240 and 740 and 940's take the same radiator 8601127 is the volvo part. I would say i have not had any issues with them.

You need to investigate it a bit more.. is it a loose hose at the bottom or actually a leak. Pressure testing should tell you something but also check the thermostat and the cooling fan ..watch your fingers!
