Dose the xc70 and xc90 suffer from angle gear trouble. Thinking about getting one instead of the s60
Dose the xc70 and xc90 suffer from angle gear trouble. Thinking about getting one instead of the s60
dunno mate but a local dealer has an x reg P2 xc70 for £4000, at was a 2.4t. they were offering a full warranty, so perhaps they were confident that it wasn't about to shat its box out or set fire to it's own speedo!
19t, greens, 3" inlet, 3" downpipe with race cat, V70R catback, autotech map...
310.2bhp / 333ft/lb
2016 Swedish Day UK "Best Modified Swede"
SOLD
Got an old discovery now.
Xc90 suffers angle gear failiure and lots of other waller emptying nasties
Angle gear collar stripping is common, more so in the heavier 90 than the 70, but both do suffer it.
AFAIK the collar was redesigned in '06 and now it's stronger, the pre 2003 cars have a viscous coupling and should be avoided if possible....

Ok cheers. Sounds like they are a nightmare already.
