Michelen X-ice for my XC60. Now I crunch everywhere I go but necessary in this environment.
Reviews of spare parts for Volvo XC60
I’ve got a ‘21 XC60 T5 Inscription now with about 33k miles and absolutely love it. I’ve had a couple problems with the front, passenger side interior handle but they’ve been covered under the CPO ten year warranty. Wish it had full screen and wireless CarPlay but there are ways around it and replace the OEM brakes with better ones when it’s time as the Volvo ones suck as they wear quickly and unevenly. VERY happy with it.
I'm on my second set of Continental Extreme Contact DSW06 Plus for my XC60. I bought them because i want tires that won't let me down if I have to maneuver hard at high speed, have good heat tolerance, and have superb wet weather grip. I love these tires. They're not as soft a ride as some tires but they've never slid on me. I took my last set down to 2/32 and even then it had rock solid grip in the rain. The other nice part is that Continental warranties these to 40k miles and stands by it. I killed my last set in a little over 30k because of how I drive. They refunded me roughly 25% of what I originally paid for them which I put towards a new set. If they're still making these when the current set burns out I'll buy them again.
I replaced the alternator on a 2013 XC60 T6, which was driven by a coupler. The Bosch unit had a drive pulley (not really a pulley) already attached.
I just replaced the tires on my wife's XC 60 with Goodyear Weather Ready 2's because we also live where it snows.
I run Blizzaks all winter on 18" wheels. I ended up with those because when I bought the vehicle in Nov 2015 I asked for snow tires, because Alaska. Well, the dealer didn't have any in 20", in fact the whole town was sold out of them. The dealer made us a deal with new wheels and snow tires in 18". It has been handy, my husband swaps them in the driveway and I'm only on my second set of Blizzaks.
My 3 years old XC60 battery has been diagnosed as bad 55% last 2 weeks ago, I said to them keep it as I feel they are still good and road worthy. Gonna do a snapshot again at another 6 months to evaluate.
Beautiful 22" Pirelli Scorpion Zeros that blew out on me with about 25,000 miles (40,000 km) on them. Total garbage tires.
They are pretty mid and suck in snow. I had a loaner XC60 this weekend and took it up into the mountains and it felt downright dangerous.
I have had this same problem with these tires on my XC60. I had the tires warrantied through Pirelli the first time and they replaced all four with new tires, same model. Not less than a year later I started having the same issues.
