Volvo suvs are generally soft roaders. They're not seriously off-road capable from the factory.

QED.

@Kingreign, you basically sound like someone who had never use or driven a Volvo.

NOTE THE WORD IN THE VIDEO REVIEW OF THE XC60
He says *Basically Very good Of-Road Vehicle*

I say this always "It is people who have never used a Volvo that says all the Bu** sh*t about the Sweet Ride"

But you ego and trubled innerman will not let you keep quiet on thing you don't know. You just want to talk on everything �

This is Sweet to behold

Hi, I am considering a v70 or S60 Nigerian used, please i want to know as compared to MB C180, how is the fuel economy like? How is the maintenance like? What are the common problems with the cars, which is a better option between the V70 and S60?

08070513316
Thank you.

to start with C180 is a 1.8L I4 engine while V70 and S60 hav there engine capacity options 2.2l, 2.4l, 2.4l+T 2.5l+T.
now depending on ur requirements you go for Versatility 70 /Sport 60
V70 is more of work and hard jobs, sites, farms travels etc with very large cargo space. S60 is fun, trips, travels with limited trunk space.
both cars a very durable and maintenance is almost same. make your choice as pa ur needs.

Meanwhile, I encourage everyone to take a look under their vehicles today.

My XC90 brought up a Check Engine which turned out to be Catalytic converter issue

I accidentally took a look under the vehicle and saw that the Catalytic converter had actually been cut open in 2 places and welded.

I failed to inspect underneath the vehicle properly it appears.

What I'm mystified about is how it passed scans and didn't throw a light about the Catalytic Converter for a whole month of hard driving.

The ECU wasn't cleared and threw up some other diagnosis at point of purchase, but not catalytic converter

When I clear it myself now, it usually shows up within a day... Really neat trick.

if you have taken it to mechanics and left it there to come back and take the car even in less than 10mts they will have removed it. so it is possible you didn't buy bit like that but was removed later from u. try thing through becos this wicked guy remove cat from cars not only when you come to work on exhaust.

Says who, I like anything beautiful but I just don't have money for the Volvo car I like yet.... The ones I see here are the ugly ones to me

powerful rides don't look to flashy, drive one of those beast and I bet you will agree they are BEAUTIFUL RIDES�

I can clearly see that all the people's coment and rant against Volvo Cars are just feeling oppressed with the Volvo presence. that been said.
b4 I drive a Volvo, I have driven cars
my 1st car was gulf, brand new Hilux, Old Nissan Premera, Kia Rio, 08 Camry, 07 Accord, Benz E500, Mazda 626, Carina E, 06 Civic, Great Wall pickup b4 I now bought and drove my 1st Volvo in 2014.
now from all this cars I hav tested in my experience I can only love 1 car, VOLVO.
from 2001 V40 GDI now 2006 S60.
no regrets no going back. I love these cars called Volvo. *not by budgets but by choice* that satisfaction, comfort and confidence I get in the Volvo is only matched when I was driving the E500 Benz but that car no for those who are filled with big Tommy �� you kno what a saying na,

gat a Volvo and be happy for life.
drive a Volvo and you will dislike other brands.
*mind you no car is perfect.
thanks n out.

a good battery should last about 5 years.
but unfortunately I have never seen any last beyound 2yrs in nigerial.

I normally don't like to buy used thing.
I always buy brand new battery into my car and they just begin to fail at about 20 to 25 months of use.

this is due to may factors,
sub standard quality
old vehicle
bad road
bad maintenance cultural
over heating
over or under charging
etc.
but sure if you buy a new battery and you get up to 24morhs, it about ok in this part of the word.

TGIF.

komekn:
I just wondered why not.

The first generation XC90 with the 2.4 diesel engine will on the highway give you about 40mpg. It means I can drive from Lagos to Abuja with near quarter tank left or more.

That's so impressive.
I tthink a good Diesel Mechanic who knows his job should be able to work on the car,just saying.
They use the Diesel engine a lot in Europe.
But soon as the car arrives nigeria our selfish mechanic will ensure the engine is yanked out and replaced with the type of engine they can fix so you remain with them.
I witnessed one recently.

Thanks a bunch Val.
Much love mate.
Pls just had me to the Whatapp forum, very important

Mist100:
Thanks. Fixed. The connector was actually out of place.


I'm beginning to think that Honda is actually fragile.

�� thanks it was that minor and you seek advice from knowledgeable ppl b4 going to mechanics, they would hav exploited you with that little socket.
the last ppl that worked on the car were too careless with the car and it almost cost you a fortune.
happy for you.

ncoolsome:
Op we should always let d professionals do their job before on contractor wld say "u sabi calculate abi" then end up using one bag of cement to mix 100 bags of sand..

if a workman decides to waste ur materials/money because you know, then prosperity is far from such workman. I will remain poor for a long time.
it is good what you doing is open to all and that's why the white do better than us in most area of life.

InvertedHammer:
Good information.

Verily...there is something about mm that irritates me.

I find inches more appropriate.

/

yes. inches ok but mm/mtr is SI Unit.
world standard method of measurement.
still use ur inches but get familiar as there are places you can't work if you don't know measurements in meters.
mm, cm, mtr, km. OR
inches, feets, miles.
it's easier to grade in mtrs that to grade with the old way if you can learn it, you will love it.

1st you need to understand that the odometer is not connected to the engine but the wheels.
so odometer could run 200k km on 3 engines (replacement one after another packup).
2nd is if your engine is well maintained, it can actually run the body till warn out.
3rd is Volvo av a High mileage Club in Europe where High milage is a pride and you get the 1st badge as a member when your odometer hits 500,000km.
so my Volvo V40 2001 is 265,238km and still rocking it. if allowed, I want to drive the car till it hits 1,000,000km.

so bros, pls rock your ride on and maintain it well. it can serve for a life time.�

does this mean the hyundai has not work since November till now?

thanks so much,@magnumwhales.
the car is in lagos, Iyana-itire, with the mechanic.
I will sure call you soon.
I will really appreciate a dedicated work time on the car to get this issue finished once and for all as most Auto Electrician don't like to stay with a car for long, they abandon the car and go. start doing another everytime.
