    Just ordered this alarm siren battery to replace my dead one. This was the cheapest and most reliable replacement I could find. No sketchy websites, just straightforward and a quick turnaround. No weird Ebay listings with month-long wait times, no expensive Amazon replacements ($30). Just $15...
  2. XC90 (2003 - 2014)
    I recently acquired a 2010 3.2 with the battery in the back. I guess leaving the doors open for hours (no keys, no lights on) while I detailed the previous owner's gunk out of her yesterday killed the battery. I've only had and minorly worked on the same old Honda for 20 years so idiotically...

    Had my volvo v60 2018 for about 4 years now. Never had much issues with it. Over the last couple of months I've been getting multiple malfunction warnings, headlight malfunction, diplight malfunction, parking assist temporarily unavailable. These all usually come up all at once and not on every...

    Hi, I've owned a 2012 Volvo S60 T5 FWD for two years now and a couple of months ago, I would listen to music in my car and for a little bit after the car was turned off but then would notice that I would get a "Low Battery" warning message on my dashboard before the car shuts off completely...
  5. S60, S60CC & V60, V60CC (2011-2018)
    Hey there guys! Recently I have had to use my S60 T4 from 2016 to jump-start a family member's car. It is really awkward to find a good mounting point for the minus cable going into the chassis. The minus pole from my battery is unreachable, so I have to connect the dead battery's minus to my...

    I have bought a car recently and I am an absolute beginner, so trying to understand what battery is good for replacement. Having regular warnings after the engine is off, that battery is low. The Carfax report says that the battery was replaced in 2019, so seems to need to be replaced with a...

    New first time Volvo owner, nice to meet you all.. Got a message saying I have a "power steering failure" and right after another one saying "power steering reduced" when i started the car this cold morning. Kept driving (couldn't feel a major difference) and later today this message was gone...
  8. S60 (2001-2010)
    When connecting the LIN wire to the generator (2005 2.0t), the generator drains the battery with almost 0,5A at the plus connecor. Should the lin wire be powered with almost 12V without the ignintion turned on ? removing the lin wire make the drain disappear. any ideas ?
  9. S90 & V90, V90CC (SPA: 2017 - )
    Hi, My 2018 S90 momentum t5 fwd is due for 50k maintenance and has completed 47k miles. I bought it as a CPO and don’t think the starter or support battery have ever been replaced. So both should be completing 5+ yrs of use. I also got a Start/Stop service needed message recently and had a...
  10. XC60 (2010 - 2017)
    Went away Labor Day weekend and left my 2013 XC60 in the driveway for about 4 days. Came back and it wouldn't start. I tried jumping it with a friend's car and it wouldn't work. Called for a tow and the driver tried using his portable jumper and it worked. Took it out for a drive to charge up...

  13. XC60 (SPA: 2018- )
    Hello! I've just received my long awaited (1 year...) XC60. I'm using Volvo's original home mobile charger supplied with car. It charged battery 3 times since delivery, and now it stopped. Charger goes white blinking light, the outlet glows yellow - there is "Charging initialization..." status...
  14. V70 & XC70 (2008 - 2016)
    OK...I'm an idiot. Went to jump start my old v90 and popped the hood on the xc70, and then the the battery cover. It exposed the front part of the battery and only one terminal with a red cable coming from it. There are no markings on the battery or the terminal as to it being positive or neg...
  15. S80 (2007-2016)
    Hello, I have a serious battery problem with my S80 since I own it. I bought it used about 2 years ago. I immediately noticed, that the battery was very weak after a day or so every time I parked the car. So I installed a new battery (Exide EA1000). This went well for the first few weeks, but...
  16. XC90 (SPA: 2016 - )
    Looking to get some data points from other T8 owners to see how the battery behaves over time. With the recent cold snaps, I have noticed that my battery is not able to supply enough power to drive electrically in a number of circumstances: In extreme cold even after prolonged parking climate...

    Came home from a trip to find my 2017 XC90 T6 Inscription had a dead battery in the airport parking lot. Got a jumpstart, drove it home. Went to the auto parts store, bought a new battery, came home and installed it. Car completely dead - even screens wouldn't come on. Called my repair shop...

    Hello quick Q that has probably been answered before but could not find it using the search function. Anyways.... Does remowing the spare wheel offset the balance of the car making it understeer even more and if it does has anyone here moved the battery to the trunk of the car to keep the...
