I have Zimmerman cross drilled discs all around and PBR Ultimate Ceramic pads all around the difference is big from stock. I have had them for 1.5 years now with 12k miles on them and they are like brand new. I have driven 2002 M3 and brand new Legacy spec B and I can tell you that my brakes are on ...

I am aware about this ETM problem but so far thanks God I haven't had any trouble. Regarding going to the dealer for good or for bad I live on an island and the nearest dealer is 40 miles in the mailand. It is I big hassle to go off island and I have not taken the car yet to the dealer and I hope I ...

I read it further up that Volvo fluid is Mobil. I assume it is the same stuff I put last week. As I said I am thinking of flushing the transmission again maybe even on the next engine oil change which is in 3000miles. The local Napa store can order the Mobil3309 and I want to make sure it is exactly...

I finally flushed the transmission today. I did it as before 2liters at a time. I had a helper this time and I was done in 30min. Some bubbles did show on the first pump out but I waited as advised by MadeinJapan (Thanks once again for the advices pal) and next pump outs went normal. Here are some i...

Thanks for the advice and remarks MadeInJapan. Without sucking up it will make the things even easier for me becase I have done it recently and I know what I am doing. I'll have 16liters to work with. I've done some math and teoreticaly if I flush the tranny with 2liters at a time I should end up wi...

Here is the latest I got from my dealer after not so long day on the phone. This time I talked with a different technician. I asked him if he could find out what was the original transmission fluid in 99 S70AWD and after a short research he said there is no way to find out or to know, I do not know ...

Thanks for the tips and your concern. What is for sure is that my S70AWD is 1999 model year. According to carfax history of the car it was made in 09/1998, shipped to USA in 06/1999 and the first owner was registered in 09/1999. I am the third owner. I did some research and found out that the only t...

Yes the dealer asked me for the full VIN # and they checked against it and said it is covered in the service buletin. I can see it myself. The above buletin says S70 serial# 560000 and up, mine is 583577. It is 4speed automatic but this does not matter according to the buletin. I have picked up the ...

Hi everybody, I changed the transimission fluid of my 99 S70AWD with 72500 miles on it with the owners manual required Dexron/Mercon last week. I have passed not more than 50 miles since then and by chance I found this forum last night and made me think a lot. I have been on the phone almost all day...
