I like the looks of the XC60 and surely is an improvement, but I would be afraid about the potential issues. There have been widespread problems with windshield leaking over electronics, cabin blower going bad costing a fortune (located in the middle of the dash), surely other annoyances Perhaps not...

Idk about the stuff you mentioned, but for my 2004 V70, I used:

GROM-AUX1-VOL01, VOL01A1, $66 on ebay.
Ebay seller name is "replacementradios".

Works great.
GROM is a good product, tried and true.

I've got one of those. It works ok. Sound quality is acceptable. On my radio, HU650RDS (without the selector knob) you can only set up one folder with up to 999 song files in it. While playing, the display on the radio doesn't display the first digit on file numbers 100+. On radios with the selector...

What should I check for ? any common issues ? check for leaks around the lower radiator hose those things tend to leak and cause overheating issues and blown head gaskets. check the timing belt for wear and possible oil leak from the cam seals. if its turbo take the lower air pipe off and check for...

P0026 Intake (A).
P0027 Exhaust (B).

Any idea of a good way to release the bolt on B? i cant seem to be able to release it, not manually and not with impact driver drill. its just on the edge of breaking the hex teeth... If you are using a Hex bit you are using the wrong tool. It is a Torx so use a Torx bit. If a Torx bit will not bre...

If I could clarify; what I'm trying to tell you is that at the end of the day it doesn't matter. Almost all motor oil today has already exceeded the required specs from the 2000's and the only thing you should be worrying about is the oil weight and the price. Now if you want 0w-40 then yes you can ...

Fancy suspension? The standard XC70 suspension is no such thing; 4C or Nivomat XC70 suspension is pricy to replace but very few cars were equipped with either of those. Buying high quality oil when it is cheap is a great thing. In fact, it almost becomes a game. Recently, Fleet Farm had a sale on Sh...

Remove the torx screw from the cable clip. Than you can remove the wire harness and carefully remove the dipstick. You have to bend it slightly. Best to do this from below with the car on ramps.
Fyi you need to reset the fluid counter with Vida or other scan tools after drain and fill.

Check the rear side glass seals or the antenna on top. Water could also be coming from the rear hatch seal. Dry the entire area and use a leaf blower to remove any dampness and then use a hose to see how fast and or where it may potentially be coming in. Is the spare tire well wet also?
