Another newbie question S60

posted by  someone claiming to be MittenHed on  Thu Jul 22 17:03 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I have an 01 V70, not too different from the sedan. Very plain, no sun/moon, no leather and no automatic. Those who know say that 01s are not the best, but most of the problems reported have to do with the automatic climate control, traction control and other gee-whiz features. My feeling is that plainer is better. So far no trouble with the headlight washer/wipers that had to come with the heated seats...Check it out, at the very least I claim that the traction control EATS brakes. I just checked the origional pads at 75k miles, and they don't need to be replaced yet. Navigation? Sure, just like watching television. Homelink? You have the right idea. I have the 15 inch wheels with summer tires, and, for some reason, 16 inch steel wheels with winter tires. Unless you are a race driver you ought to be happy with the 15s. My opinion.
