@superchanteur  it is the driver here that causes the problem, but the Volvo is what I would consider as a wintercar.

@StuPadazzo isnt the awd system you talking about only made until -2002? then haldex

take over. before 2002 it was (wisko clutch) on volvo avd. and that system was SHIT!!

[AFCAthebest100]

Yeah i know

[StuPadazzo]

@AFCAthebest100 Yes, that is the correct solution for this car under normal snow conditions. BUT, if you owned an XC you'd know that the AWD still won't kick in until you mash the gas. ...even WITH the "Winter" mode turned on... So still, all he would have done is sit at the bottom of the hill and spin the front tires in "W" mode. It doesn't look like he knows what he's doing but he's doing the right thing with THIS bad AWD system. He also has crappy tires.

[StuPadazzo]

@Niitroshark You obviously don't own a Volvo Cross Country. I do as well as the author of this video, and unfortunately in order to get the rear wheels to activate you DO have to throw near full power to it. Exactly as he said... if you were reading it. Now, I know as well as you do that in order to get traction in snow you DON'T spin the wheels. But with THAT car and those crappy tires, he'd never have come close to making it even as far as he did. So he HAS to spin them to activate 4x4.
