850 vs 240 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Tom R. on  Thu Sep 30 08:04 CST 2004 [RELATED]

The A/C evaporator has been a known failure in the '93-'96 models and is very expensive to replace ~$1200. My A/C has been good so far. Also, the ABS computer tends to fail after about 85K. All Volvos suffer from wrapped rotors if not handled properly, but you already knew that. Otherwise my '96 850GLT has been as good or better than the '87 240DL that I bought for my son several
years ago.
