Re: 2014 XC90 Trailer Hitch

Not sure your urgency but my kids 2005 2.5T has a 2” receiver hitch we’ve never used and probably never will. Would be open to removing and selling but shipping may be prohibitive. Never looked at how big it is to where it mounts with the frame. I assume it is OEM as it’s all tucked in nicely. A lo...

2014 XC90 Trailer Hitch

Is anyone aware of a hitch that can be installed on a 2014 XC90 that doesn’t require cutting into the fascia? The only one I could find was Hidden Hitch 87810, but that item has been discontinued.

Thank you!

Re: Oil Leak in Engine Compartment

Thanks. There was some oil around there. Is that crankshaft oil leaking out of there, then?

Re: Oil Leak in Engine Compartment

Thanks. There is no dipstick on this model. I should note, there is some oil on some engine components above the transmission fluid fill plug as well.

Oil Leak in Engine Compartment

Hi, I was changing the oil today on my 2009 S80 3.2 (96,500 miles), and noticed some sort of oil on the driver’s side of the plastic tray that you have to remove to access the oil pan plug. I then looked in the engine, and noticed that the entire area around where the transmission fluid fill port is...

Re: Paint Job on New Bumper

Thank you. Did you buy it from Volvo directly? I saw that Tasca sells painted bumpers, but I’m not sure who painted them (does Volvo paint them?).

Paint Job on New Bumper

Hi, I was rear ended not too long ago, and the bumper needed to be replaced and repainted. A new Volvo OEM bumper was painted and put on by the shop. The new bumper was lightly tapped shortly after being replaced :cry:. The bumper itself is fine, but the paint is flaking off and bubbling terribly al...

Re: Noisy Blower Fan

Thank you. Do you know why they replace that at the same time? Is it simply because they’ve already got everything open, might as well change that, too?

It appears to be #3 in the above picture...but how do I access it? Somewhere from the driver’s side?

Re: Noisy Blower Fan

I talked to a local Volvo (non-dealer shop), and they confirmed the motor is going bad. They are saying the resistor has to be replaced as well. Does this sound accurate?

Also, anyone know where the blower motor resistor is located?
