing ..jepp, it wants a whole liter… My driving profile is by the way Landstr. and Deich (we have in the Hamburg Umland abundantly), highway occasionally, but no full gas steps. At a visual inspection I could not detect any damp spots on the engine or below. Have just spoken with a Volvo dealer; a consumption of about 15km, I can’t have to believe in the same standard of oil.

Hello, after three years of XC60 I am now back to the V70 in the equipment variant Black Edition and am impressed how much higher quality the V70 finally is. Sure, the XC60 is a great car and I am very, very happy to drive it, but I could never get used to the very rumbled chassis. The V70 is, despite sports suspension, much more comfortable to drive and the materials and workmanship quality are a different class. That starts already when the doors are closed, the appearance of the interior equipment up to the tailgate – really great! And the new engine… so if the on-board computer is also close and after the start-up phase the consumption also sinks, I am very happy here too.

Dear experts, this morning I had to slow down a little bit more and it happened exactly what happened when it rained before: A flood of water ran down the windshield. It’s new, however, that it ran down on the inside of the disc this time! Is this a typical weakness? Next week I already have an appointment in the workshop because of the tailgate. I’m honestly a little angry, because I bought the vehicle a week ago from a renowned Volvo center, who have the reputation that their vehicles are a bit more expensive than others, but really perfect. I could have bought another old one (if there were any). I didn’t have such problems!

Hello, just can’t find an explanation why some V60 Ocean Race instrumentation with distinctive aluminum look and others don’t. Have seen both variants on pictures and videos. According to the price list, the Ocean Race has only the “normal” instruments. Does it have anything to do with the choice of the engine? Or is there chrome with any “extra” to it? Pictures are only for illustration and are not from the V60 Ocean Race, that’s clear to me. Just about the principle of comparability.

Hello, could a proud owner of an XC60 D4 FWD and/or a V60 D4 FWD (model year 2014 with 181hp) write to me, which is a realistic consumption value for these vehicles. The consumptions listed in the documents would be far too nice to be reasonably true. Usually here is always a bit measured by reality (without light, without climate, without radio, light running tires,…)… Thank you already in advance! Greetings Mirko
