If auto then the you're looking for the AW55-50 (5 speed auto).

Best to go for same model year if possible. 2.4 non turbo V70s are very common compared to 2.0T.
it's a manual. mechanic has it out for a drive & reckons it's a bearing. Still driving now but obv hasn't moved much in the last couple of weeks as it's not going to get any better & I don't want it to crap itself haha.
it's a blue Ocean Race btw, which I assume makes no difference mechanically.
& he seemed to think going by the miles (240 odd k kilometres) that it had had a clutch so may not need another one which makes the repair a bit more viable financially!
had to get a passat oil burner to keep me mobile but its not as nice a car in any way to the v70.
thanks for the reply.
