Apparently, I just bought a 2008 XC90 V8 Executive. It has the brushed steel mirror caps and C-pillar molding with the badge but does not have many options. The main thing I wanted was heated seats for wife and the V8. Also, the balance shaft issue on the 2005 and early 2006 engines is a major problem. It will make an awful rattle in the early stages of failure and if that is not repaired, complete engine failure is likely as the timing chain could break or jump time. Once the repair is made, the V8 will be dead reliable.

My 07 V8 has a ton of issues I’m working through. I’ve wanted to sell it many times but I’m coming around to the fact that there aren’t too many of these around anymore and it’s worth fixing. Right now it’s just fwd because I removed the rear driveshaft because it was worn out. That mixed with zero traction control and a v8 makes for interesting driving conditions lol. Valve body seems like it needs replaced now for about 30k miles and it keeps going though 🤷‍♂️

quick question. One time i was detailing our 2007 volvo xc90 v8 sport package and i popped the hood and the engine cover was black you coudnt see the logo so i cleaned the engine with a little of water and scrubbing and it is shiny. Should i be concerned about the balance shaft after that. I didint know about it until now
