I just purchased a 98 S70 Glt. (Love it), However it has a minor leak I guess from a seal. The mechanic said it may be from not having been driven for a while.He put some stuff in the oil and said it may fix the seals. Is this true or will I be looking at a mjor seal repair and what do these cost? Also some times the gears shift a little abrubt. (automatic 75.000 miles) This is my first Volvo. Is this normal? (It's not unbearable but I wish it were a little smoother)

One last thing. There is road noise on the right hand side. Any tire recommends for this model? Or could it be the bearings?

Thanks.
