I own one.
Critical service items are: Aux belt and tensioner, transmission fluid change, AWD fluid service. These are outside of normal service items.Too, the timing belt.
I’ve replaced the radiator for a small leak. It’s been a good solid car.
Reliability has been second to none, requiring only an ABS sensor and windscreen washer pump (other than servicing and basic wear & tear stuff (brakes & tyres)).
Make sure your windshield is Volvo original and not aftermarket.
In my instance the replacement of the part in Sept this year has stopped the noise completely.
In my instance, Volvo identified the clicking to be coming from NSF Drive Shaft and they replaced part no VO36013244 axle shaft, which was the left axle. This was completed in early September this year and the clicking/flapping noise disappeared. I do still feel vibration when flooring it but I can't hear that same noise.
At the moment i drive a 2014 volvo v60 it brakes for me when going under 30 mph and something comes in front of me and I brake (too) late has lots of dings and dongs imho as I used to mainly drive pre 2006 and pre 2000 cars.
Since we know Volvo has undersized the brake pistons for their SPA vehicles, leading to issues with pulsation. Instead of upsizing the brakes, they have released several pad revisions, have the latest pads slowed the occurance of brake pulsations?
P2 steering angle sensor. Is there any way to repair one that is throwing errors randomly?
The battery is trash - if it was at 4v, the cells are either internally buckled/shorted - or the AGM is damaged and thus will not hold any charge (no capacity).
Volvos tucking their filter under the intake manifold and you can’t even get it out from the space it’s in with some serious finagling.
Had message just like that on 2010 S60 D3.
Turned out to be faulty turbocharger and a bonus of clogged DPF.
