My first question here in this area – is there really no more diesel? In the configurator (.at) I can no longer find a V60 with diesel. Since I was with a Volvo dealer today because of a spare part for my 20 year old S60 with the legendary 5 cylinder diesel, I noticed a V60 CC. And since you get older and I probably want to get out in 20 years also rather higher than with my current one, I think the next car should perhaps be a V60 CC. Only, apart from that the CC, and the SUVs are even more disproportionately expensive, I can no longer find one with diesel engine. Complete price list is also not downloadable on the website (will be available shortly), in which I could look. Who knows more exactly? I still have diesel and how long still? Oh yes, please don’t stone. I know that in DE rather the petrol fans are represented. But here in AT the tax is calculated after kW. And diesel is significantly cheaper overall (Sprit costs a similar amount, consumption is clearly lower). I have never been an infinite diesel fan, but I have been looking for the S60 years.

Considerable susceptibility to error with the VOLVO XC60 Plugin Hybrid ?
Hello Together, short to me: I’ve been looking for a used XC60 Recharge 2020/2021 for a long time. It would be my first own Volvo. I know the company through my parents, who always had a Volvo box truck during my childhood. So there is a certain emotional connection. I imagine driving the XC60 as a hybrid mainly electric in the city. We should soon get a wallbox in the garage too. Before that I telephoned with a dealer who has the XC60 as mildhybrid. He has argued very vehemently against the plugin hybrids of Volvo. Supposedly, the constantly causing problems, extra costs and computer crashes etc. In summary, he thinks that the plugin hybrids are completely underdeveloped. I already realize that he wants to sell his own car and therefore argues so. But his vehemence and drastic remarks have already made me a little unsure. Therefore, I wanted to ask here anecdotically how the experiences with the plug-in hybrids are, especially if you want to be on the road with a lot of full electric and beautiful weekends?

Problem with Spotify (Sensus)
Hello guys, in my Volvo V60 built in 2020 Spotify only loads. Don’t play anymore. Just load it. I’ve reinstalled it 2 times. Internet everything works. Account too. Everything goes without problems via Bluetooth. Maybe someone has a solution proposal. Thanks!!

Acceleration after stop ACC
Hello. I only have my XC60 for 2 days and like to use ACC or Pilot Assist. What I don’t like is that the acceleration after a stop is so slow, that you definitely have to give yourself gas, so that you don’t get any trouble with the following vehicles. Is that also so with you? Another problem are standing vehicles. The ACC does not seem to recognize these and does not slow down. With my previous X5 year 2014 this worked, even if late.

Cruise control and traffic sign recognition
Moin, I am configuring a V60 D4 together and intend to order all assistance systems in principle. My question: how does the tuning of traffic sign recognition and cruise control work for Volvo (it would be my first Volvo)? Is a recognized speed limit automatically taken into account? And much more important: what possibilities do I, as a driver, have to say to the system “always 10km/h faster than required”? Thank you for your answers!

Interior noise levels VOLVO XC60
Hello, since the end of November 21 owns a Volvo XC60 B4 AWD Inscription. Feels the generally comfortable vehicle however as quite loud, above all unrolling and chassis noises can be heard clearly. At low speeds also the diesel is very present. Once with a sound measurement app the noises recorded during the ride, the Db values are very high in my opinion. So I had values up to 79dbA at country road speed (80-100km/h) and on average 71dbA. Also in urban traffic I reach values up to 70dbA. Acoustic glazing is not installed, independently of that these values seem to me to be too high. Does anyone of you have similar experiences or considers these values too high? How reliable the app values are, remains open, however, they coincide with the feeling that the vehicle is much too loud for its premium claim. Thanks for your feedback!

Volvo V60 Bright or Black
Hello together I’m just about to configure my 2nd V60. My current is a D4 AWD, black, Inscription. In the future it will be a T6 Recharge – maybe also as XC. I’m still unreliable with the color scheme. Find black the currently best color for the V60, but constantly fluctuate between the versions Bright (with chrome) and Black (without). I wonder how the whole of the new model year without exhaust works. Has anyone already got delivered or seen this in the showroom? I know… taste thing, but I’m interested in your opinions.

Google/Volvo account data access
Hello, I’m about to get my Volvo with AAOS and wonder if you should create a new Google account only for the car, or if there are reasons to use your existing account. 1. Which apps could benefit from the existing Google account? I guess on Maps or YouTube you will have access to the stored data/favorites. Which apps still exist where the benefits might be? Is there a Gmail? 2. Is there a difference between Volvo account and Google account or do you log in to Volvo with the Google account? 3. Are different Google accounts associated with the keys? Does anyone who takes my key automatically have access to e.g. Youtube history or emails?

Automatic speed limitation
Hello and good day, I’m thinking about adding an XC60. When studying the user manual, I can’t find any indication if the automatic speed limit can be switched off. How does it look with a bicycle carrier I can only drive 80? Can I drive without speed control? MfG Helmut

Transmission flushing / Haldex / Diff
Moin, after some research I decided to have a gear flushing according to the Tim-Eckart method after approx. 90,000km. I found a workshop nearby that also offers this and received an offer. What bothers me a bit about it, they only use ATF from Fuchs (to be exact ATF Titan 6400 Fuchs). In the other threads always Ravenol is recommended – with the brand I can also do something, Fuchs I have never heard before. Haldex and Diff I wanted to let change right away, because they use the original oil from Volvo for the Haldex and FEBI/Billstein for the Diffs. So my question, can someone say what to Fuchs? This should not be a fundamental discussion, whether a flushing is now useful or not. Thank you!
