OK - from a newbie. Having read the previous posts, anything else to go wrong (in a big way)? I've tested the S60 2.4T againts a Mondeo 2.5 V6 and the Volvo wins for me (comfy or what??). I was tempted by the Saab 9-3 2.0T until I read about the bulkhead problems. So what do we really need to look out for in n the S 60 range?????

Dont panic too much about the bulkhead issues on the 9-3, affects the soft top mainly. Oops, probably shouldn't of posted this on a volvo forum.....
BTW, I've had a 9-3 2.0t and I'm now looking at the S60's. |

re post # 16 DTC's
Can some one explain what DTC's are?
I did the test and got 3 different answers for the modules,CHECKING, READY and SET, none said FAULT or ??? the most common one was CHECKING, I waited about a minute but the message did not change. eg ABS, I also started the engine but no change Does the "CHECKING" message ever change? Thanks Eric

I have the S60 2.0 SE T 01 and have just had replace all those parts at a cost of £1,260.00 , Ive had the car for 4 years tho and quite simply wont change! And i'm having it resprayed in two weeks ! cannot wait. The stereo system is just fantastic for a standard unit no need to upgrade.. The car is smoooooth and eats the motorway (move over son S60 coming thro) lol.. Just make sure you do the usual checks as you would with any car . and i'm sure you wont be disappointed.... Good luck Fella Njoy your S60 Regards King Jaffi Juffa Ruler of Zamunda Love that film |
