Hello Every body,
I'am the proud owner of a 1992 740 Turbo. Previously had 740 1990 with 256K. Can you believe it did not even burn oil. I sold it for a Mitsubishi montero. Jump in to other brands like KIA. Sooooooooo I'm back to basics aftera rough ride.
Volvo and I'm gonna keep this forever, my kids will drive it to college.
Previous owner had a check with machanic before she sold it to me. This one is a wagon, my friends laugh at me but I do not mind, because I know volvois the best in the world.
Few prblems,
(1)Front Break pads have 10% life left and rear pads 60%
(2)Needs wiper blades.
(3) Intake has some vacume lines broken
(4) Interior vents are clogged. (& it says AC inop but I see the AC cluch kiks in and it's cold, but it's cold in california too, may be I might have to wait for summer time check the real effects)
(5)Has bad left front speed sensor, ABS light on.
(6) Turbo leaking oil
I have paid her $1750 because she had all maintenance reords. Last timing belt replacement is at 107K now she got 157K. Tires will last for maybe 10K. Has some dents but thae major problem is on the back window where it attach to the frame has some rust poping up. I do not want that to spread.
So far thats all . Tell me was if I paid wisely, I beleive that I should have consulted the brickboad first before the purchase. You know how young people do things, let me jump first and I'll see from there on!
I'm planing to replace the breaks.
Thank you for all your help.
