Default 2003 XC90 t6

I purchased this vehicle in February, and a few days later a few warnings came up "anti-skid service required" and an air bag warning. I figured I would get in touch with a dealer and find out the problem but time got away. Last month a coolant low warning came up and I brought to a friends shop. I had to replace the water pump and timing belt. Problem fixed ($900)...yesterday driving I heard clicking from the front of the vehicle, got on the interstate and the noise got louder as I accelerated. I was worried but trying to get home. Then the vehicle started shaking and I couldn't drive over 50 without feeling like I would lose control. ANY IDEAS WHAT THIS COULD BE? Did I buy a bad vehicle? I always heard volvos were the best

Sounds a bit like loose lug nuts. In any case of course shaking is bad, but rarely is it anything hard to fix.


That said, the T6 suffers transmission problems, and you probably should get rid of it once you get it running well. You can google "XC90 T6 problems" and see what you think.

Yeah that Volvo is certainly not the best.
