Hi … JC here in the UK … had my XC60 since 2019 - ex demo Inscription Pro with Polestar engineered software upgrade + tow bar.

As a lifetime Volvo fan - I have had many over the years - XC60 Gen 1, XC90, 850 estate, 740 GL estate, 360 GLT .. and just about to purchase an XC40 PHEV used for my wife. Previously had numerous Audis and 1 BMW 518i Lux !

TBH the XC60 Gen 2 is an accomplished car which I continue to really enjoy driving - around town or down to S France it cruises along fully laden or empty …

Love the look of it too

Cons - need to take care not to damage the special wheels … user interface has a few niggles - especially when car status update is active and this prevents me using my phone plug in for spotify / google maps .. but really not much to complain about.

would I recommend it - absolutely !

Hi y'all!

I am a new member from Arkansas here in the U.S. Well, actually, I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA. but because of work, I now live in Arkansas. It is an absolutely horrible state. Almost as if technology and progress stopped in the late 80s.

Whoa, that was close. Almost my first, off-topic rant.

I just purchased a 2017 XC60 T5 with 58k miles. So far, it seems to have been a great deal. I have it sitting for 2 days now, in the same spot, and no drips, drops, or puddles underneath. It is always scary to purchase a used vehicle that has no service records. That little sticker in the top corner of the windshield doesn't mean anything. But yeah, with the low mileage and it running great, I feel fairly comfortable saying I grabbed a good vehicle.

Excited to read the 'what have you' and the 'what nots' of the forum. More than anything, learning about the Volvo brand is something I can't wait to dive into. While it has only been a few days of me being a Volvo owner, I can tell you the Volvo Kool-Aid is flowing. Beyond any shadow of doubt, I am a converted fan.
Thanks.

Hi all

I am HY I just joined the forum! I am in Bristol, UK and I drive an 2018 R-Design XC60. I have owned it for the last 2 years, I like the car but I've had a fair share of troubles with the dealership and their astronomical costs so I decided I should learn more about the car and do whatever I can do on my own. Excited to join, learn and contribute.

Thanks

Hey all. not sure how active this forum is. I'm a C40 owner who's lease ends next year and am contemplating an XC60 Recharge as my next car.. Love the C40 but it's too small and the 90 is too big.. Sat in an XC60 at the dealership and thought it was "just right". Looking forward to learning more about this model.

I am David, owner of a 2015.5 xc60 T6. First Volvo was a Pv444 in the 60s, had 2 Pv544s, one with souped up B16B engine. Also founded dsk cars and built dsk TurboSevens. Thinking about a chip for my T6 and a big screen info/nav screen. Anyone know about these?

Hi! New face here. Own a 2023 XC60 and a 2023 S90. Love our vehicles but super frustrated with bugs in software updates. Is this normal?? 3.0.3 has been nothing but a PIA for both vehicles. Anyone else living this nightmare??

I recently joined. My name is Don.
The post made me create a password for some reason, I know not why.
It took me a while trying figure out how to log in with my password but gave up with that try and stumbled to here.

I had to stumble in again by Googling "Volvo Forums" which gave me a ton of places to choose.

Can someone please tell me the easy way in to post some questions about my 7 day old new 2024 XC60 T8 Plugin with all the trimmings (think all)?
Please reply via email to donofnashua@duck.com
Otherwise, I'll never find my way back to here for your reply!. Thanks.
Don

If its a T8, try the back seat for fit. Designed for very short legs. You sit in a deep well and can't move your feet to the center side to be more comfortable on long rides

Hi, have 2022 xc60 b5 momentum. NO COMPASS😢 have had nothing but Volvos since 1986. I know I have navigation, but relied on compass. Found it very useful .

I've been trying to introduce myself since I bought my XC60 T8 at ~the end of June 2024. I managed, after a lot of trying, to become a member with a user name Don and an accepted password. Since then I've been trying to get attention from the moderator (or anyone) for how to use the Forum but with NO replies. So, I don't know if this post is going anywhere either.
I do have a lot of issues about the many features which my salesman says I should go to the forum for answers. I have attached one as a test to see if any answers come back
On that point, I don't know for sure how to get back in and find the answer's. My email is DonOfNashua@Duck.com
Thanks,
Don
