1. The new XC40 – it’s Volvo’s littlest SUV, and being small it’s called a CUV – Compact Utility Vehicle. It joins big brother XC60, which has been around since 2009, and big big brother XC90, which debuted in 2003.
2. If you missed it, here’s a Volvo Hearse!
3. Polestar tunes (increased engine power) go back as far as some 2005 Volvo Models (2005 S80 for instance). I was surprised at this news.
4. Another 850 smashed by a drunk driver while parked.
5. How do you lower an S60?
6. MVS’s Abscate — MVS Moderator — is right now replacing the clutch in his 2005 V70. Follow his odyssey of learning, working and cursing.
7. MVS member ratchet27 is having a difficult time with his new XC90 V8. But he’s having a problem with it starting and running. Follow his saga here.
8. Was this a thing? Were there any factory options that lowered and/or stiffened the suspension on Volvo 850s, and 1998-2000 S70 and V70s?
9. QOTM and QOTM2
Hire a mechanic and it’s called a money pit.
