    I live in the UK too and have loved this snow. Just stock tyres on mine. I have also considered a set of Winter ones but have not yet found anything worth changing too.

    '04 model year Satnav upgrades

    Hi all.

    Is it possible to modify the satnav in any way?

    Can other...

    Hi, my XC did this. It stalled once and then nothing for a few weeks before happening again. Garage thought it to be a faulty injector, which they then replaced. No probs since, and that was 5 months...

    Yes, dealer fit. Although it is only fixed on by 2 Bolts. I watched the guy fit it and I reckon that it took him less than 2 minutes. £15 for 2 minutes work[sly].

    Cheaper than you might think!

    Hi Duncan,
    I have the rear skid on my XC, it cost about £35 here in the UK and about £15 to get fitted. Prices for accessories in the USA seem to be cheaper than here in the UK too.

  15. Hooray! Transmission fixed after 6 months of ownership.

    Bought my 53 plate XC70 2.4D last September and has been back and forth from the garage trying to cure the jolting from 2nd to 3rd gear. The valve seal was eventually changed but the problem came...

    Paint is NOT good!

    I once saw a customers car who had a pro paint job done on the cladding. He had scuffed a corner and had a slight knock since and it looked really ruff. Dye is the way to go![thumbup]

    2nd to 3rd is a common problem, especially when very very light acceleration in 2nd is used, so that it only just needs to change to 3rd. You may feel a jolt.
    The majority of early XC70's did'nt...
