Re: Bluetooth issues 2012 XC 60

In my opinion, based on ownership and seeing many internet topics discussing this exact thing, there is a problem with the bluetooh in the 2012 XC60 (maybe other models in same year, don't know).

Re: 2010 T6 - Alternator Spinning - READ side

The pulley on the READ side is attached by a bolt. The reason that the pulley gets loose is because the clutch pulley on the Alternator stops working and it backs off the READ pulley So you will need a Tool and a pulley for the Alternator Good luck Paul Thanks Paul. Your posting is still giving bac...

Re: $10,000 S80 Challenge

Best. Thead. Ever! Just say'n. ;-) Bought 2007 S80 3.2 in 2018 with 98k for $6k, used as college car for a few years.

Re: 2014 XC 60 Bluetooth noise through speakers

Try this (I'm serious): move the bluetooth device (i.e., iPhone, etc.) to the left air vent next to the side window. I had this issue while using the phone/bluetooth with the phone in a CD player based bracket (center console). Now I just put the phone in the driver's door pocket. My guess is the bl...

Re: Sump Seal replacement

Long time reader, first time poster :) Came from a '99 S70 GLT which, at 168k, had just started to make some valve noise on startup that would go away pretty quickly. Meticulous care by moi, ran synthetic it's whole life, etc... Now on a used 2007 XC70 with 125k, I'm finding it a bit noisier that th...
