Our Beast Volvo XC90 Introduction + Happy New Year from Me and Bianco

Hi there. Maybe I'm not the sharpest pencil 😂😂😂 but I can't find the video you talking about it the turbo actuator

Great vid. We just bought a 2012 Executive model in Flamenco Red with brown leather and massage seats for £3000. Had to have massage seats.. Car has FULL Volvo service and repair history with receipts. I've done 3000 miles in the last month we've had it and it's now on 250k miles, so 400k kms? Everything works and is amazing like new condition. Biggest surprise is that I'm getting a true calculated 36mpg (7.85 l/100km) from the 200bhp engine. Only thing I've had to do is clean the MAP sensor, but I will do a turbo vane clean at some point. And add Kumho AT52 all terrain tyres. Driving from UK to Finland next summer via Calais so should be a fun trip, and down to Spain later in the year. Thinking of going for a roof tent but not quite sure yet. We have the4 massage seats on all the time. Did I mention we love the massage seats? 😁

@@Spacemonkeymk1 hey!! Wow what a bargain!! Thats a great deal you got! I also have to do the turbo vane clean I think as I changed the actuator but sometimes the arm that is connected from it to turbo gets stuck - so I guess its the “sticky turbo vanes” - so that is the only think that actually sometimes bothers me - then I turn car off and on again and the actuator arm gets unstuck and all works like a charm again!! Apart frok this amazing tank - just came from Alps now… 😅💪 7.8 l thats great!! I get around 8.7-8.9 but im mostly in country side so little roads all the time.. MAP sensor I also changed yes!! Yes its nice to keep in touch so we can share our experiences- thats actually one of the reasons why I posted this! All terrain tyres are also on my list now!! 🥳 thanks for valuable input!! 💪 and happy new year again!!
