Ok,
My daughters 98 S70 Trans went out, I found a good price on a 00 S70 AW50-42 with 87,000 miles on it. I swapped them out, and the new one is a 5 speed (I thought all AW50-4s's were 4 sppeds?) and will not shift out of first. I assumed this was because the TCU did not match (4 speed) and got the ...

Haven't seen this on a Volvo yet, but I just replaced a head on m y son's 97 Saturn SL1, for the same reason. It was cracked and oil was in the water, but not the reverse. It takes quite a bit to flush all the oil out.

Sounds like you have the same problem. Good luck.
