Anyone find one? How did it turn out? I'm considering the same.
I am running 235/50R-18 PIRELLI CINTURATO P7 ALL SEASON PLUS tires on the same exact car as yours. I have had them on the car for a year. To me, they deliver a smooth relatively quiet ride and...
A Volvo dealer in my area offers a Valvoline-branded transmission fluid change service. My understanding is that this involves the use of a dedicated bit of equipment furnished by Valvoline and the...
Exhaust manifold is correct! Gorj wins the prize. Bad news is dealer will need to keep the car for a few days. Some engine disassembly will be required - I'm guessing exhaust manifold would have...
Anyone know where these are from? Anti-roll bar, maybe? I found these parts on the garage floor today after my daughter left with our 2012 XC70. Any clues what these are?

Thanks!

Update: 45K service was performed - which included scanning for any fault codes and updating software as needed. I asked about wear items needing replacement and was given an inspection report...
I purchased a 2012 XC70 T6 (CPO) two years ago. The battery failed after a little over 2 years of use - we had the car for just a few months at that time. My hydrometer showed a bad cell. The same...
UPDATE: The car now has just over 49,000 miles on the odometer. As the end of the original mfr. warranty is near, I decided to revisit the issue by bringing the car to another area dealer for...
Thanks, gents. for weighing in. Good points - all! I've had a consistently good service experience with one dealer in my area so I have every reason to trust them.
In advance of the car's 45K...
Our family owned a 2002 V70XC disaster (transmission failure just after the warranty expired - and that was just the beginning), We replaced it with a 2012 XC70 T6 (CPO). My gut says 2012 and...
I was fortunate to pick up a CPO 2012 XC70 T6 a couple years back. The car came with Volvo's 'Safe & Secure' coverage which covers wear items for up to 5 years/50K miles. The car currently has...
Hi brentcd. Just noticed your post - I haven't been on the forum in some time. I've experienced a similar issue driving my wife's XC70 T6. It doesn't bother her nearly as much as it bothers me. ...
Service advisor says it's "normal" for the car [mad2]
Yes, at least that's how it feels to me: as if the transmission starts out in 2nd gear, then shifts to 1st. That's what I thought was...
Interesting. So this could be a brake system issue rather than a transmission issue. I'm in the dark as to how "pre-charging" the brakes is supposed to work.
While the transmission in our recently acquired 2012 XC70 T6 (with ~29,000 miles) shifts smoothly when accelerating from a dead stop, I experience a mild jolt forward when accelerating after a “near”...
Do any forum members have access to Technical Service Bulletins? I've got a newly acquired 2012 XC70 T6 with an erratic fuel gauge in for warranty service. It's been at the dealer for 2+ weeks...
Original Volvo batteries have been great choices for me. I live close to dealers to no problem picking one up from the parts counter. Look for parts specials (discount coupons) on the dealer's web...
So true - I love this!

Anyone know if the 2-piece plastic "grommets" used on OEM floor mats are sold anywhere? The mats in my wife's 2002 XC70 are missing a couple of these. They've fallen off over time and the car wash...
I just put a deposit down on a 2012 XC70 T6 with 23,700 miles. It's CPO with Safe & Secure ... which leaves me feeling .... safe & secure [thumbup].

Guys, thanks for the tips. It's helpful hearing from folks who've done this before.
The car is Certified, from a Volvo dealer, MY 2012. I've requested a copy of the completed Certification...
I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on a late model Certified XC70 (still covered by the factory warranty) located a good day's drive away.
I'll likely purchase the car "sight unseen", fly out...
I'm considering a CPO 2012 XC70 listed for sale at an out-of-state dealer. Carfax lists the prior registration as 'corporate'. I suppose the car could have been driven by a single individual but,...
Just replaced a heater core on my 2002. Drops of coolant were showing up on the garage floor. My mechanic said that in this instance coolant may exit from same spot as A/C condensation & drip onto...
... probably no more than 2-3 ounces ... Car was driven. What action should be taken?
