Thanks for the info Dave and Abe. My Dealer is replacing the Solenoid , and a motor mount, front bushings, a front sway bar link rod, greased the steering shaft, replaced some clips on the pwr steering hose. I will be looking into a very good extended warranty for this car! I currently own a 2000 S70, but there is no leg room for my two sons who are growing like weeds and no side curtain airbags which are the two biggest reasons for the trade. The trade seems fair enough. My 2000 S70 with Winter package and 25,000 miles, plus forty-five hundred dollars. The '99 S80 T-6 has 37,0000 miles with the upgraded stereo. They also attach a 24,000 mile two year warranty once the original 50,000 warranty expires. The Dealer, which is Doylestown Volvo seems extremely competent and ready to resolve any problems. For those who are wondering, Doylestown is in Eastern Pennsylvania, about an hour drive North of Philly.
