Had a message on my dash saying I needed a transmission service went to the dealer and they said that I needed a transmission down load. So I had that done £80.00 this has turned the light off and stopped the car going into neutral at traffic lights when sat in drive.
All seams well so far, they said that I could do with a gearbox oil change as this has never been done 145k. Talked to pre owner he said that Volvo dealer said not to do this, but then I have been told that it could do with doing by Volvo and by an automatic specialist. Do I have this done or just save myself £100.00 ???
They also said that I need a new intercooler as it is leaking, had a listen myself and they are probably right. Took the car for inspection of the intercooler pipes at my friends garage and they all seemed ok.
Been quoted £375 inc vat fitted by a ex Volvo main dealer in Halifax that seems ok.
Well not bad considering that the part is £192.00 +_vat
Car is Driving fine but fuel economy is a bit poor, this is affected by the intercooler they say.
So Do I have the gear oil done and the intercooler?
Please help I still have a wind noise at rear (what the hell is it driving me MAD)
