Mats are sold pending funds.

I took some photos of the mats in case anyone is interested.

Yes, they are used, but they cleaned up nicely. They were the winter mats in our XC-90.

Here are the photos:

Bump.

Mats are still available.

I have a set of the Volvo rubber floor mats for a 2005 XC90. They are Tan in color. Not new, but cleaned up and in good condition.

The XC90 was leased and has been returned with the original...

All this talk about a very useful button.

Winter mode IS useful for driving in very icy or slippery conditions. Not only does it reduce the torque to the wheels when starting out, it lowers the...

The dealer resolved the leak on my car by sealing the area around the right hood (bonnet) hinge. Hasn't leaked since.

The dealer has a lot to do with the ownership experience and the quality of the car. Really.

Good dealerships have good mechanics who do things right.

I replaced the OEM Michelin tires on my XC90 AWD with Nokian WRs. I had used the WRs on the Cross Country and was very pleased with the performance in inclement weather.

Other than having to...

Did you ever get this problem resolved? My '02 is experiencing similar symptoms. I wouldn't have noticed other than that my daughter complained about the car spraying water on her feet...

Last night I was driving west on I-68 from Cumberland, MD to Morgantown, WV. The blowing rain turned to blowing snow and one of the worst blizzard/slush/snow conditions I've driven in outside of the...

Both of the rear wheel bearings were replaced on my '05 XC-90 at 22k miles. Sure is quiet now!

My '05 XC90 AWD developed a noise which sounded like a set of knobby winter tires. The noise got worse and worse - varied with speed but never with road/pavement conditions. Hum, must not...

I have driven my XC-70 on jeep trails and areas with no roads. The AWD system works very well but there are some shortcomings to the vehicle design that cannot be overcome.

The breakover angle of...

A couple of years ago we took our Cross Country on an extensive trip around Wyoming. This included a day trip up a jeep road into the Big Horn Mountains.

Given the plastic nose on the car, a bra...

The brand & grade of gasoline you use will influence the mileage. My XC-70 gets better mileage with Premium grade fuel and really likes the Shell v-tech stuff. I rarely buy the Shell gas because...

Sadly, the mileage numbers everyone posted seem to be about the same. There can be variation due to fuel formulations - oxygenated fuel has less energy per gallon than other formulas.

Try adjusting the left side mirror farther out than normal - so you barely see any of the vehicle in the mirror.

Most (high-performance) driving schools recommend using the center rear view mirror...

I, too, tend to remove the crossbars when not using them. If you are using a top box, it is really easy to leave the box attached to the bars and remove the entire assembly from the roof - just...

Why don't you try the Toyo Observe studless winter tire:

or the Toyo 800 ??

Personally, I'm happy with the Nokian WR tires on my Cross...

Sometimes, on rare occasions, leasing is a better deal than buying. In the past, manufacturers would offer aggressive finance deals on leases to move cars. Often the effective interest rate was far...

This is really nothing new. Twenty-two years ago there was a student in my Bondurant class who had crashed his Chevy Blazer by using the cruise control on a wet road. Thankfully modern electronics...

Mr. P -

Be honest, this really was just a way for you to show off your cool exhaust system, wasn't it????

:D

I just love people who buy high-performance cars and then complain about...

The current code for rear fog lamps is a single red lamp on the driver's side of the vehicle. The space on the other side of the car is for countries that drive on the wrong side of the road (either...

We tend to forget that not all products are available in all areas!

My XC90 has Michelin Synchrone tires. Other than that they are quiet, I'm not overly impressed. Work fine most of...
