Hello all,

New member here with an '05 XC90 V8 AWD bought new in January '06 (okay, so mywifedrives it 95% of the time...).

Anyway, it's been a great vehicle, beenpretty much problem free since we got it. I enjoy it every chance I get to drive it(usually thelong hauls), and my wife drives it70 miles daily for work.I'm still surprised this thingaverages 19.5 to 20.0 mpg with that 311 hp Yamaha motor in it.

We're up to 53K miles on it, and, since I've enjoyed the forum posts andhave a few maintenance related questions, it's high time I joined up.

I'll post some pics when I find 'em.I had several from when we first bought it but danged if I can locate them at themoment!

 

Welcome to the forum, I hope you find it helpful in maintaining your XC90. Also glad to hear your XC90 came with Yamaha gearbox.

Be sure to post questions in the XC90 forum, but if the forum is too slow, try General Volvo Chat, as many of us visit there quite often.

Best of luck to you & your wife & Happy New Year,


JPN
