2016 XC90 T8 banging issue in rear?
This is my first post and I was hoping it would be a better topic then help! My wife has a 2016 T8, love the truck, but lately I have been having a serious issue with a reduced power turtle light and loud bang coming from the back under certain conditions. So background: 58k miles regularly maintained, when the car has about 1/4 tank of fuel left and 1/4 or less charge intermittently there is a reduction in power, sometimes a loud bang sound coming from the rear of the truck (electric motor I assume) and the most frustrating part doesn't always throw a check engine light. I don't know if anyone has experienced this but trying to explain it to a Volvo tech without codes is challenging to say the least. Any help is much appreciated!
P.S. - wife just called and said it happened again on a full tank of fuel and charge and still no code????? |
Banging from rear / Limp mode
did you get this sorted? I have had the same issue with my 2016 XC90 T8. I get loss of power at low speed and loud bangs at random intervals. Mine has done just over 70k miles and has developed this issue after a main dealer visit. They are telling me to change the air con compressor, which I think is absurd and it is very expensive. I’m keen to find someone with similar issue to help understand the problem. Unfortunately, I don’t feel my local dealer has the right experience to resolve this. Their chief mechanic hasn’t completed his Hybrid training so is replying on video calling for help and guidance!

I would also check the local Forums in the UK if there is anyone they trust to work on their cars. If their head mechanic has not experienced a hybrid before it's probably not the right shop, they are just going to keep throwing parts at it..... |
