  • Sliding roof “repair” 3,000,- Euro 😮

    My XC90 (2017) is currently in the Volvo workshop for tour-like maintenance. At the time of the delivery I had stated that the sliding roof causes problems. It only opens very slowly and the engine sounds very tormented. It’s a bit better to do so. My hope that maybe only a little too “lubricated” has been shattered today: According to Master, the whole sliding roof has to be exposed or expanded, since the mechanic has to reach the Bowden trains and the rail system. To do so, the sky has to be dismantled. Day task –> Costs around the 3,000,- Euro. It’s probably the Bowden trains completely “dry” and worn out, so that the mobility is no longer given. That’s probably what happens, among other things, when you use the sliding roof WENIG for details. Now I ask myself: what’s little? I’m already using it regularly in the summer. Also, general weather conditions incl. Tauwasser and triggering for such problems were eventually considered. However, the service has never been evaluated in the field?

  • Purchase advice XC90

    Hello, I’m currently looking for a used XC90: It’s my first Volvo. Before that, I only had vehicles from the VAG group. And I have been able to experience with some expensive problems… I drive with the car about 15tkm a year. Mostly then routes with 20km upwards. In the thread it’s mainly about the following topics: Is the XC90 (diesel like gasoline) otherwise rather problem-free? From other manufacturers I know such problems as oil dilution by defects piston rings, high pressure pump, injectors, DPF or rust on the car. I have read about this at the XC90 forum nothing like that at all. Or did I read it over??? here I already read as an example as a tip that absolutely the 360° camera should be on board. For me it would still be important that I have decent seats with extended leg rests, but they are not there at the moment, only at Inscription or R-Design… Do you have further recommendations? If you can not give me a few points in advance – Alex has already one thing to say and thank you for it.

  • Volvo xc90, t8 charging from the socket is not possible

    Hello, charging with the cable from the socket is suddenly not possible, the LED on the charging socket lights yellow. The charging cable is ok. While driving, the charging of the high-voltage battery is possible by display. In the factory state the error code BECM-P0AA668 and BECM-P0AA668 is read out. Supposedly the IGM module should be replaced, but the workshop can not guarantee that the error is fixed and the charging with the cable would be possible again. The KV is almost 4500 €. This is a lot of money without knowing that everything will be ok again. The IGM module (if the error is not fixed by this) can not be returned. So in the worst case I remain at the cost also with the broken car. If someone has experience with this problem with Volvo xc90, t8, year 2016. I am very grateful for every advice.

  • The XC90 and the dog

    As a large SUV, the XC90 is ideal to solve transport tasks around the family well and comfortably. In addition to a children’s group, four-legged family members can also be taken along in a variety of ways. Sometimes, the dog, or several, is also the trigger for the purchase. To keep the topic of dog, transport and XC90 well-findable, we can collect and discuss thoughts, ideas and solutions here.

  • Unlock the automatic air conditioning system in the rear permanently?

    Moin, a short question about the climate control part in the rear: This is apparently locked in the “normal operation”. Is there a possibility to unlock this permanently, so that the climate settings are constantly displayed? Had just a V90 CC with 4-zones – it was permanently unlocked. Unfortunately I found nothing in the manual…
