Hey guys,

I have had a 2001 S60 for 4 years now, it has 320,000 km on it and has been an amazing car. Now it has come time to purchase a vehicle for the wife and she is interested in the XC 60. We have found a few around but one that has caught our eye is a 2013 XC 60 AWD with the 3.2 in it. It is in great shape and significantly cheaper than other we have found.

I am hoping to get some insight to whether it is a huge difference between the 3.2 and the T5 / T6 models. Anything to look out for? any insight is appreciated.

Thank you,

Matt

FWIW, I have heard not nice things about the 3.2 motor. I suggest further research.

Good luck.

To replace the belt drive in a T6 (not the timimg chain) the a/c compressor must be removed. A job that would take 10 minutes in an S60.

They do drive differently from a P2 and have a great interior and handling/ride package.
