Am looking to buy a 2004 V-70 R wagon for my sister. Test drove one today with 37K on it and a lot of engine corrosion from having been purchased at some beach town in Florida and then driven here to Oregon. Car hesitated for an instant when I stepped on the gas peddle and then lunged. Very uneven throttle control because of the lag. A Volvo owner told me same thing happened to his 2004 wagon and Volvo replaced the transmission (still under warranty). Can someone tell me what the problem is, and is it the transmission, not the electronic throttle control? Any other issues with this year and model? Dick
