Sweet car, congratulations. What color? Any additional options? iPod connection?

Sorry, can't help with the timer... but it probably wouldn't hurt. I think White850Turbo in the 850 forum would recommend (he has one on his 850), but I can't speak for him.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

:? wow... i guess i'll keep a looking for a timer. yeah, it got almost everything i needed. premium package, climate package, bi-xenon lights audio package but its a automatic, i know. my girl cant drive stick. :roll: except gps and dyamic trim package but i still get the 17' wheels tho, total price is around 32K. btw, does anyone knows how to check the transmission fluid on the automatic? cuz somehow the 2005 s40 dont have a dip stick for transmission fluid and u have to get it check out by a volvo mech, base on the owners manual. whats the deal with that?
