C70 inspected. Couple of issues C70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Raphael on  Thu Feb 1 15:30 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Yesterday I looked at the '98 C70. Overall, the car is in good shape. It's loaded with all possible options and very clean inside and out. I was able to detect couple of issues. First, there is a noise coming from rear wheels when transmission shifted in R and the car starts moving backward. It is heard only for a moment. Does not look like it is something related to pads/rotors. (Only when going backward.) Anybody had this on C70? Second, the Dolby audio system. It is an older model (900), and it occasionally gives a loud echo. Is it a design problem? Somebody mentioned here that dealers can replace the 900 models with a newer 901 models. How common is that?

(The current owner is aware of the problems but did not address them until this point. He rarely drives the car and is committed to sell it ASAP.)
