Volvo V70 Reliability And Durability: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2009 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 182hp 2.4L I5 Diesel 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
This car can easily go for 300.000 km, without problems, if the maintenance is done properly. full 2009 Volvo V70 review |
2007 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 161hp 2.4L I5 Diesel 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Long lasting engines. full 2007 Volvo V70 review |
2006 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Not a single issue with this vehicle!!! I actually wrote this review as my perfect history with this car is not showing up in the True Delta ratings. full 2006 Volvo V70 review |
2005 | 4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed automatic FWD |
More the durability than reliability. I fully expect the car to go at least 200K, or more. On the reliability end, I have not had any problems whatsoever at 40K, though have heard some repair horror stories about earlier models of this vehicle full 2005 Volvo V70 review |
2004 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
My wife and I are just about to roll 100k miles on our 2004 XC70 and it has been very reliable. Nothing but scheduled maintenance to report, and even the cost of said maintenance has been very reasonable—on par with Hondas that we've owned. The key to Volvo ownership is finding a reputable and reliable independent repair shop. In my area I have a guy who loves, lives and breathes Volvo. If I only had the dealer, I'd own another make. full 2004 Volvo V70 review |
2004 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
60,000 trouble free miles for 4 plus years. full 2004 Volvo V70 review |
2002 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 197hp 2.4L I5 5-speed automatic FWD |
(Besides the turbo), Volvos are reliable cars if you maint them. full 2002 Volvo V70 review |

2005 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Warranty repairs have been more than expected. Worse than a BMW, much better than a Mercedes. Question on long term durability of transmission which is bad for a car with reputation for 250K + miles. full 2005 Volvo V70 review |
2003 | 4dr Wagon 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed automatic FWD |
high cost of parts and repairs full 2003 Volvo V70 review |
2002 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 197hp 2.4L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
It has a reputation of faulty transmissions. We have not owned it long enough to have any problems yet. full 2002 Volvo V70 review |
2000 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 190hp 2.4L I5 4-speed automatic AWD |
Have owned many Volvos. hoping this is a 'good year'... Purchased because of low miles and and overall condition. full 2000 Volvo V70 review |
