    Intermittently the ‘ABS and TRACS’ lights come on. The dealer, Jenkins Volvo Jaguar that I purchased the car from and have been taking it, ran a diagnostics on it. There were errors for the sensor but nothing has failed. They said the wheel sensor(s) might be going bad or it might be a wiring harness issue. They said it might also be the control module. I have had the car for so long I hate to give it up and it is in excellent condition. But if I’m going to keep it I’m looking for options other than the dealer. They have not let me down but is there a more economical solution. The cost of maintain the car just about equals payments for a new car – the latest had been a rear seal and replace the breather box. Pinky’s is where I took the care about 10 years ago to have a scratch repaired. Did not know they also did work other than body work. I’ll check it out.

    Yeah, usually I come on to look at the progress of the 850, but then I just read some other posts and try to figure out what everyone's talking about. I'm getting better I guess. I figured, I'm on here enough, I might as well get a profile.
