95 v.s. 96? 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray Niblett on  Tue Jan 15 04:49 CST 2002 [RELATED]

We have a 95 and I recall checking to see what was new in 96.
I think 96 has different ABS system (but I love the feel and
performance of the brakes on our 95 855 GLT, better then my
98 S70 T5). Other changes were all minor. The 96 might have
side air bags as standard (I don't recall). I have seen a couple
more electrical problems reported on 96s. The transmission
problems on 95s reported below may have been PNP switch failures
(I suspect more then one tranny replaced because of this part)
since the trnsmissions don't seem to have changed much year to
year on the 850s (as far as I can tell).
