what a bunch of crap! i bought a volvo (xc 70 2002) for their reputation of quality just like most people. now at 76k i need a new tranny...$3500-$4000 Can't rebuild them?? no replacement parts?? WHY NOT? at least we are not alone. anyone else have the same problem w/ a 2002 xc70? the first sign was...i felt a rumble as if i was going over rumble strips. a few days later on the way to the Denver air port to fly to DE to get married a service light came on (transmission service urgent) . next the car became slugish and wouldnt shift in to 5th. all shifting became a struggle. great!!! the last thing i needed was added stress to the whole wedding thing!!! does any one think that after the new tranny is put in that it will just happen all over again in 50k or 70k?? should i try to sell my car or trade it in before it happens again? I dont want some else to go through the same crap, however i cant deal with it happening agian either. any one else having simalar thoughts??

any one considering buing a xc70 should go to-
