Re: 2.5t 208hp powerful enough??

I've had 5 200+ lb hockey players, plus 5 hockey bags, in mine and didn't notice any problems. Not sure that I'd want to tow with it, but the 2.5 T is good enough for most driving conditions. Depends on what you're looking for, of course, but my "other" care is a Porsche and I still don't ...

Re: Cup holder cover sticking

I took it apart this afternoon, and here's what I found. There were actually two problems preventing it from working smoothly. The first was that the front edge of the cover was rubbing against the plastic of the console; loosening the two small torx screws - one on each side - allowed me to push th...

Groaning from power steering?

'04 2.5 AWD. When turning left, there's a noise from the steering - it doesn't do it when turning right, though.

Any idea what might be causing it?

Re: How do I tell what audio system & speakers I have?

I'm thinking that perhaps they had different options for Canada? I have all the options you list except for the 6-CD changer - at least, I couldn't find a way to get it to take a 2nd disk. Maybe I'll have to try again. I actually stopped by the local Volvo dealer today, and according to their comput...

How do I tell what audio system & speakers I have?

I have a 2004 XC90 2.5 AWD. When I turn the stereo on, it tells me I have "Premium Audio" with Dolby Pro Logic, and I have the rear controls. Is this the 12 speaker package? What about the subwoofer - it looks like that is a separate option. I found a list of available options here but acc...

Cup holder cover sticking

Hi all! I have a new-to-me 2004 XC90 2.5 AWD. There are a few things on it that I'd like to take care of - the first being the cover over the cup holders in the center console. I assume it's supposed to open/close with a slight push, but while it locks, it doesn't unlock - I have to pry it up to get...
