Wow! A used car salesman that makes sure nothing is wrong when a sale leaves the lot?!! Incredible!!
Not all hero wear cape! ;)
Clyde Aguilar
Actually, it's how MOST used car dealerships operate when the car is over 10 grand.
We depend on repeat business and referrals.
Even if the car is below 3 grand, if it isn't at least 90 percent, we sell it at the auction.
Nothing costs more in headaches and time, not to mention bad feelings than selling a crappy car.
How many used cars lots would allow the Car Wizard, or the mechanic of their choice to inspect a potential sale? The Car Wizard has opened my eyes to potential issues after the warranty has ended, and particular makes have reached certain ages, particularly those cars with plastic parts. Used car lots won’t warn you the BMW timing chain plastic guide you’re interested in could fail.
@@clydeaguilar5525
When a customer wants to have a car pre inspected, the dealer has no choice in the matter. The car gets inspected by the customers mechanic. No matter who it is. Of course, they CAN refuse, and we had 1 shop that we blackballed because they were dishonest, but it's very rare. And it's done at the expense of the customer, so it's their right to pick. We always recommended to purchase an extended warranty for repairs that nobody could forsee. It was good for business and we never charged a surcharge for the warranty.
There must be consumer purchase laws in the US as well, he can’t knowingly sell a car with know faults, hence he has to fix them. Or person can return goods as not fit for purpose.
I'm getting accustomed to seeing the Bentley corpse in the background
It will never run OK. Harsh, but the truth.
Was thinking same thing few weeks ago ☺
Drive it off a cliff, you will save money. It was a dark time in Bentley's history. Since tyler sold the Rolls, i'm pretty much on a screw all the Bentley cars stretch, I'm pretty bitter about that sale of the rolls.
At this point, I really want to see if the Wizard can figure it out. Consider it a challenge.
In order to turn the engine off with the gear out of park, turn the start/stop knob to "STOP" and hold it there for a few seconds.
depends on the year/model region volvo you have.. some i you have to twist or press button twice or three times.. with my P3 XC70 for example the way it works is press engine start button to get warning to park it first and then turn off, then press it again and it will tell u to press once more to shut the car off in Neutral, press it again and car turns off.. but i seen it work 2x for other P3 volvos and for SPA/CMA volvos i seen twist and hold and twist and twist twice fast to shut it off in gear.
On my 19’ you can disable it in settings
@@Honeypot-x9s 2012 P3 S60 can be shut off in neutral with just one press. It gives the put in Park warming with beeps
@@Minto107 like i said it varies.. not entirely sure why. mine i cant just press and hold the start button i have to tap it once and hold it at very least or tap it 3x
Greetings from Sweden! As an former Volvo cars engineer it was a pleasant surprise to see a xc90, I was involved in the development of the engine management system. Great video! And as we say in Gothenburg (home of Volvo): Ha det gött!
That is not a good system, I thought we had a lemon, but they replace the management system alot. The start stop is hit and miss, screens black out, or it runs under 35 mph, the dealer had to fix and replace all this stuff after we bought it new. now after two new computers is working
One thing that caught my eye...That really clean and shiny rear subframe had a "Volvo Genuine Spare Parts" label on it, suggesting that the car may have been in an accident serious enough to require subframe replacement. I don't think factory installed parts have a "Genuine Spare Parts" label, but I could be wrong about that.
You are right
These are labels on original parts from factory, and in a long run It depends on cars usage and roads it has been on. I have xc70 from 1999 and still there are original labels on rear subframe, rear cv shafts, front cv shafts, front shock absorber, rear shock absorber, gearbox, angle gear... etc etc....ofcorse there are some missing, but still, i order some of my parts from those label numbers. The biggest queation is why bearing is out at only 93 000 miles....thats not right!!! In Euro spec brand new volvos those bearings should last atleast 400 000 kms it just cant go out that fast!!!!
The stickers look exactly like replacement parts on the rear control arms, I know I sell them
100% don't come out the factory with the stickers it's been f@#*3d about with 🤣🤣🤣
@@brettwilson9278 you sell stickers? I want some!
I own a 2009 XC 90, it has the 3.2 inline six. It is one of the best vehicles I have ever driven.
Right, this four cylinder will never make it.
Here is another example why the Car Wizard is a true professional. When he was positioning the car for the lift he moved the car by pushing on the tires versus pushing on the car body. That's a big deal. Thanks wizard.
Kitties and Cars... a whole new UA-cam algorithm..
@@ShortTermMemorie Bubbles!!!
Kitties in cars getting coffee...presented by Bubble’s and his food mountain
I work in the factory in Gothenburg and some of the parts under and in the car I pick and deliver to the assembly line. Starting to get bored working nights but the pay is really good🤘🇸🇪
Cool job but working nights causes poor health and health is the only true wealth.
The Chinese company that owns Volvo hasn't moved production to China
@@mybigfatpolishlife The S90 are build in China....
@@milojacobs1970 and the xc90's that are headed for the US market. Might be Xc60 aswell, not entirely sure about that.
They are trying to have some modells build in Sweden and USA and China. A marketing and spread out thing to these countries so the popular modells can be said to be manufactured in those countries. Then we will see if it works marketing wise and they keep doing it in the longrun or not.
Get a small wizard hat for the cat :³
Just await Halloween...!
I love the ongoing joke of Car Wizard Drinking whatever he sees.
I don't get it
I love it. haha
Except the water bottles in the yacht lmao
@@pastapylon3008 It was a missed opportunity.
The water was probably fine too.. watch Tom Scott's video where he drinks a really old bottle of water..
The brake caliper popping noise could be the ABS system self testing itself at 10mph.
My Volvo does it at 10mph every time I start the engine and drive off ... It's normal.
Beautiful cat btw!
My old Volvo used to do that as well. I thought it was a fault but could never figure out what…
Loooovvveeeee myself some Volvo
Who doesn't :p
until you have to work on them. This XC has a ton of electronic modules. And newer Volvo doesn't play nice with OBD2 scanners.
Love those "Thor's Hammer" headlights.
Why in the world there is an option for normal halogen lights without thor's hammers? It looks 10 years older 😁
@@huikkoster that was for 2016. 2017 and up added the standard LED headlights. I think the way that Volvo does their updates as the product ages is the reason for that. They like to add features and make a bunch of small changes each year rather than save those and larger ones for the midcycle update.
Greetings from Sweden! you have a great channel!
sweedies are great people!
Hej där.
Hallå!
man i love this, i have no clue about mechanics and working under the hood but if i can learn some by your calm and methodic explanations ill just be happy, it calms me listening to you explain stuff. thats a pretty though skill to master, to make people interested in watching YOU do stuff, and not always only the stuff you DO. youd be a great teacher for sure :D
That "Look what I found!" gag never gets old.
Got a Volvo advert before a video of a Volvo with an issue, gotta love advertising.
Yep, me too.
Same
I saw about 4 Polestar 2 ads during the running of this video. Its not all about Volvos :)
@@steveunderwood3683 Did you know Polestar is related to Volvo, Geely bought them to push electric in China, apparently.
Just bought a 15' V60 Polestar with the older inline 6, felt reassuring to see a modern Volvo holding up so nicely!
I feel like in 15 years that Volvo will still be just as appealing. What a nice looking Suv. It appears they only used steel where absolutely necessary on the underside where cars usually rust out.
They are. The XC90 may be 6 years old now, but they literally have so much presence and look fresh to this day. They tend to over-engineer their cars as well.
Swedish parmedic here. I drive the 2018 Volvo XC90 in my work at the ambulance. They are of course rebuilt with a carbonchassi at the back, also regular ambulance equipment as in all other vehicles we have... but the rest is pretty much standard. All in all it´s ok. It´s offroad capabilitys are very good, a little bit sluggish, cause the enginge is underpowered vs all it´s extra weight. But lots of room in the pasient-area and relaxing to drive. Thanx for the vid Wizard. Love your work!
I'm amazed how many Swedes have commented on this video! Hi from the UK by the way ;)
I was sat watching thinking how could such a nicely kept, four year old Volvo be making such a racket and then you said "93,000 miles". That's a lot, which makes the overall condition even more remarkable. When you had your "stethoscope" widget near spinning wheels I was thinking, this could good horribly wrong. Fortunately, you had it all under control. Thanks for the great video Mr & Mrs Wizard. :-)
Some cars have park overrides where you can shut them off in neutral or engage neutral while turned off. Depending on the individual car’s procedure, it might not be worth the hassle when putting it on the lift.
Volvo usually allows it by long-pressing the start button. Or double-pressing? Some version of it on the older models at least
@@rosen9425 On this you turn the knob to stop and hold it there.
@@darkiee69
My Volvo is old gen xD
@@darkiee69 i hope your black if your not your youtube name is extemely racist
@@somervillearron I'm not, and it's not.
Bun Bun looks like a very Mello cat. I think she really liked being held by Mr. Wizard.
I might have been building on this car. Was in the assembly factory in 2016 so if this passed during my working hours I might have been assembling either the cooler or front struts. Volvo has made a huge leap in terms of luxury since the introduction of the new XC90 and my V90CC I'm driving now is easily the best car I've ever owned.
Yup. I was coming of mechanical repair age around 1985 when everything started going electronic fuel injection in America. I had grown up learning all about carbs and distributors, etc - when suddenly the ENTIRE market changed. Everything was now computerized and EFI. About 85% of the old guys back then just bitched about this new fangled stuff and refused to learn it. I felt the same way, but saw that I had no choice if I wanted to keep up in the industry. Thank gawd I kept an open mind, because all those who refused to learn the new stuff went out of business really quickly!
Hello from Sweden here!
They are a great choise in the SUV market.
Thanks Car Wizard and mrs Car Wizard for an awesome video!
I picked up a brand new Volvo xc40 R design Pro in January, and I love it. By far the best car I've owned for a long long time.
Got it in Onyx black with the orange carpets and door cards😁😁😁
Nice spec, which engine?
@@qlus I went for the petrol T4. I looked at the T5, but I drive almost 100% in cities, so the extra power would have just been wasted.
Can't have the same fun we used to, too many speed cameras everywhere😆😆
Wish Volvo didn't get rid of the lava orange carpets 😔
That was one of the coolest options on any car.
Thanks for the fantastic service Wizard!!!!!
*waving* hi from Göteborg, Sweden, the heartland of Volvo
Not Beijing?
I thought it was China. I will not buy ANY car made in China.
@@fredwiley3731 volvos sold in usa is not made in china
Thank Car Wizard for showing us cars and telling us about them really appreciate it 🙏.
Hey Car Wizard and Mrs. Wizard -- thank you guys SO MUCH for your content. It has made this crazy pandemic much more palatable. I always look forward to your videos and now that you've introduced the Wizard Kitty Bun-Bun, hoping to see more of her too! She kind of looks like you, Wizard :)
for a 2016 car it looks pretty modern even 4 years later. good design.
Thanks Bob!
Who would have guessed that someday, Volvo would be making more attractive crossovers than BMW?
BMW stuck in the past with their BORING design.
Alfa on the other hand has simply a timeless design, because they changed nothing on the front.
The changes BMW is making just looks as BMW is just lazy.
@@VampirusX BMW has a horrible new design taste with the new front grills so can't see how it's the same, compare a 2004 7 series to a 2020 7 series, and Alfa is pretty much dead lol nobody cares about their mediocre quality cars.
Thanks for the Volvo tour. Impressive!
Sweden here!
Älskar din kanal / love your channel 😉 🇸🇪
This is what I was expecting Mrs. Wizard to drive when she needed a new ride!
Thank you Mr and Mrs Car Wizard. Hello from Sweden. Very nice to see a swedish car on your channel. Maybe The Car Wizard in the future will own a Volvo. I think they make great cars.
Two of my favorite things in one video: Cat and Volvo
Thank you Wizard!
Thanks for the video Wizard, was happy to be introduced to your kitty 🐈
love the dynamic with Mr & Mrs Wizard!
Great video! Would love to see more volvos on the channel. Greetings from sweden
I've also been very impressed with these newer XC90's. Very good SUVs! Hope to see the Turbo R out on the streets again soon!
That Bentley belongs in the junkyard
Cameron Peralta but it’s such a cool car! As long as it keeps bringing in the views and paying for itself it’s worth it! 😀
they've been out since at least 2017, probably 2016 offered them as well.
93k and it’s so clean!!
Love it!! I absolutely love it
As a Volvo tech. The issues I’ve seen on these, regardless of engine. Upper ball joints, outer steering rods, top mounts and lots of software bugs. That’s about it. Underbody is pretty solid, they chew through brake pads and tyres quickly though.
Heavy beast, allowed to eat tyres and brake pads. Same for the steering and suspension parts.
Software bugs . . . it's a given. Damn things have computers even for the hood latch (I made that up but I wouldn't be surprised if it happens to be true). Sadly most Asian makers are doing the same too.
That has almost certainly been in some kind of accident, the rear subframe looks new because it is new, all the bolts in the rear appear to have whiteness marks on them showing they have been recently worked on and the subframe even had a Volvo genuine spare parts logo on it
Yup, I thought that. The spares label gave it away.
The whole underside looks almost new to me, except the rusty exhaust
Interesting
Yep, no way that rear end is a 90000 mile old rear end.... it’s waaaay too clean.
Andy Guest where do you see it?time frame ?
I'm telling you, working as a service porter at my local Volvo dealer... I have never seen so many issues with cars with no pattern.
The only common problem I see on these XC90s is the piston rings due to oil consumption. Other problems range so much I can't remember any. They LOVE throwing CELs. Had a couple oil traps that go (you will know if it's an oil trap when you hear a metallic squealing noise when you start it up), but aside from the wide variety of smaller issues, these B4204... engines are alright as far as reliability is concerned. They aren't a Toyota, but they aren't the most unreliable engine.
Great teamwork Mr and Mrs Wizard.
Few things can soothe the scorn of non-payment from a client like a new car wizard video. Keep on with the good work my guy.
Enjoying your videos and bits of Wizard Wisdom
A Swede waves back! I love this series.
Good video once again, thank you.
Car Wizard and Mrs Wizard joined by - drum roll - the Cat Wizard 😺
Such a lovely car - under the boot/trunk floor the plastic reinforcement is shaped like a spider web with a little spider, the Swedish flag is awesome . Great video as always Wizard
Thanks Wizard.. Great video.
“Its pineapple mrs. wizard!”
I loved this video shows honest work. Nice cars and nice to see common issues or what’s happening with one.
Wayho he shouted us out! I saw the volvo sticker above the control arm it was in Swedish. Oh well getting all giggly here :D Wizard is touching Swedish cars hahah
I wasn't sure that I wanted to see a video about a Volvo, but then I saw this beautiful cat!
Swedish subber here 👊🏻🇸🇪 love the xc90. Such a presence on the road when you see it.
Yes !! nice to see a car from my country!
Adorable kitty
Glad you like it ;-) Greetings from Sweden :-p
Wow, as per this episode, this XC-90 averaged nearly 21,000 miles/year of use in its last 4 years. Recently I spoke with a contractor, owner of a 2019 Volvo XC-40 with 38,000 miles put on it and absolutely no technical nor mecanical problems/issues.
He had it for ONE YEAR. Problems manifest past the 5 year mark.
We just had an 2020 (or was it a 21?) XC40 come in for a service at my job and it had 90,000 miles on it... I couldn't believe it.
@@MDKN22 What?....Wow!!!😲. Talking about durability! That's incredible.
It's cool seeing someone inspect the car you have
That rear cradle has been changed
Looks like it was wrecked to me.
Sure has brand new. That's why the wheel bearing has gone.
@Stimpy&Ren I reckon it was some debris in the road or something that caused damage to the underside
Thanx for the shout out. 🇸🇪🇸🇪 Swedish gear head here.
Hello from Sweden. Great to see a Swedish car on the channel!
Made in China 😅
@@bostonbruinsfanboy Made at Torslanda fabriken, Gothenburg , Sweden.
If it'd been an S60 it would've been built in Ridgeville USA.
@@bostonbruinsfanboy compared to Apple products made in China, Volvo has these car factories operational at the moment:
Torslanda,
Sweden, Manufacturing
Ghent,
Belgium, Manufacturing
Shah Alam,
Malaysia, Manufacturing (since 1967)
Chengdu,
China, Manufacturing (since 2013)
Daqing,
China, Manufacturing (since 2014)
Luqiao,
China, Manufacturing (since 2019)
South Carolina Factory USA, Manufacturing (since 2018)
XC90 is made either at Torslanda, Sweden or Shah Alam,
Malaysia for asian customers, For NA market its Torslanda, Sweden as the flag in the seat showed.
Boston Bruins FanBoy nope not the xc😉 but yeah it sucks we’re not building all of them here no more.. still it’s highly supervised by Swedish tech’s over there.
@@bostonbruinsfanboy Nope, The XC90 is not produced in China. Either Sweden or Malaysia. For US marked I'm quite sure it is Sweden. The S60's for the EU and US market is now a days produced in the US, in South Carolina. That model also has a production line in China, but mainly for the Chinese market. But I think that is a longer variant since that is very popular in that market. Don't think Volvo sell any Chinese made cars in the US under its own name. Polestar is a different story, but is considered its own brand these days.
Nice video MR&MRS wizard for the great content
Euroasian Bob sure did own a nice xc90
Honey is cute
Love, love, love that XC90!!!
Whoa that Volvo looks sweet
My wife drives a 16 t6 inscription and it’s been flawless
Every day is good day if the Wizard posts a new video.
Great video, thanks🙂👍🇸🇪
great lighting under the car. thank you
Always incisive comments/ questions from Mrs W.
Always wanted one of these!!
I want to add to this, i know that Volvo has no service interval for the Haldex system, and the newer gen is really sensetive to dirt and grime getting into the system, could be a good service to do while having it there if not done
Excellent cat intro :) And excellent Volvo...
I was listening for a train one day bloody thing ran over my head, i thought it was running late,it was on time.
That's probably the cleanest car I've seen underneath.
Swedish viewer that appreciates the shout out! Great channel :)
Wish there was a Euro Bob's in my neck of the woods- someone I could trust to sell a correctly working car.
You didn't mention the oil burning issue the 16 xc90 has. Know a few people with them and the local Volvo dealers solution is when the low oil light comes on to stop in and they top off for free if you get the last oil change from them. Its a low oil sensor not a low oil pressure too for those who think that.
Perfect video after finishing work on my '88 740.
I can't wait to get my '86 760 Turbo out of long term storage and back on the road again. I miss that turbo lag and push button 5th gear so much!
@@TIMMEH19991 Mine has been sitting for most of the summer, been busy with work and work related injuries. Had to do some suspension work and put on the lower chassis brace from ipd. Definitely miss how comfy and fun this car is to drive. Especially when I hear the turbo spooling up. Mine is auto for now, may change in the future.
Mrs wizard is definitely wearing the trousers here innit .....
There is an override you can press to change the gears when the engine is turned off. You take a side of the passenger side plastic cover off the transmission console and there is a little plastic strap that you pull down for gear lock release.
We had a stray cat show up to our house for weeks that we named Honeybun. ‘‘Twas an appropriate name when we found out she was pregnant! We fostered her and her kittens and then they were adopted out (Well except for the one our daughter made us keep). You Honey looks like a sweetie and the Wizard looks like the type of guy to let her nuzzle up on a cold night!
All of the Swedes live about 35 miles north of Wizard in Lindsborg. A bunch of Swedish flags there.
Wow wizard you have a Persian Cat!! I love Persian cats! I have 4 ginger Persian cats!!!! She is beautiful! I had a beautiful 17 XC90 but unfortunately it was in a flood and totaled. My lease on my Mercedes E300 is up and I’m thinking of getting another new XC90 again, they lease very well ! Great video!!
"Synthetic coolant flavor, Mrs Wizard! Mmm."
Sharp looking Volvo.
Hello from Sweden! :D Yeah, these are stunning cars! Never been in these new cars, had a go in an old XC90 and even that one blew me away, such a nice comfortable ride..!
It’s like modern Swedish furniture inside 😁
If you ever get the chance to drive a new XC90, make sure you drive one with the air suspension. It literally feels like a BOAT. It is so smooth and so comfortable... it's so damn comfy!!!
what's happened to the old mercedes that needed partial re wiring amoung other jobs?
He promised "a load of videos" on it and didn't do any, just one summary video explaining what he replaced and why it cost twice as much as it should have lol.
Liked the Dr Evil opening
Yes you can put it in neutral after the engine is off, you just have to hold the start switch to the right for a few seconds without applying the brake pedal to turn on the electronics and enable the gear shifter. A tire shop learned me this the first time i came there with my V90. In ref to the video, the XC90 doesn't have all the options. Does not have Bowers & Wilkins or massage/ventilated seats.
can't get massage/ventilated seats in the Momentum
Car wizard euro-asian Bob only has nine cars for sale. At least on his website That you recommended. And then everything else is listed as sold. Some do not even have pictures just says coming soon. Love the channel long-time subscriber thumbs up to everything you do thank you! Love you guys hope you guys had a great holiday. waiting for the next video.
Nice cat!!! I love hearing the trains horn too!
