Hi all, first post and unfortunately not a happy one.
l have a MY13 XC90 T5 R Spec which l must say l have totally enjoyed driving and it has never failed me, never had an issue until now, it has 146,000 odd kilometres on it and the gear box has shit itself, l have had Toyota’s and Fords in the past with many more kilometres on them for both work and private use and have never blown a gear box.
l say l am not happy because l thought l was buying a premium product being a Volvo and a European car (this my first European car and most probably my last).
As much as l have loved the Volvo the dissatisfaction with the gear box going at such low kilometres has me removing a Volvo for my next car and from a learning process most if not all European cars.
Sorry to be a downer but l had to put this in writing and was wondering if anyone else has had any issues?
Have a nice day.
