Looking for advice on xc90 t6 purchase
Hi all and thanks in advance for the help. I am looking to purchase a 2005 xc90 t6 with 222 000 kms. I drove it and instantly fell in love only to go home and read tons of horror stories about transmission issues. It felt fine when I drove it but I am no mechanic. I'm getting a great deal (4000) so my question is should I purchase? If so is there's anything I can do to prevent transmission issues? I'm really just looking for any reason to buy this car because it suits my needs perfectly. Thanks!

To your question about prevention, I don't think so. It would make sense to think limiting the T6's power to 200 hp or less would have really helped it, but we'll never know. There is a TSB on the cooling system failure causing transmission failure, and you can easily prevent that, but that does not eliminate all the risks, just one.
