I'll have to check that place out. It's in my neck of the woods (even though Oxford is kind of in the middle of nowhere)

Nice! I went with the Continental VikingContact 7's on both my V70 and my S90 this time around.

They are amazing, and were quite affordable on Tirerack.

Ah, No way this is a serious thread.

It is common for the coating on the reflector bowl on the Volvo HID factory headlight assemblies to go bad.

Normally shiny and reflective, they turn dark and non-reflective.

If this is the...

Some pulling is normal on certain road surfaces.

Most highways have a slight sideways grading to them in order to allow water to run off. This slight grading (angle), depending on your tires and...

I was a skeptic, but they talked me into it.

Haven't had the car long enough to use it yet though.

Which size did you get them in? You paid a bit more than I did.

The rule of thumb with winters is always to go narrower (and if possiblle smaller rim, taller sidewall) than you use in the...

You mean the decorative panels on the inside of the door?

I replaced the brushed aluminum ones for wood in my S90 recently. You just pry them out with something that is not metal (so you don't...

They should ALL work, at least after a certain version of Android (forget what the minimum is, but it came out pretty long ago at this point)

You may need to do some workarounds to make them work...

Well, what do you know, yes it does.

Total surprise. I double checked the listing from back when I bought the car, it never mentioned anything about the air suspension. The sales guys...

What on Earth is a PIT?

Just keep in mind that wheel offset doesn't mean much without knowing the width of the rim.

Assuming it is the same width as a stock 18" 8" wide rim most S90's came with, it will probably be fine...

Hmm.

In none of the listings when I bought the thing, or in any of my conversations with the dealer did it say it had the air suspension.

I might not have bought the car had I know it came...

So,

Today while I was snow blowing my drive way I parked my S90 on the street, backed up close to a snow bank


As I got out of the car I heard an unusual whining noise from the back. I...

FWIIW, I have occasionally experienced a fair amount of torque-steer in my (former) FWD 2017 S90 and (current) FWD 2018 V90 -- and I am not all that aggressive a driver. Be that as it may, I have...

So, I don't know if you have made up your mind, or bought anything yet, but I decided to do some research for you.

In general we want to go narrower if we can for winter tires, as when ccutting...

I just took another drive, not in the S90, but in my 20 year old front-wheel drive V70.

These Continental ContiVikingContact 7's are amazing.

I went up and down as many unplowed hilly back...

We got our first snow yesterday.

I took this as an opportunity to test the Continental VikingContact 7's.

First I drove the S90 T6 over a snowy patch of road, and gunned it. The car launched...

I was getting really confused about these sizes, until I noticed you were talking about CC's.

Apparently they came with very different sizes stock compared to the regular S/V90's

Volvo's get modded plenty, but it's usually smaller and older models.

I hven't seen too many people go nuts with PSA S90's or V90's yet.


Probably because car modding is more popular among...

I grew up in a small town (by international standards) in Bohuslän named Stenungsund. Just before I started high school (gymnasiet) my family moved in to Göteborg.

Even back then (80's and 90's)...

The wording of these laws are subtly different from State to state, but the way I have interpreted it is that you should never be driving in the passing lane unless you are passing.

If you are in...

I had this happen with a loaner XC60 from my dealer once. My S90 has never done it though.


What I would recommend is have the dealer make sure all of your software is up to date.

Then wait...

Thank you for that.

Would you mind speaking a little bit about what you did and how?

In what function?

First thing I do when I get a new phone is to disable all cloud and assistant features.

To my knowledge I'm not using any features like this on my Volvo, but if I am without...

I find the opposite to be true.

I usually drive fast. 85-90mph on the highway if conditions allow. If I can do so in the middle or right lane, I move over to those lanes.

Usually what...

I may have to if it is compromising my privacy.

Do you know anything I do not.



Thchnology can be awesome.

Tehcnology for technology's sake is a terrible thing.

Yet in Scandinavia they never have this problem.

This entire country has an attitude problem. The whole "screw you, I know better, and don't care about the rules" streak.

We could learn a lot...
