Well, it sounds like you were the victim of a confluence of bad luck.
The radiator in my 940 blew back in March and I ordered a replacement from eEuroparts.com. It was a nissens and it fit perfectly. I had a junked 740 at the time and noticed that the 740 had a noticably smaller radiator (making it incompatable). It might be that you were sent the wrong radiator? My replacement went in pretty fast and I was back to running w/o too much trouble. It really sound like you got a faulty radiator.

I've had many similar experiences. Amazingly frustrating and for me, they usually end with me breaking something inanimate.

Hopefully things will start to improve for you.

You mean to tell me that Volvo makes cars that are *NOT* Wagons?!?
