s60 jerks forward after key is turned off and drags during slow turns S60

posted by  someone claiming to be swedish chef on  Sun Nov 20 01:19 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Hello all,

Car is a 2002 s60 awd 2.4t with 99,700 miles.

I am in need of immediate help since warranty ends in 200 miles. Last week we had alot of work done under warranty --

front stabilizer bars

RPM sensor

power steering pump

front angle gear

Car drives the same way as before the work. Dealer didn't even want to replace the differential [angle gear they call it].

The car drags like a 4wd chevy pickup left in 4wd on dry asphalt when you back out of a parking spot. It's like it struggles to move at all. There is a goodly pause when you shift it into D before it engages. The strangest thing is that when you drive the cat and park it then put it into park and take your foot off the brake it is stationary. TURN OFF THE KEY AND IT SURGES FORWARD like pressure is being released. This basically just started.

Volvo dealer thinks I'm a nut/jerk because I refused to pay two deductibles under the VOLVO "VIP" [hahaha] warranty when they had the car for three weeks and tried to put the work on two invoices. I need to know what is the problemto ask for or I'm screwed.

Please reply - it seems like there are alot of really knowledgeable people here.

Thanks,
Brian

    I think that because your problem occurred while under warrantee, it's most likely covered even if it was repaired after. But, read the fine print.

    In any case, if I were you, I'd call Volvo customer service and let them know the problem and the difficulty working with the dealer. That will probably go a long way insuring that you can get this fixed under warrantee.
