Hello Guys

Post by JoeyNorte »

So hi everyone, I’m obviously new to the Forum and honestly to Volvo. I know the history and admired the cars but I just got around to getting my first one, A 2006 S60 2.5t All wheel with 171k, from the impound. Obviously it’s gonna need some work which is why I joined the forum and also because I’ve had a very hard time finding parts as for some reason the car is a unicorn in local salvage yards. But so far it’s been good, fun and a surprise for the price I got the car. Anyway if anyone can point me to some used parts I’d appreciate it.

Its more of a drive for you, but there's a U-Pull It in New Ringgold Pa. I'll also say that there will be generally 2004 and earlier. Not saying that they won't have an 06, but more of the 01 to 04 years. A place to keep in mind if your in the area.

I would like it if they were newer parts but that’s been the issue if the reliability is similar than I’ll start looking down. I actually might think about taking the drive as it’s only an hour an a half.
Thanks for the help.
