Car reluctant to start after a 10 minute stop when 4 gallons of gas were left in the tank, then got "engine running slowly" warning light. Dealer could find nothing wrong. Dealer suggested that there is a design flaw in this Volvo year/model in which spirited rural driving when fuel tank has as much as 1/4 tank left - involving sharp turns -- introduces air into the fuel line, which has to work itself through the engine before it will run properly. I am doubtful. Since the car was in for 40000 mile service, I insisted that they look into the low-gas-tank engine not starting problem more thoroughly. Accordingly, they ran another diagnostic which showed that it was not a design flaw, as it had been suggested to me, but a sensor problem, and they needed to replace the engine speed sensor and 2 crankshaft position sensors. driver side front foot panel loose.

Totally in shock that at just under 42k, needed rear rotors and pads? It seems rear pads are much thinner and wear faster as they are part of straight line braking, and are always active. Fortunately, I won a $500.00. volvo voucher which I applied. I guess this is the price of safety. I was given option to NOT replace rear rotors, but, in for a penny in for a pound. Seems rear pads are always being used. Rears were at 2mm, fronts at 10mm. Seems volvo should have used a thicker rear pad.

The blower for the passenger compartment climate control (heating and air conditioning) had the well-known, Volvo bearing squeal. It was slight when purchased (104,000 miles) and progressed until unbearable (108,000 miles). Since the blower is tucked way up inside the dash, removal and replacement is time-consuming and costly, with shop estimates from $1000 to $1500. I removed the front cowl, and using a flashlight, mirror, and long piece of small diameter tubing (you can use something else I'm sure), I put TriFlow lubricant into the end of the tubing and snaked it in to the front motor bearing (could see that the shaft was a little rusty). I could only put one drop on the bearing at a time, but the bearing was totally silent for almost a year (including freezing winter temps) and is just beginning to occasionally make a little noise. I'll do it again and use more lubricant this time. If you're a DIYer (or if you can get your mechanic to do this), this method saves a lot of time and money.

Car brought in for routine oil change and few minor problems. I noticed it was not as peppy and pointed this out to my service advisor. They then diagnosed as a problem with turbocharger and replaced same plus catalytic converter. Check Engine Light appeared 2.5 weeks after 1st repair of turbocharger and driving ~+300 miles. The check engine light was attributed to not draining oil pan after reinstallation of turbocharger (from prior visit).

This is visit 3 related to two earlier problems. Check engine light appeared again ~2 weeks after last repair. Taken back to dealer who then replaced some sort of sensor and updated software. Check engine light again came on after several days of driving. This all seems related to the original reinstallation of the turbo unit. Unit supposedly repaired again (this is trip 4 for same issue). Car was not peppy ... on examination by Volvo Turbocharger replaced and along with it catalytic converter.  Check engine light came on. After examination, it appears to be due to oil in turbocharger pan not drained when turbocharger replaced earlier in the month.
