Common Problems: VOLVO S90
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- ERAD (Electric Rear Axle Drive) Failure on T8 Recharge(Serious)
Like other SPA hybrid models, the rear electric motor can suffer coolant ingress past seals, damaging internal bearings and disabling pure EV propulsion.
- Front Suspension Lower Control Arm Bushing Wear(Moderate)
The heavy executive saloon chassis accelerates wear on front hydro-bushings, leading to knocks over urban speed bumps and front-end tramlining.
- D4/D5 Diesel EGR Cooler Soot Blockage & Leakage(Moderate)
On high-mileage or town-driven D4 and D5 diesel models, the EGR cooler and valve can clog with soot or develop internal coolant leaks, triggering limp mode and coolant loss.
