Rear differential, radiator needed replacement at 50K, many many other things, this is just the most recent.
In 5 years of ownership and caring for this car as if it was our child, we could not recommend it. Money sponge is exactly right. It requires a lot of upkeep and repair at a premium price. Both labor and parts are at robbery prices. We have unloaded this car after putting $3K into it this year and have bought a Toyota Camry. We are over having cars of status, prestige and name brand and now just want something where the repair bills will not as much as our monthly payments, and where we won't constantly wonder, what next?
Just bought uk supplied xc70 are oil leaks on differential
common after just 12k not impressed with such an expensive model which is supposed to be bomb proof.
2000 XCV70
The car has drained the battery five times in six years. We have replaced the alternator and the fuel injection module. It still died. Several different mechanics have not been able to find the problem.
We are getting rid of it to save money!
