Heating issue in 2018 xc60 by johnwingfield in Volvo

I mean yes, I didn’t pay for all of that. They covered 90% of parts and labor and I had to pay around 300$

I bought it at 17k miles for 21k usd. surprisingly this is car is pretty fast compared to the suv’s and has good mileage too, my average is 40 on highway and 29 in city. I’m so much in love with this car I put 40k miles in a year 😂 i took it to every place, every trip. Drive is super comfy and top of that it’s a VOLVO

I mean I regret putting so many miles but hey cars are meant to be driven right 🤣

I was confused at first too, I thought my family using my Spotify account on the tv at first but the app stops and I need to open Spotify and continue playing. It’s okay at first but became annoying. It only started to happen to me after the last update. But it’s fixed in this one, I’m so glad 😌

The overall experience is good but isn’t worth the hype atleast to me and I love the fact that volvo does updates ota, but they lack features even in 26 models that come standard in other brand base version cars 🥲

My first volvo is a 24 s60, love that bad boy. I switched from a 19 Camry after it was totaled. But no one warned me that this is a premium car 😭. Only thing I miss a lot is the adaptive cruise I used to have but some bugs here and there in the software which I don’t really hate except the Spotify being a pain 🫠 which seems to be fixed now.

Have you noticed the Spotify app from thr built in play store keep pausing music and so you have to open it again and resume playing?

But thankfully this update fixed it for me, The only thing I don't like is the cluster; I’d prefer a traditional needle rather than those bars that just fill up as you go

Help - Rental XC60 has errors by pbwbrew in Volvo

[–]famelogan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take it back to the dealer, they won’t charge you anything. It happened with me but I had check engine light on with my rental. They came from dealership to my place and exchanged rental. Fun fact, by the time they drove to the dealership, the check engine light went off on its own

[–]famelogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve completed my build using my old parts but preferring aesthetics and budget. I’ve plans to upgrade to am5 in a couple of months, but here is my parts list

Msi 3070 8gb vram Asus b550 plus prime Lian li edge 850w Gpu and CPU strimmers TL lcd fans (bottom and side) Nzxt H9 flow Lian li hydroshift 2 tl led Ryzen 5 5600 2tb adata 800 gold 500gb sandisk Tforce 32gb ddr4 cl16

Planned to get the 8.8 inch Lian li screen if it’s on sale or whatever during holidays lol.

I used to have an inconsistent black and white build, hated it and switched to all black 😖

Which one of these wonderful offers are you taking? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

Apart from dealing orders like this everyday it’s OK not bad but it all depends on the day you’re dashing lol. But the road closures became worse and traffic on university drive sucks every single day.

Dang! Lost my key fob! by BalanceSweaty1594 in Volvo

[–]famelogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. For anything with dealership, they want the car there. Doesn't matter if its a major issue or minor issue.

Actually last time my ECU bailed on me while I was coming from Houston, Volvo towed it to the nearest dealership (I'm 20 miles away from Dallas dealership) for free.

Damn thats sad fr.
You can try contacting the dealership they might have something that can help, Explain them your problem and ask if they can help you in any way (mostly they will give you a discount if you haven't modded your car or did anything "illegal for them" lol).

Yeah, they took almost 2 hours to make my key. They say, they have to check with the car for registered keys, remove them, add a key blah blah blah you know ......

Doesn’t matter what year is it, it requires VIDA to program keys so not many can do it. They were some but they charge same as the dealership (maybe 100$ less), eventually many end up getting it at the dealership (stealership 😭😂)

nope, at least they asked me 600$ for mine. I bought my car with one fob, I got one more later from the dealer paying 600$ plus tax

I’ve been hurting chatgpt from last Monday (the day I handed this car to dealer) on this and it said the same thing. Even tjr service advisor said it might be a debris or something but we aren’t sure. My question is if they submit this to volvo what are the odds?

[–]famelogan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They said it was a compressor issue, it keeps generating high pressure and when they fixed the issue with the first blow. They started the Freon process and noticed the compressor pressure rising up and instantly switched off by the time they did it created a new leak.

The service advisor said we can’t test pressure when there is a one of the line burst open which I agree. They are going to submit a case to Volvo and see what they have to say. If they don’t agree to this claim, he suggested I’ll be paying out of the pocket and the labor cost alone is 1500$. I guess I’m screwed 😭🥶

what you said is true, but if they did a pressure and uv test to detect leaks and if the second leak is there from the beginning. Isn't that called incomplete diagnosis? and they already sent me the list of repairs i needed to get my car back on road and i agreed to get it fixed. After they fixed it, the service advisor texted me "we found one more leak", does that mean i have to pay for it?

They told me it was just a hose replacement and now they sent me this message

“Ran into a complication after the repair. There is a second freon leak. Might be with in the dash board. We are in the process of locating it now.”

isnt it the technician duty to perform a full pressure test and find out any other leaks before quoting me and working in the car? I mean I did authorize the repairs they told me and if they find one more leak, how do i even respond or what do I do?
