1998 S70 Potential Problem Areas?? S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be 99 S70 on  Sat Oct 1 10:38 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I disagree with those that say the 98's are better than the 99 & 2000's. The 98 is essentially the same as the 850, but with different exterior and interior. Mechanics are very much the same. The 99 & 2000 S70's ride much better, and the AC is better than the 98S70's/850's. The handling, braking, and most other things are about the same as the 850's. I have driven 98's and I think there are a lot more sqeaks, etc., than on the 99's. True, the ETS is a known problem. It WILL fail at about 60,000 to 80,000. But overall, I like my 99 S70 considerably more than the 95 850 I had.
