166,000 kilometers
Had it for just over 4 years. Bought it in April 2011 with 64,000kms on it.
All major/routine repair items that I did included new springs (both front springs broke), new AOC...
I bid farewell to my 2006 XC70 on the weekend. I sold it to acquire a minivan for the growing family. Thank you to everyone who posts advice, resources, pictures, experiences, etc. on this site as it...
This is really confusing. If you just purchased and installed the plugs, how come you do not know what type you installed so that you can just buy one to match the other four?
More likely a...

Look below, there is a Classified Forum
USE IT PLEASE"

$1000 was for a haldex pump AND to rebuild the module. A lot better option than the $3000 in parts and $1500 in labour quoted by the Volvo dealership.
A actually only paid $100 for the coil. I...
4 years ago my wife and I had to buy a new car. We debated between a VW, Subaru, and Volvo. My wife really liked the XC70, and after a test drive, so did I. It seemed like a solid, well built car...

Here is my 2006 with S60 AWD springs. The wheels are 18" with 225/55 tires. For another reference it is exactly 16" from the centre of the wheel to the edge of the fender directly above it on...
I have a 2006 XC70 with stock struts and S60 AWD springs. I will get you a picture soon.
"What oil should i use or is the volvo packaged stuff the best bet."
"any info appreciated."
Look on tirerack.com. They have customer reviews on tons of tires, including the one you are looking at. Look for tires by brand. It will be more efficient than waiting for a response on here, plus...
Thanks for your help hightest. I did find your original post from December 2013, which is how I found out about Xemodex and the step by step procedure. Your additional link to the Sweedespeed was...
I have a 2006 XC70 with 160kms. I lost my AWD and had it diagnosed at a Volvo dealership and it was determined the AOC pump shorted, causing my DEM to fry. They quoted $4400 to replace the DEM and...
I think that because that wheel is listed to fit all 60 and 70 series volvos (ie V70, XC70), it will fit no problem. I have V70R 18" Pegasus wheels on mine with 45mm offset with no problems.
I think it's more than just a manufacturing flaw. All the pictures I've seen plus both of my front springs break in the exact same place. I believe it is where the last coil makes contact with the...
It's possible the springs were weak because the difference does not look as drastic as I thought it would.
Thanks for the offer but the S60 springs are already in and the car is in for an alignment.
S60awd springs will work fine. There are a lot of examples on this forum of people using just the springs and stock xc70 shocks and struts. I put the S60 rears in too. Lowered car only about 1",...
I hava a 2006 xc70 with 130,000kms. Went to a friends house last weekend with no issues with the car. When I left their place, the instant a drove away I heard a horrible grinding noise when I turned...
2006 with 125,000 kms. Broke when parked. Luckily did not harm tire, just grinding on inner fender.
I have the left front headlight from my 2006 XC70. I had to replace the right one because the lens shattered, so I thought I would replace both while I had the car apart, so now I have an extra one. ...
I posted a thread for some lenses, but have been informed that the lenses are not sold separately. If anyone has a right headlight, or needs to sell the pair, let me know cost and shipping to...
As the title states, I am looking for a front right headlight lens for a 2006 XC70. Mine got a hole in it. These are the plastic type. If you have the left and right in good shape, I will take both...
New pads and rotors on all four corners fixed it! Have not had the warning in a couple weeks. All pads were <2mm and the front rotors were at 23mm (according to dealer). In any case I am happy to see...
New pads and rotors on all four wheels. Went with drilled and slotted rotors from R1 Concepts, after reading several good reviews on them. They feel good with a good initial bite and no noise. I have...
So the result is that the pads are really low and the system recognizes that with a service warning. I ordered new rotors and pads all around, will update after I put them on.
2006 XC70 with just over 100K Kms on it. I have noticed going around (driving, not braking) some hard corners, and during some hard braking that the low brake fluid warning light comes on, sometimes....
