Well, I wanted to get this project done this weekend and the Bilsteins and Konis are mail order items. Sooooo, I went to the Volvo dealership and bought the struts there. Since I have a good relationship with the parts department, they gave a me decent deal and lots of technical help. Beechmont Volvo in Cincinnati is a fantastic dealership. It feels like a new car now.

Rick, do you have a "lull" from a standing start in your '01? I never knew any better until I drove a friend's '02 V70 - way more responsive from 0mph than mine. The car has the new tranny control download, it was a little help, but not enough.

Thanks to everyone,
John
