Still planned: R-design package outside, stand heating, DVD player in the headrests, 19″ summer beeps, winter rims Merac (Also if someone wants to change, the tires are still super )

Hello dear Volvo community! For a long time I have wanted to drive Volvo. In particular it is about the XC60. Now there is a purchase in the room. The budget is relatively limited (about 25t), for example a Korean new SUV comes into question or just a used XC60 (bsow from Bj 2012/120000km). Now for me, of course, the question arises, what you have to pay attention to with used XC60 so. – Are there any flaws? – Are there any necessary repairs or service that are ideally already done or with which to expect? – Does Volvo have access to the toilet for any vintage? Would I be very happy about help, maybe I will soon be a real member Thank you!

After a good time, we had a really great holiday in the south and the V70 brought us great back and forth, good 1400km alone the drive! And on the way back, we had to get rid of him in Italy shortly before Brenner and we had to resort to the adac. I had already feared that this funny noise of the last 2-3 days doesn’t promise anything good. But since I didn’t otherwise hear a ticking from the engine and did not necessarily want to go to a workshop so shortly before return, I thought that will be the fan the extra turned up at the hot temperatures. Well, classic case of think well!! After a good 300km red warning light and hint on “generator urgent maintenance ” nebst red battery!! Oh!! That didn’t look good, so I should try it out of the next Volvo dealer in Trento and clear, it was close to 18:00, so no master left in the house. The seller who was still out then took a friendly look at the problem and analyzed the whole night, he said yes to make it home, as long as the engine started without problems, so the battery started to give itself!

Hello, since my retirement, belong to the Wenig drivers, only 65,000 Km on the clock. I let myself play the Service 2.0 in the fall of 2014 and since then only problems. The built-in phone often does not work, demands after the Sim card, although this is inside and enough money on it. Can only lead to a conversation from time to time, or accept. Also no call forwarding on “non-reach”, or “occupied” on my iPhone. The screen return camera ( Navi) drives without inserted “R” after ignition position “I” or “II” already out and does not drive on independently at position “D”, only at position 0. The Navi targets as well as the addresses stored in the phone are gone. My Volvo dealer postal code 91583 always says only, looker once. Have already sent an email to Volvo Cologne with the result that you sent my complaint after postal code 91583 and they have regretted that I have already had unresponsions since service 2.0. I should contact my dealer. Yes, was a very great help, if I would have been able to tell a cow of success, but I should have been able to write to say about it successfully.

The Geartronic of my S80 D5 AWD (MJ 2011, 120.000km) just makes me despair. The following symptoms occur: sporadic jerking when switching automatically from the 3rd to the 2nd gear. Sporadic intensive jerking when changing the drive stage from “Neutral” to “Drive”. The strange thing is that this jerking occurs only sporadicly and not permanently again. It comes to me especially when the engine and transmission are warm. The following works have already been done by the Volvo contractor: error memory read out (no errors) Complete transmission flushing. Current SW played out. Unfortunately no improvement. Now I have a date for calibration of the GT. Supposedly, this is a huge effort. Does anyone have experience with it? Did someone have the same symptoms on his 6 gear GT? Thank you for your help. LG, Nordisk.

Hello dear Volvo community, since I change my vehicles on average every four years (sh. signature), I have been looking for a successor for my 320i touring for a long time. Due to the company philosophy of Volvo, the brand is quite likeable and is on top of my note. I have already tested the V 70 several times. Since I was (still) somewhat disturbed by the size and durability, yesterday a test drive with a V 60 D3 momentum from 2011 (163 hp automatic) was available. I would like to report on the comparison of both vehicles and then get rid of a question. Pro BMW: Pro Volvo: Undecisive: Conclusion: The V 60 is a nice car. However, it did not immediately “Klick”. I then felt more comfortable in the BMW. But after the first hard blows in the back of this feeling again. If I want to change the car next year, the 3 model is still not in the budget (where I also have to test the ride comfort first. But it should be better in the F31 than in the E91). From the V 60, however, if I want to be able to make a replacement with the V?

Moin dear elk community. At the moment, I am a bit bored, as my elk ( My 17, XC60 T5 ) has to feel that most of the time leads a rather stress-free car life and therefore my thoughts are currently drifting towards the service that is about 2 months ahead. Means in plain language: Since I am mainly travelling with a company car, our elk is predominantly my wife’s wife for occasional shopping or other smaller tours and will probably not even scratch at the 6000 km annual running performance. The car is now 2 years old but he had been on a car yard for a year ago and again got a service with oil change before delivery in February of this year. So it is almost, at least seen for me, still relatively a new vehicle. I would really be interested in how you would approach the prescribed annual Volvo service at such a low annual running performance in my place? But considering the fact, perhaps a possible warranty or culant regulation only in the case of cases, I would be grateful for no need for a service or for it.

Since the beginning of the year I have been very satisfied with the car and I was surprised that Volvo is building such bad engines. the engine felt like a 1.8 liter with max. 150 hp, was – especially in urban traffic – extremely nagelig (there were my Mercedes diesels very quiet even in the past..) and loud, consumption around the 10 liters at a lot of highway. then after 60 TKM a new engine, because the old one was torn. so far, so bad. I felt that I had to torture myself still 2 years, until I can buy a BMW again. now I have a new engine in it for a week and 1.5 TKM and the car seems to be a completely different one: consumption (minus 2 liters!) finally all 205 horses on board is clearly quieter he has also become asking me now whether the previous engine was a negative breaker or a new development was installed. how do your D5 Diesel run like this?

so – my V60 I get in the middle of the winter and as standard equipped with summer tires (which is a nonsense – can not let me drive with it at all from the yard). Well – so still have to order a set of winter pushes. I tend to the Michelin A4,m.E. one of the best tires and strangely the cheapest offer of Volvo. There are certainly more here before this question – what did you decide?

Hello together, actually I would like to buy a new S80 AWD diesel with HEICO chip for the next few days. I had long thought if I should buy a Volvo at all (because of the sale to the Chinese company). But the new Audi A8 won’t come out until summer and BMW and Benz are not really cars for me. Now I have heard from an acquaintance that there is a new facelifting at the S80 after the factory holidays in summer. Does anyone know anything closer to this?
