I finally discovered the Big Issue with the new to me 98 V70... an apparent PNP issue. After warming up, the transmission MIL goes on, the transmission mode lights flash and a few seconds later the car will slip into neutral. Oddly, killing the car and restarting it cures the problem for a very short while (like minutes) but then it starts up again. Sound like a classic PNP issue or something more serious?
