The end
Well, despite all the care and money lavished on my fantastic, spotless 2012 XC 70 it continues to reward me with more problems. Despite a couple of gearbox sump dumps it now thuds into D when hot and there is the very faintest sound of what I believe to be turbo bearing. It will probably go on like this for years and years but I cant take the risk as I need a totally reliable car for work. I just don't have the time for repeatedly mending it or getting it mended. Its only done 75000 miles so I'm very disappointed. If nothing else was going on id pay for a new valve body but I just feel like ill be fixing something else a week later.
SO.....Ive just bought a brand new out of the box Hyundai Santa Fe auto with 5 years unlimited warranty. Very expensive but will be properly reliable unlike any of the 3 volvos I have owned including one brand new S40 which was bad from the start. I thought about a new Xc 60 but it wont be reliable compared to the Korean so this is the end of Volvo for me. Al Last edited by The vast minority; Jul 12th, 2018 at 17:19. |
