Default Buying a 2003 XC90 T6
Hi guys

I'm currently looking at a XC90 T6 from 2003, but would like a few tips on what to look our for when buying it.

Any advice on what the weak areas are for this engine and model year ?

Cheers
Justice

Don't do it. Avoid the T6 like the plague!! Do some research because the transmission on those are crap. The most reliable engine for the XC90 is the 2.5T.

Not even if I get the transmission checked before buying it?

It is really that bad?
