SUPREME VOLVO XC90 REPAIR & SERVICE PROVIDER OF PHOENIX

The XC90 is the flagship large SUV from Volvo, which helped establish the company in the SUV segment, offering superior performance, safety, and luxury. This model features two generations, each with distinct characteristics and profiles.

The first generation established the XC90 in the three-row luxury SUV segment, with its safety features, practicality, and robust engine options, including the iconic 5-cylinder turbo and a Yamaha-developed V8. The second generation was a complete redesign, introducing Volvo's SPA platform and advanced four-cylinder engines, which marked a significant leap forward in technology, luxury, and design.

The Key features of the Volvo XC90 are;

  • A B5 All Wheel Drive (AWD) Mild Hybrid engine.
  • A turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine with a 48-volt mild hybrid system.
  • On-demand All-Wheel Drive (AWD) drivetrain.
  • An eight-speed automatic transmission.

Safety systems include advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), semi-autonomous driving features such as Pilot Assist, collision avoidance, City Safety, and the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS). To enjoy a superior driving experience and benefit from cutting-edge technology for an extended period, these vehicles require proper, timely maintenance by expert technicians using advanced tools. Tanner Motors, located on North Cave Creek Road, meets your advanced requirements, as we are the alternative dealer for European auto services in Phoenix. To successfully provide maintenance services to the Volvo XC90, you, as the owner, must have a particular understanding of the common malfunctions.

Issues in First-Generation Volvo XC90 near Phoenix

Transmission Failure in Early T6 Models

Early T6 models equipped with the GM 4T65-E automatic transmission often experience gear malfunctions due to premature internal wear resulting from manufacturing defects. The repair process at our shop in Phoenix comprises a complete transmission rebuild by a specialist or a full replacement with a re-manufactured unit.

Angle Gear / AWD System Failure

A whining or grinding noise during acceleration, or an "AWD Disabled" message, indicates an AWD malfunction in the Volvo XC90. Due to wear and tear, the spline sleeve connecting the transmission to the angle gear becomes stripped, causing this malfunction. Replacement of the sleeve and seals at Tanner Motors in Phoenix resolves this issue.

Issues with the Second Generation Volvo XC90 around Phoenix

Excessive Oil Consumption

The low oil level warning, along with the need for frequent oil changes every 1,000 to 2,000 miles, is a sign of excessive oil consumption. Burning of the piston ring due to combustion causes this malfunction. Our technicians in Phoenix replace pistons and piston rings to resolve this issue.

Sensus Infotainment Glitches

As a result of an infotainment malfunction, the XC90 shows screen freeze, touch unresponsiveness, and connectivity issues. A software glitch, a bug, or an electrical failure is the cause. Repair at our Phoenix shop involves a simple reboot, bug removal, software update, or, in extreme cases, module replacement.

Efficient, professional, and friendly

As a middle-aged, single female who drives an older car, and who has also moved around a lot, I have spent hours and hours researching mechanics … reading reviews, asking neighbors, calling the shop itself to ask questions. Now that I will be here long term, I am so happy that I won’t have to go through that process anymore as I am happy to have found my go-to auto repair shop, which is Tanner Motors. They are professional, knowledgable, approachable, courteous … I can’t even think of anything else I could ask for. The shuttle service they provide is so considerate. AND even though they aren’t a VW shop, they have my ’03 VW running better than ever. Thank you guys so much for taking the extra time to answer questions / explain issues and to ensure my car is running so well. Even though it’s old, you treated it as importantly as if it were a new ride that I needed for work. THANKS AGAIN!!!
