Amigo ! Among others Volvos, I have the 'same' 2007 XC70. However, mine is the D5 (D5244T4) with the 6 gear auto. I live in the Swiss mountains. My median/average Diesel consumption is mixed (highways, roads, moderate-off roads) is 6.1 l Diesel, that is just HALF of your fuel consumption ! As 185 hp/136 hp is little for a 2.4 l diesel, I most get a chip tuning (not from Heico/Polestar !), very proven, and increase power -> 227 hp (166 kW) and the torque from 400 Nm -> 517 Nm. (All tested on the 4x4 bed). Consumption is even ca 1/2 lower, and the D5 engine is very robust, rarely had a problem. These engines have often made up tor 400 Tkm, with the chip, then we sold them to export. The only weakness is the Aisin TF-80 auto. But with flushing the auto very 100 Tkm, you can avoid problemes. But: this is NOT an OFF-ROADER. To get up to the Alps we have the Discovery 4 3.0 SD (diesel of course).

@@CarCurious Resist the urge to have an V70R. The brakes are amazing and it will accelerate on the highway for days, but the suspension is only built for smooth pavement no matter what mode it is in. I live in Pennsylvania and if I have the suspension in anything other than comfort, I feel crack/dip/slight imperfection. I even changed all of the struts and have the 17" wheels. Oh, I also own a P2 S80 and XC90, the turning radius on all of these cars is horrible. If you are shopping for V70R's, don't be like me and get the 04-05 automatics, they are torque limited to 242 lbft in 1st and 2nd gear and then only make 260s in 3rd. No where near the 295 that the manual cars make. Try the S60R's if you are looking for speed, they are much lighter. Good luck!

I recently sold my Brand New 2021 Kia Niro because there was a jerking issue and Kia wouldn't fix it so I decided to sell it back to them and I got more than what I paid because of the car market a few months ago was crazy. Called the pops to ask him about another car I liked and instead he offered to give me a 2005 Volvo XC70. That's why I'm on this channel today so we can be Volvo Buddies! lol I grew up at Volvo Dealerships because my Dad is a Master Tech on them and now has his own shop so of course he is going to give me Volvos. First car at 16 was a 1984 240 model so here I am again with another Volvo. It's Destiny and this particular model actually looks pretty incredible for what it can do off road! Enjoyed your cool and funny video and now can't wait to get mine!

@@-T90Vladimir Hi There, it was happening from stop to 1st gear. I found others online having the same issue. Kia first replaced the dual clutch on my car so they originally acknowledged something was wrong but the problem wasn’t resolved and because the problem was intermittent it was hard to make it happen but Kia did nothing to try and get it fixed after that and corporate wouldn’t help so either I was stuck with possible lemon car or I could sell it. I sold it back to them to have a clear conscious because they know the history on the car but still feel bad for whoever they sold it to because of course they aren’t going to say anything is wrong with it. I didn’t want to sell it but in the end I’m glad it worked out this way because now going to get a solid car and Volvo has much better reputation and customer service then the lower end cost cars out there Kia being one of those.

@@-T90Vladimir do you have a Niro? Some people I found it was also happening in those gears. It is something wrong with the transmission. Someone finally got Kia to replace that and the problem was gone. I tried everything first to get it resolved as I really liked the Niro, great gas and much better price than pretty much all hybrids but that jerking sometimes was very bad and I was worried a car would hit me from behind because there is no notice so I finally just had to give it up sadly. My Dad said this Volvo is an amazing car. He said the new Volvo’s aren’t as good and also has a lot more electrical problems so this era is very good and solid car so I say go for the Volvo! 😁

Ok, young fella, you got me. I Subscribed. Your mastery of photo-video production is second to none and the elements you've added to keep the viewer connected are superb. And, you did a great job of showcasing the Volvo XC70. I have a 2001 V70XC (same color as yours: silver outside with the baseball-stitched chocolate brown leather seats) and also a 2004 XC70 that I just picked up for either parts or repair, not sure yet. That one is black with a somewhat lesser quality interior: black seats but not nearly as nice as the V70. They are great cars and everyone who has ever owned one loves them-hands down. I picked up the V70XC in non-running condition after the timing belt jumped, ruining the valves, but I found another head and put it back together. The arrival of the car and some of the engine work videos are on my channel. I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Greetings and Best New Year's wishes from British Columbia, Canada.

There is something special about owning a vehicle that was $50,000 plus in Canada when new, and I bought it for $6000 just over 2 years ago. Granted, I have put money into it, ...but, it rides like a dream, I've even got over the shock of premium gas....but it would never be a daily in the recent gas hell of life, when Vancouver Canada reached 2.40 per litre for regular...not premium, which meant you had sell your house to buy gas.......never looked actually...Every dollar I put into this indestructible vehicle is worth it....Loved your video.....

Sweet ride. I just got a 2010 XC70 T6 when my prior car finally died. I’m loving it, it gives up nothing in terms of what I do in mild off-road (I had a compact SUV before) but it’s way more comfortable, responsive, and quick through corners than a typical SUV. And the long wheelbase plus the excellent AWD means winter is a joke to the Swede.

with these P2 V/XC70(R) always go for the facelift-models (2005-07) and choose the one with better service history. And, for example, prefer a original Radio (HU 650/850) with telephone integration over a sunroof (if choices have to be made ;-) ). Outside US go for the Diesel (better fuel economy, 2.4l 185hp, and also good for 200km/h autobahn-traveling) ... if your an accessory-hunter (like me) there are quirky options 🙂 ... search for the 40/20/40 Backseats and there is a mini-fridge/armrest available for this 20 position ... tailgate table ... second back row ... there is an aftermarket-Bluetooth-kit, from D5T5, for the original telephone (no need for clunky dashboard addons) ... but still I search for a nice upgrade for my RTI-Navigation 😞

make sure you maintain the haldex pumps and AWD systems, they tend to fail on these cars rendering them FWD

I have the 2004 XC70 and replaced the audio system with a JL Audio AMP, 4 Focal door Speakers and a Kenwood Deck. Looking to add a Subwoofer. Later I will be working on replacing Alternator, Waterpump, Injectors, and hoses, engine mounts and possibly Getting a bigger turbo. It's a great budget off roader that will outlast most cars out there lol.

With Volvo introducing the EX line of electric cars, i hope they can bring the EX70 (or EX60) to market, an aerodynamic, slightly smaller XC70 clone, that fixes all the issues it had, has no maintenance, and is a good vehicle for all cases (weather or road). (as a modern electric car in the shape of an XC70, it should also introduce active air suspension with an air outlet for a camping air mattress or tire inflation.)

An EX70 would be neat, I hope they make some cool ev wagons!

Appreciate the video! My partner who is not a car person was quite entertained. We are actually thinking of getting one as our second family car. Is yours a bright silver color? Love the wheel choice. They really give the car a nice modern look.

Hello, nice video, just bought myself an xc70 2005 2.5T am happy with it. Just wanted to ask what rim size is this? And what tire size you have mounted? And what tire manufacturer that is? Looks really great👍

I have 2004 xc70 with 96k miles. Just had to have the shifter replaced, which they couldn't find and had to get off eBay. Unfortunately now the manual drive on the left no longer works. The automatic is fine.

Thanks! Those are comet wheels from certain volvo models from 1998 to 2000. The previous owner spray painted these wheels trying to recreate the anthracite finish these wheels originally had. Mine are chiping, on the bright side it makes me not worried about ruining them offroad 😄
