Default new from minny

Hello, been lurking, while shopping for a safe fwd car for the kiddo.
Found a 2001 s40 with 140k on it, timing belt at 117k.
It seems to be pretty solid, well maintained and clean for a minny car.
Taking it to a volvo indy for an oil change and inspection. I had them do a tranny flush on my bimmer "lifetime" tranny fluid, thinking I may have them do the swede while it's there.

Have you purchased it yet? If not, I would NOT allow them to mess with the tranny.

At that mileage, coil packs may be getting close to needing replaced.

Drain and fill only. Not a power flush, too risky.
