Transmission Reliability 850 1993

Great mileage DaveF

And to think that some refer to the 850 transmission as being unreliable/fragile!

I was expecting the highest mileage for a transmission to be someone who had changed there transmission oil every year or 10k miles, not from someone who only did it every 50k miles or so.

This in my view adds weight to Volvo's recommendation for an oil change every 37k miles.. Or can anyone who has changed their oil regularly report if they have the same kind of miles on their original transmission?
