My #S60T6RDesign really changed my perception of #Volvo, after coming from my 2005 #S60R. These P3 Generation Volvo's will probably be the newest Volvo's I will own. The fiery 3.0L T6 Engine is a beast!!

On year 3 of ownership of 2012 t6 R-design, other than suspension component replacement from enjoying the car too much, only major issues have been transmission leaks from cooler lines and constant strut tower mount replacement as this car loves to destroy them. There are some intermittent electrical problems with lack of media center audio output that can be fixed by cycling car off and on again. As well my backup camera despises hot days like yours and figits a bunch if left in the sun too long. However, all that changes when you take her to the snow where it will literally outperform every other car or truck, an animal in wintery conditions! Only car I have ever hit black ice in at speed, that spun out and straightened itself again, without making any collisions, only to continue driving like nothing happened less than a quarter mile later. Brilliant safety and power.

Awesome video! I have the 2012 s60 rd in black. I couldn’t stand the stock rims so I purchased the polestar rims like you were thinking about getting and I think it’s definitely worth it! The black rims and white body look awesome on yours for sure tho 🔥 right now I’m running the polestar tune with the tdi tuner box piggybacking on that along with the kpax exhaust and elevate air intake. This car stock was a beast since stock but now it’s pretty much my dream. Much love to Casper 👊

My favorite was the LS400.

You also need to change your pcv oil trapper , it’s essential in these cars ! If you don’t do it you’ll be leaking oil from everywhere, specially if you have over 100 000 miles.

You should also change the PCV-hoses and clear out the returnpipe, they're often clogged. It's a simple and cheap fix, but most people don't care about it and end up with more expensive repairs, due to engine oil leaks.

I notice al these vids of modern S60s are never "5 year update" or anything over 100k miles. Then you read the comments and figure out these are long term money pits. Sad. I really dont want a mazda6 :( My current car is a SAABaru from 2005. Almost zero issues! Rubbers changed out and basic maintenance plus good cleaning internals once year.

I wouldn’t call that a “cold” air intake. I’m sure it sounds cool, but it’s sucking in hot engine air. The factory box draws outside air from the grill. There’s a polestar cold air that’s functional but it’s stupid money.

Generally for all Volvo engines (except the Ford developed ones), they'll last forever as long as you maintain them. Most importantly change the timing belt, the PCV hoses, oil trap and clean out it's return pipe within service intervals. Obviously also do oil changes, filters and gearbox oil, everything is quite simple and cheap on Volvos. I had a first gen s80 t6 with 480 000km on it, the engine was running really good, but the gearbox broke (GM 4-Speed automatic)
