  I posted this on the Volvo forum earlier today but wondered whether anyone on here with knowledge of Volvos/autos could offer any advice.  Thanks! I bought my V60 D5 Geartronic from a main dealer in November last year and up until recently, it's been a joy.

• Volvo V50 1.6D (Not DRive) (2008 Model Year) - DPF (again!) 29 Jan 2012 (Forum)
  It goes for its first "MoT" shortly, so I had the 80k service carried out by my local Volvo dealer (at €84 for the labour - about 75 minutes, it's not the type of adventure one undertakes too often) just to be sure that all the bells and whistles were up to speed. Since I don't usually get servicing done at Volvo dealers, I asked if there was an Eolys tank, a DPF, what were the replacement intervals etc.
• Volvo C30 - Covered after warranty runs out? 6 Mar 2022 (Forum)
  Morning all, I picked up a Volvo C30 3 weeks ago with a 2 month warranty with it. It's been absolutely fine other than a 'grinding' sound from the front at about 40-60 mph. At first I thought it could be the manifold blowing, it's not ridiculously loud but now I'm very aware of it.
• Volvo XC90 - Car not starting on test drive 27 Feb 2019 (Forum)
  Hello Folks, In the market for a XC90 with a budget of up to 20K. Went for a test drive today to a Volvo dealer to try a 14 plate 36000 on the clock vehicle. The car won't start so they had to jump start it (took a few attempts), the car was then left running for 10 minutes before I took it for a 15 minutes drive.
• Volvo v70 2.4 auto 2000 - Automatic gearbox lifespan 6 May 2018 (Forum)
  Hello,    My uncle is replacing his 2000 volvo v70 which he has had since new, and has offered it to me to use for my communting and work purposes. I have an older car which i would like to keep the miles down on, so it seems like a good idea.
• Wavery Idle - Volvo 480 3 Feb 2018 (Forum)
  Hoping to confirm my suspicions:(In no way related to my intent to swap out the top half of my engine BTW). I drive a volvo 480 with a rock solid idle at 850. After a recent service, (although like all things maybe it was there prior, l just didn\'t notice?) it appears the idle now slightly tremors between 850 and 900.
• Volvo? - Comfortable reclining (?) rear seats 24 Apr 2016 (Forum)
  My mother is such a nervous passenger that they have decided she is better off in the back - but she has bad arthritis - hence the need for comfort as well! I have always found Volvo seats to be extremely comfortable - but my experience has been limited to the front. I am therefore wondering if there are any smallish family cars that have individual rear seats rather than a bench?
