I won't get on any of the other ones... FB is as far as I'll go. I've never understood the purpose of Twitter except for organizations that make regular announcements. Never understood any of them, really.

Any advise on this car and the accompanying link for the piston ring and bearing replacement. Have done a couple head gaskets but Volvo just seems a little more complicated.

The Owner's Manual is 2012 but ad is for 2013

"BOOK VALUE 8280 MUST SELL 5800 OF BEST OFFER" In today's market? Why? Something's not adding up.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Huh, I've never head of this for the old T5s. I've only known about oil consumption issues on the newer 4 cylinders.

Maybe a year or two ago I had consider purchasing a P3 2010 and up XC60 but the oil issue closed that option. That one seem to be in great condition and being not familiar with P3's I Duckduckgo and found that info.

Yeah, the 3.2s also have similar issues. They're good engines overall, I'm just not a fan. They're very bland. And in the case of the XC90, why go with that when you can opt for the V8?
