I drove a 2005 XC70, son now drives it. I got a 2012 XC70 T6 a couple months ago. Love the power, and modern updates, but it actually is little taller than the 2005. I love how the 2005 handles! ...

Update.

The ABS Anti Skid came back on after my mechanic cleaned and checked the sensor, so I had him replace it with a new one. It drove fine for a week, then it came on AGAIN! He said bring...

I have the same issue with my 05 XC70. Two weeks ago the ABS Anti Skid service light came on. I also hear a slight clicking when I initially turn right after start up, then it's gone. Took it to the...

We have the same vehicle, with about 135K miles. Just had to replace the exhaust system ( not even the entire system) and that was about $2,000. Our indie exhaust mechanic said he had to use Volvo...

The saga of the EST Touring Exhaust is finished!

I forwarded all the replies I got from members here to my mechanic, thanks.

We agreed he should take the car to the dealership up the road to...

Looking for further input and advice, which I will pass on to my mechanic. Just to recap what was done (I pieced this message together from a couple emails from my mechanic). The full exhaust pipe...

My indie mechanic agreed with the issue probably being the rear o2 sensor. He sent me this picture to show how the sensor is positioned currently. He will install a new rear sensor today to...

So, I had to replace my exhaust system. I ordered the Mototec Touring Exhaust down pipe and cat back exhaust from Eurosport Tuning. My indie mechanic installed it. After a couple days I got a...

I have a 2005 XC70. My PEM went out, had the car towed to the closest dealer, they charged me $445 to replace it. They did not have the cable to reposition it, but I got home. At my local dealer...

I have the Yokohama Avid Envigor on my 2005 XC70, and I like those, they are a little more performance oriented. I have the Avid Ascend on my wife's 2008 XC90, less performance and more touring type...

I drive a 2005 XC70. My wife drives a 2008 XC90 (AWD).
Things to consider; how big is your family? The XC90 seats 7, but the third row is not very convenient to use. We have 4 kids, but we don't...

I ended up putting the Nokian WRG2 on the XC90 17" stock rims. Tire warehouse here in town had them. I figured this will give me time to find a decent used set of 18" rims for a summer wheel set...

The wife has a 2008 XC90 (3.2 AWD). We've had it for a year, time to replace the Yokohama Geolanders now. From what I've read, the XC90 wears through tires fast. I have read about Nokians on XC70s,...

Nice looking XC, and those are pretty low miles! I bought a 05 three years ago with 97K, and put in a Heavy Duty Turbo Control Valve from IPD, it really brought back the performance of the turbo,...

This is a picture from the dealer last month ?. We drove it home in the snow, so it's not clean now. This spring I want to get a "family" photo of all 4 volvos together.
green 1967 122S...

So, JRL sent an email saying that price was absurd for that many miles. Located a 2008 with only 97K for $16,500, and we bought that one today. My wife absolutly loves it and is very happy. We now...

Looking at getting a good used XC90 for my wife (I have a XC70, and 122, son has a S70, this could make us a total volvo family). We found a 2008 at a dealer in southern NH, the vehicle is willow...

JRL,
Thank you for the good data based feedback.

I was able to get to the dealership this evening, which was over an hour away...and I came back home with my XC70.

After test driving the V70R...

To start, I know there are many knowledgeable people on this forum who offer good advice.

I have enjoyed my 2005 XC70 for almost two years now, and was really happy when I got it. But...my real...

Dave,
Are you willing to ship the wheels? I am using my 16" wheels year round and I am thinking of making them my winter wheels and getting larger rims for summer. I like the look of yours, and...

I had a trailer hitch put on my 05 XC70 last year when I bought it. The wiring harness was put in the left side electronics bay also. It is out of the way there, and when I need it I just open it...

Are the tires still available? I will be in CT next weekend.
