Default XC90 Executive 2.9 twin turbo

We are a non franchised volvo specialist garage with all the toys to repair these cars. We have a xc90 belonging to a customer 54 plate out of warranty the gearbox has been replaced at 30K the box has now done 9k and is gone again, the diff rear awd and AOC had to be changed as dealer reported serious oil leak but told customer to drive 300-400 miles, absolute load of rubish. That advise caused to AWD unit to run out of oil and self destruct. total spend to date is around 7,900.00 and still costing. Volvo dont want to know, stratstone dont care and motorworld havent a clue what planet they should be on. Also today the alternator has gone costing another 800.00. worst car ever produced and backup from volvo = non existant. Cheaper to run a helicopter than these. Beware of high labour charges from dealers also. They love to rack up the bills. If anyone is considering buying one, DONT, but a bmw instead.
