My car pulls left, then other times pulls right... if i hold the steering wheel tightly the car will go straight which leads me to believe the actual tracking is straight... but something else is bent/moving/shifting to cause the car to want to pull either left or right.
Along with the pulling, the way the car makes contact with the road also changes or feels like it does....enough to make me need to slow going into corners. i know when the issue has shifted not only by the which way it pulls but also by how the car feels in regards to contact with the road as crazy as it sounds through the seat....

Apparently some idiots still think this is the US '.com' Honest John site and spam it accordingly with 'products' only available outside the UK and have to be bought it $US or other local currency.
They're just wasting their time.

Volvos have not been reliable for well over a decade
Lots of problems with various models

Personally I do not think Top Gear proves anything other than how amazing it is to be still being made.
A road test abusing 3 cars does not prove reliability. 10 years of normal use proves reliability....

Morning guys.
Car went into limp mode this morning, so when i got home i checked in around the engine for any noticeable faults, found an oil explosion all over an injector and covering around 8inchs around the engine bay. Some dry oil and some still wet. Car was last serviced 3k ago. Any ideas? Read more
Injector seals leaking ,or split diesel supply or spill pipes.If it is the seals,then this allows combustion gases to congeal around the injector to create a mass of black gunge.

Repair charge at end of lease; I had a similar issue many years ago on returning an MB leased vehicle, except they demanded +£3k. I objected and in the end they withdrew the claim because no damage had been recorded on the collection list, signed by their agent. They were also meant to arrange for the car to be inspected prior to return, which they had not done. I leased my next car via a third party, they helpfully pointed me in the direction of a leasing trade body that details what wear & tear is acceptable relevant to the leasing mileage.
(My MB lease was 3years at 30,000/year)...


faulty tyres could be the issue as i have noticed whenever i'm parked even if its for 10 mins if the road isn't flat the tyres seems to shape to the road and take a while to smooth out while driving... causing a pull/
