Agree. But this is a far more serious issue.. I’ve read somewhere the other day that this affects a million vehicles sold. I suspect the fix is going to be a comprehensive one. Or else Volvo sales will suffer.. seriously. Last I checked Volvo sales in EU were more than 60% diesels..

Me too. I'll get out if it ever catches fire!

BBC Radio 2 midday news just now, 'Volvo recalling almost 70k cars in the uk because of a fire risk related to an engine problem, the issue effects certain models built between 2014 and 2019'

It's all over the press now - slightly fast and loose with the position given that a recall hasn't yet been issued - here's one such article with a somewhat misleading and sensationalist title https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/wires/...fire-risk.html

Very dramatic wasn't it, scaremongery as no cars have actually caught fire ...

This link suggest's it's the Turbo-Charged diesels only; "The impacted models have the turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engine and are only those produced over the last five years." Anyone know is that's correct? If so would that mean only D5's may be affected? Is it linked to the powerpulse hose? |
