Servicing the the haldex has a filter located in different places (different generations were used. It can be hard to access.

The alternative is to simply syringe out the out fluid (as much as poss) then fill with mew fluid. Drive then remove small qty.

It is recomended to service on other makes not on the Volvo though.

I have previously used General grabber AT2 on the Suzuki which were very road like in handling but great off road.

I use Michelin cross climates on the Volvo as they are summer compound yet three peak rated. Excellent in snow, slush and muddy tracks etc.

Down muddy rutted tracks etc mine never slips and never sends grip to the rear. I do notice it however on snow and wet roads when pulling away quick.

For comfort and space the XC90 can’t be beaten.

Are you handy with the spanner’s??
