Ditto. It would appear that high mileage use is an advantage with most modern diesels such as the VEA engine in keeping them 'blown through' if you know what I mean. With my XC60 2015 I have just clicked over 100k with a significant amount of that towing; so worked quite hard. Main dealer serviced from new and had the EGR fix early on at about 30k, and since no other problems. Compared to its predecessor BMW 5 Series 2.5 diesel nightmare the Volvo has acquitted itself very well so far. Will it do another 100k? Here's hoping! Anybody managed it yet?
