Re: Had to let it go....
I'm afraid of saying anything here and jinxing my luck, but here goes...I'm really surprised at how unreliable your Volvo's are...I'm not sure what it is but my GLT hasn't given me any trouble at all. I've got 112k on the clock and I'm in the process of replacing a lot of stuff but it will last ...

Re: Had to let it go....
The new V70's get something like 22 highway.
I was surprised at this also. Economy is very high on my Wanted list, and this makes the new V70 unattractive to me even if I had money.
To illustrate this point, the new (not yet available) Hyundai Sonata Turbo sets a new standard: 274hp and 34mpg ...

Re: Had to let it go....
I hear your pain...on the way home last night I drove by the Volvo dealership in Louisville (around midnight) and boy those new V50/70s are surely nice, but the frustration over the company not offering a permanent fix for the ETM problem on my 2001 model casts doubt over how much they are staying ...

Had to let it go....
Ive had the S60 for 2 1/2 years. I really liked the car. But when it hit 100,000 miles, its needed something new every time I looked around. I was throwing $200 at it minimum all the time.
The killer was when I took it to a Volvo shop and they found the ABS control module was leaking. The part ...

Remote inop...well sort of
All buttons are functional except the unlock button. The yellow button now locks the car and does not turn the lights on. The trunk and the lock button work as they are supposed to. The unlock button does nothing
Any suggestions?

Re: Ratling noise in suspension
Yea Paul, sway bar endlinks are probably the most common although I had the same problem after putting all new parts(struts,spring seats,endlinks,tie rod ends,brakes, rotors and new calipers) in my 98 S-70 T-5 (104K) and I'm still getting a rattling from the PS side, someone has suggested that my ...
