A quick update as promised on my car. It went in Wednesday last week as planned and has been fine since, though I have only done about 300 miles in it so far. I connected the computer up to it this morning and all the fault codes have gone so I'm happy that it is resolved. I'm just a bit concerned that several people are saying that it can return, all I can do is wait and see.
I'm sure I read somewhere on this thread about the recall Volvo have issued, I'm not sure exactly which cars and/or engines it relates to but I had a letter back in about July, and they sorted mine out at the same time as the EGR cooler; I had asked about it on the service two weeks previously and they said it wasn't out yet, then hey presto it was by the time they did this work! It was replacing the manifold apparently, and he said that it included some of the pipework that I had had replaced with the cooler anyway, then a software update on top. Could this be anything to do with ensuring there is no recurrence of the problem or is it something unrelated? |

EGR Cooler blockage
I've had a reply from Volvo UK Customer Support confirming my car has no outstanding recalls against it and offering to talk to Volvo Shrewsbury about my EGR Cooler issue.
Still waiting to hear back from Volvo Shrewsbury.

Great news. I only managed to get 90% goodwill for mine. I might go and ask for a refund!

Yeah, I'm still upset about having to pay £337 towards a replacement EGR valve last year... definitely won't be buying a new Volvo next year as originally planned!

I will post details of any reply or follow up that results. I have owned XC60's (and been a member of this forum) for just short of 10yrs and think they are a great car but my suspicion is that the pre-adblue D4 engine is a major engineering faux pas by Volvo that probably can't really be fixed, if it could they'd have it cracked long before now. I had intended to keep mine long term but this has left me with no faith whatsoever in the engines longevity. So it's now traded in for a petrol engined Skoda Superb Estate which, after 3 weeks, I'm very pleased with. It's not a prestige marque but, so far, I've found it to be a very good motor at around a third less than the equivalent Volvo. So, other than any feedback from HJ, I will bid you guys farewell and best wishes for the future - this really is a cracking forum with many very knowledgeable posters and not too much agro or argument. All the best. |

Volvo is a premium marque with rock solid Swedish engineering and unparalleled customer service.
Yeah, right! |
