I am still not seeing anything when I click on the All tab. Is there a xc60 tab that I am not seeing also?

The new XC60 tab is returning no results because no one has yet posted anything with XC60 as the model at the top of the thread.

Is there a better way to group some of these models? For example, should I add XC50 too, or should I group it with others? Maybe an XC tab that covers them all? I know that would be too broad.

I'll likely rethink tabs with some of the interface changes I want to do, but it would be nice to know how users would group models.

It's enough to make the brain hurt. With all the common model names over platforms and generations it's impossible to do it cleanly.

Here's a try:
-850, S70, V70, V70XC C70 1993-2000-XC40
-S40/V40 (2000-2004)
-S40/V50/C30/C70 (2005+)
-S80 1st gen (1999-2006)
-S80/V70/V70XC (2008-2016)
-S60 2001-2009, V70/XC70 2001-2007
-XC60, V60, S60, S/V60XC (2010-2018)
-XC60 2nd gen (2019+)
-XC90 1st gen (2004-2014)
-XC90 2nd gen (2016+)
-S90/V90/V90XC

Less separation if you go by platform:
1. "P80" platform: 850, S70 and First gen V70, V70XC, and C70 models

2. Ford "C1" platform: Second gen. S40 and C70, along with the V50 and C30 are all similar

3. The 1st gen. S40 and the V40 belong on their own, they're odd ducks among the rest.

4. "P2" platform: 1st gen XC90, 2nd gen. V70XC/XC70, 2nd gen. V70, 1st gen S60, 1st gen. S80

5. "P3" platform: 2nd gen S80 and S60, 3rd gen V70 and XC70, 1st gen XC60, plus the S60XC, V60 and V60XC

6. The newest models are on the Volvo Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) platform.


I think it's important to force the user to precisely define their car but it's not always helpful to separate the forums down into each model. It's very important to know if the question is about a '98 V70XC or a 2016 XC90, but not necessarily important that those questions are asked in different forum spaces. This is especially true for those folks answering the questions, who may not want to bother with clicking through a dozen different forums. This is where your catch-all "ALL" tab is so nice.

Thank you,

Having the 'correct' model tag along with the year is enough to work out most of the problems. I now only get confused of the model has the newer 4 cyl engine or the older 5 and 6 cyl.

I dislike the use of 'gen' because they vary years among different models.

It is nice to have the 'ALL' function back!

Keeping it running is better than buying new

Fixed and I added an XC60 tab. Let me know if you still see trouble.

Mee too. I haven't been able to see the posts in the "ALL" tab of the AWD forum for a month or two now. Thought it was just me...

It's been years since the individual forums have been updated to reflect all the different FWD/AWD models. It's a moving target. Luckily it's not too much of an issue at the moment because the rate of new posts is so enough that we can all post in the catch-all "AWD" forum.

I will send a message to the admin. I suggest you do the same. (There's a "Contact Us" feature under the pull down menu at the very top of the page.)

Have a great day!

My “All” page has been down for awhile too. Others mentioned it in the V70-X70 forum page some time ago.

Will I buy another Volvo??? We'll see....

Sent Jarrod a message yesterday morning. He quickly acknowledged and then by late afternoon it was fixed!

Quick turnaround! Five stars for Brickboard service! :-D
