I am a newbie here and became a proud owner fo 2001 v70 this week. I just my registration done and yet to get the Inspection done.I bought it for 3500$ from a mechanic and the deal was to get the car inspected so had to go back to him this weekend to get the inspection done.It has 138K on it. I have started driving it for my work from 2 days and I am starting to love it... Who knows this could be a car for a replacement for a new Volvo....
Update...
After driving the car from the seller for 3 days the check engine light came on I took it back to the seller who is a mechanic and he said it is a flase notification and reset it and took the car for a drive for more than 1 hr to see if the check engine light comes back up...i did not come and we got the state inspection done..... happy on weekend. Came back and started using the car as if nothing happened....the check engine light came back again last night and I called the mechanic he says...lets go to volvo dealershi and get it diagnosed..he claims that this car has a history of oil sludge and engine flush could solve the Issue..... Any suggestions?
