You should definitely see if you can get your hands on an Ocean Race edition of the XC90, as that one is a sight to see. Also, I liked my 2005 Volvo XC90 so much that I put a head unit with a back up camera in it, installed running boards, installed LED halo headlights, applied a brand new metallic turquoise exterior colour paint job to it, which looks very nice, removed the factory seats and center console and upgraded them to include the rear seat dvd player upgrade. I have a beige interior with a wooden finish on the steering wheel. I also applied custom sheepskin seat covers to improve the comfort of each seat which is a thin version for the middle of the seat and not the entire seat, and I finally also got my hands on a set of 2 1/2 inch thick white wall tires which compliments the entire car and makes it look elegant. They say white walls only fit on classic cars, and I consider the Volvo XC90 to be a classic car, plus the white walls actually look good on the car. Love the XC90!

@@BernonCarsunfortunately the Power Steering pumps wear and the "groan" will never go away until you replace the pump and hoses. On other models (XC70 T6 for example) the "strainer/filter" will become "clogged" and create a very high-pitched "whine/whistle" that won't go away until slightly warmed up or you clean/replace the internal housing filter. On other models (S40 T5 for example) the diaphragm goes and you can check this by pulling the oil dipstick (if the noise goes away when pulling dipstick on T5 while engine running, then you know it's the diaphragm). For the V8 from what I've found (I've only owned 2 myself) once the pump is bad ... It's bad and has to be replaced. Note of caution: Our 1st V8 XC90 had a "bad" PS pump, which predated us taking ownership (very high mileage 1-owner before we bought it). The PS pump ties into the rack and pinion and the lack of fluid over periods of time (my guess ... I'm not a mechanic ... but also "confirmed" by a seasoned Volvo tech at dealership) caused rack and pinion to go, which was a $3000+ job at dealer shortly after we bought. This is extreme case I'm sure, but noteworthy to go ahead and replace the "small stuff". Other noteworthy item is the "flutter" and/or hard shift between 2nd and 3rd gear. If your 6-speed Aisin has this already, your best bet is a Transmission Valve Body replacement. We tried flush and synthetic ATF recommended by Volvo which helped but definitely didn't get rid of the damage/problem. This 2nd XC90 V8 6-speed we now own: 1st thing I asked for after buying is a full transmission flush and refill with synthetic fluid. Shifted very well before, and shifts like a dream after the flush/synthetic and fingers crossed it continues to. Edits: It's late and phone autocorrected "Aisin" to "Austin" and I changed "lush" to "flush" to read correctly

Congratulations. I just let my 2008 Volvo XC-90 V8 go earlier today. In October, a tractor trailer was stopped on a grade in front of me and when the lighted turned green he couldn't find a forward gear he liked and rolled back into me and then pushed me about twenty feet backwards into two more vehicles. Although STILL drivable, the damage exceeded the book worth of the vehicle and the insurer totaled the car. This was our third Volvo and up till the accident I'd accumulated 287,500 miles. I will dearly miss this car. I'm now driving a 2015 Mercedes GLK 350. A fine car, but I'll miss the Volvo a long time.

@@thanehanson8369Try the "hidden hitch" receivers for towing. Hidden Hitch was bought out by Reese parent company years ago. When you're shopping, make sure you get the tongue weight 500 and towing rated for 5000+ models, and not the 350 tongue and 2500-3000 lbs towing models. (they're all the same price from same parent company, and maybe it's just the sales listings that "get it wrong" but don't recommend taking the chance). Highly recommend the factory (from stealership) towing connector/harness/module and software, as it will automatically turn off the backup sensors when towing and also change your transmission shift points appropriately. You may have to get two small "L bracket" pieces and some 2 sets of small nuts/bolts to attach to the tow plug housing to your receiver depending on the model you buy so it sits parallel to the ground.

I will be getting the keys to a '08 XC90 V8 this week. Wrenching in Volvo dealerships from 2010-2018, I have always had an appreciation for the style and safety of the P2 XC90. With 5 V8 balance shaft repairs under my belt, I became pretty familiar with the V8 and have always felt that it is a special engine. My preference in cars is Volvo and I was not specifically looking for an XC90 but a very nice XC90 V8 came across in my car shopping certainly piqued my interest. It drove as nice as it looked and although my wife does not care for the color, the way the car drove and its generally fantastic condition won her over. Though I'm not thrilled at the thought of filling the gas tank, I am excited at the opportunity to drive and preserve this special Swedish masterpiece.

Bern, Duke is one handsome vehicle. Those older XC90s have great presence. Almost like a much fancier and more sophisticated Durango of a similar period. You might want to look into Solution Finish as a restoring option for the plastic trim on the bottom before you do a full paint job on it. I follow a lot of detailers and it seems to be one of the best for restoration of the trim. Then coating it with a ceramic wax/hybrid like Griots garage Ceramic 3 in 1 after would really protect it well. I use that on every exterior surface on my 2017 X3 aka “Hans” except for the tires. Great stuff and lasts a long time for the ease of application and price.

Also, the only suspension mods that I would recommend are Bilstein B4 or B6 struts, IPD Solid Strut Brace mounts and IPD Heavy-Duty Front Control Arms. You've probably found with your new '90 running the 19" wheels that there isn't much room to lower the car to begin with, so that can easily be overlooked. For your wheels, did you Plasti-Dip? My Vulcanis 19's are curbed and require a refinish and I love that dark gunmetal colour... You've inspired me for a springtime facelift project!

Hi Bern, If you could, would you get a 2007 XC90 V8 ??? Kurious, I am (curious). I have a Volvo-shaped hole in my soul, already!!!
@BernonCars8 ай бұрын
I would, but I would expect to have to do some repairs like valve cover gaskets and such, but otherwise an excellent vehicle!

If you like working on your own vehicles and not getting ripped off by the Stealership, you're gonna love your Volvo. replacement/aftermarket parts are available everywhere unlike the Merc you had, I know this, because I owned two Mercs and the replacement/aftermarket parts pool is almost non-existence, hence, the high price of parts being shipped to you from the Factory in Germany. and the downtime and pain in the ass to get changed out. I have a gang of horror stories about owning Mercs and the ONLY one that's worth owning in my opinion is the SEC560 coupe and even still it's a Money pit. If you like throwing your money away, buy a Benz, if you like saving money and pride of Ownership, buy a Volvo.

What's the point in driving a Volvo with an engine that wasn't built by Volvo? Sure, it was designed 'for' Volvo. But that's beside the point. Isn't the V8 a gas-guzzler?
@BernonCars2 ай бұрын
The V8 isn't a gas guzzler! Nothing like a Land Cruiser or something of that caliber. Also, just drive one. No explanation needed

Man don’t paint the plastic , get a silicon shoe polish from Germany that stays for ages ( Collonil silicon polish black $30 au ) . Used for few years , it’s great .
