The hood is Aluminum. I just had the hood replaced on my 2008 after a minor fender bender. Not sure about the tail gate.

The dealer just called and they found a broken connector in the A frame pillar. They ordered the part and it should be fixed tomorrow. I wonder what would cause it to break?

This message just came up on my dash. The car is an 08 XC70 with 36000 miles on it.
SRS Airbag Service Urgent. Has anyone else had this message?
What the heck? Does this mean the...
I have the same groans and creaks with my 08 XC70. It had a very bad tailgate rattle that was finally fixed after 3 trips to the shop. The groans and creaks have not been fixed. I just turn the...
The air probably gets denser with cold weather and causes a shift in the tire pressure to trigger the sensor. You may want to inspect your tires for a nail or small leak. This might be triggering...
My car had a squeaky tailgate which turned out to be a defective latch. It was replaced and now we have no noise. The car is very quiet.
I would take it back to your dealer and have them look...
I have a 2008 as well that had such a squeaky tailgate that it was driving me crazy. My car has 13,500 miles on it. I also had a squeaky drivers side seat belt re-tractor. Every time you moved it...
This is really encouraging and I look forward to following this posting.

I'm up for another NW Gathering. September is somewhat of a busy month for us. Probably the best weekend for us the weekend of the 20th.

What do you think the fuel mileage difference will be between the T6 engine vs the present 3.2 engine in the 08 XC70?
How much of an up-charge will there be for the T6 engine?
I've driven the...

Thanks for the suggestions. I will check the mounts out, great suggestion.

I thought the tires were causing the vibration as well and have had them rotated. The vibration stayed the same.
The motor mounts seem like a good possibility. I will have them checked. ...
We have an 03 XC70 that just turned over 150,000 miles. Recently I've noticed a vibration being transmitted through the gas pedal and under my feet when I accelerate. This vibration is most...
Take a look at the Nokian line of tires. If you search this forum you will find several postings on the subject of tires.
I put the Nokians on my 03 xc70 and they have been the best tire I...
All of the above comments are the same concerns that I have about the 08 xc70 . I like the looks of the car but don't have the desire to own it yet.
Fuel mileage is a factor for me. I drive...
I would be very happy with that type of mileage. The new O8 XC70's are a very heavy car. I have an 03 xc70 with 147000 miles on it and on the freeway I am averaging 25 to 26 with it. You are...
142000 and going strong. Have done regular flushing. Mostly freeway driving.

Barry's car and mine are the same age we picked them up on the same day. My mileage is just about the same as what Barry mentions but my car has 137,000 + miles on it.
I'm really disappointed...
It was great seeing everyone again and the dinner in Victoria was very good. From the photos it looks like you had great weather and a nice time while in Tofino.
Ngoc and I enjoyed our short...
Where is Pescatores located in Victoria and what time is everyone getting together?
Morrie
Count us in for dinner as well. My wife and I will only be able to attend the dinner on Friday evening so we will not be going up island with everyone.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone....
Thanks fror the instructions.

Does anyone know how to adjust the headlights?
Morrie
My eyes must be getting bad for I'm hating the low beam angle on the headlights for my 2003 xc70.
They are so dim and only are showing a short distace in front of my car. Maybe 2 painted lines...
