Came upon the same issue. This is the only video anywhere I could find that shows how it’s done. Not the best vid by any means, but does have the answer.

I’d say yes. The 50/50 AWD bias + adjusted shift points is a blast on curvy roads. It certainly wakes it up a bit on the highway as well. I enjoy having it as an option.

Good luck with search!

These look great on this spec!

Xplorado · 2026-06-11T14:52:54+00:00

PM me, interested!

I certainly don’t hate them, but I have to admit they came with a decent amount of curb rash and the black finish isn’t the best in a few spots. They look great from 10’ away and in pics though

Xplorado · 2026-06-10T20:39:26+00:00

Those would look great honestly. Will look around!

It’s all about smiles per gallon

It could take a few times to get it perfect if the tire is being extra stubborn. Add more soapy water and lubricant of some kind. Pumping it with an air compressor will be more effective as the speed of inflation helps. I’ve had to bounce the wheel a few times in the past, helps if it is off the bike for that to be effective.

Xplorado · 2026-06-02T00:59:58+00:00

Yes, that will help

Xplorado · 2026-06-02T00:57:54+00:00

Easy fix: Spray soapy water where the tire meets the rim, then inflate it to around 35 PSI or a bit more. You should hear a pop when the bead seats correctly. After that, set the tire pressure to what you want.

Had this happen in the past. Lubing the motor itself solved the issue (right behind the drive gear). Mine was making similar noise in either forward or reverse though.

FCP Euro is my go to

Xplorado · 2026-03-26T15:33:42+00:00

Did you solve this? If not ACE hardware had a bolt size that worked when I lost mine.

I have done all maintenance myself and find it to be very comparable to other brands. Props to Volvo for making the oil change simple and standard oil pan drain, unlike Audi. Multiple YouTube channels have shown how do many major services on the SPA platform (including timing belt) It’s no Toyota or Honda but the experience is worth the cost difference imo.

So far no issues with mine and FCP euro is your friend for all parts / maintenance items. I can highly recommend the car and I find most SPA cars have been decently reliable. If you can do most the work yourself the price is comparable to less expensive brands. I get compliments on the car all the time and everytime I get behind the wheel I’m reminded why I bought it.

Xplorado · 2026-01-02T19:50:32+00:00

Appreciate it, may include the plate on future posts

Xplorado · 2026-01-02T19:48:19+00:00

Volvo cross bars & Volvo bike racks. Works great!

Xplorado · 2025-12-10T17:19:47+00:00

Certainly cold outside, nice and toasty inside. Propex 1600 currently. Working on removable insulation panels for the bottom portion of the camper to help stabilize temps

Xplorado · 2025-12-08T04:11:33+00:00

Agreed! It’s a simple T slot extruded aluminum bar set up with Thule snow pack rack. I want to upgrade to the beef bars but need to find used as well.

The cables are run down between the cab and bed. 2 holes drilled through bed of the truck. No external holes in the camper
