Front left Headlight keeps blowing
Hi,
I have recently purchased a 2008 XC90 D5 and so far I'm loving it!! The previous owner said that the left headlight seems to go (blow) from time to time. To such an extent that he always had a spare in the glove box. So in typical fashion, this happened last night. Is this a know problem? If so, any suggestions on what it could be? Thanks in advance. |
You're not alone on this. My S60 used to eat through them at an alarming rate. One side would go, then the other, then the other side again, so on and so on. I then bought a decent pair of blue light bulbs, fitted them both together, and I think I got a year or more out of them before one blew. Its worth a try.

Think the issue is that Volvo head lights are on more often. Get heavy duty ones and they seem to last. Its easier to get them from Volvo themselves, apparently the Volvo bulbs are a better quality (heavier duty) than standard bulbs for this reason. I lost a few before I realised and haven't changed one for over a year now (but I bet one goes in the morning :) )

Go to the dealer buy 2 correct volvo H7 bulbs and enjoy about 18 months or so of trouble free headlamps . |
