No clatter, very quiet.

Oil was a little dirty, not bad, but probably due for a change.

Tons of boost, threw my head back into the seat when I stomped on it! Ran like a raped bear!!

It was cold today, but the AC seemed to work fine. Any other way to check the evaporator?

What can I expect for mileage? Close to 30 on the highway, maybe??? The 240 has been getting 25 lately, but has done 27-28.

Records through 85K at a Volvo dealer. Then some indy receipts. Just had a $1000 brake job at a Volvo dealer. New calipers, rotors, pads and a MC.

Dealer is asking $5500, too much? Edmunds gives exactly that price....
