V is for vibration
I have had my V90 Inscription Pro (MY19) for 4 months now. I have balanced the wheels 3 times (once dealer and twice at my local preferred tyre specialist). But I still have vibes at speed and not the good type. At 85 mph, cruising the French motorways, at times the vibration is almost as much as the lane departure warning to the point that you can barely notice it. But at other times, there is hardly any vibration. I do not think it is road surface related. Seems to be related to engine power output. Running down a slight hill seems to reduce the vibrations, going up an incline increases them. I’ve tried dropping down a gear, to increase engine revs but this doesn’t seem to make a difference. I have tried different drive modes but couldn’t be sure if they made any difference. Is there some balancing of the transmission that Volvo can do? I love the car but these vibrations are not comfortable and will probably reault in a shorter life span. Anyone else had this? The dealer being based in London are next to hopeless. They don’t actually know anything about driving, only selling you a car that looks cool.
