We bought this 2015 xc 60 with 100km. Nice looking vehicle and handles fine. Maintenace nightmare. Had to replace the alternator. $1,900. Had to remove the intake manifold to accomplish that. Now the blower motor needs replacing and we have a quote $2,000. Have to remove the dash to install a blower motor. 20 years of Volvo loyalty has come to an end.

Love our gently used 2015 Volvo XC60 T6 Turbo wagon. 130k miles on it and we have only had to replace the alternator and battery. Does not burn oil, does not leak oil. Has been a very reliable car. If you do the maintenance and change the oil every 5 thousand miles it will last a long time. Regular oil changes are very important as with any car. Most people don’t do this. The 6 cylinder is one the best engines they have made. Timing chain will last a long time as long as you put new clean oil in the engine every 5k miles. No transmission problems and no differential problems for us. No one likes to spend $2,000 for the 90k service but it’s a big one. Important preventative maintenance will take this car to 200,000 miles. Read the owners manual and follow the service schedule.

I bought this car used just a few months ago and I am having to sell it at a loss. It literally looked brand new and drives just fine. I am a car guy and have owned over 40 cars. I would say this car is OK over all but does not do anything exceptionally well. The dash layout is confusing and my wife just can’t sort it out. The ride and brakes are not inspiring. The thing that absolutely makes this car a total gamble for ownership is the oil consumption issue. Obviously the reason the previous owner sold it. The add oil light came on a few weeks of ownership and having to add a quart every couple of tanks. I now know this is a well documented problem. In their effort to squeeze every mpg out of this engine they installed too soft piston rings to reduce friction and in the process have made it a ticking time bomb. They were doing engine rebuilds under warranty only. This situation leads to all kinds of expensive failures. Do not purchase a used xc60. You have been warned. This company is no longer Swedish owned but Chinese. Do your research!!!!!!!!!
