XC90 Leaning on a Space Saver
Saw this and it was 'listing' due to the Space Saver, it made me think that the diameter of the SS can't be a match for the other road wheels?
If the wheel size is incorrect it'll rotate at a different speed - the differential won't like that?

It also depends on whether the space saver is inflated correctly.

The differential will be fine, as will the haldex system, they are designed to cope with that. It doesn't look very "Volvo" though....
