My son and I were looking for a late 940 (for him) and he found one on the Internet at a local dealer at a good price. I am a little jealous since it is a 95 944T (100k) and my ride is na. With no history, I am replacing the (GIANT) breather box (NO easy task), t-belt, acc belts, upper, lower rad hose, water pump (Volvo pump is a low cost item), T-stat, fuel filter, and on to plugs, cap, wires and a few other things. I will check and adjust the valve clearances, replace the hushers and keep an eye on the rad. There is a hole in the resonator and the whole exhaust system may need replacing. Switch over to synthetic oil and AT fluid. Flush the PS fluid with syn AT fluid. Pads are good but I will clean and lube the guide pins, clean the ABS sensors which will be full of metal fuzz, and flush the lines with a synthetic DOT4. I am helping my son or he is helping me. I hold the first lien so he has to let me drive it occasionally (please son?). That about $300+ worth of stuff less the exhaust system and should prevent a lot of the common problems for the next 100K.
