Hi All-- my name is Lucy and I have a 2008 C30 T5 manual transmission. I bought it new and now, because of a daily LONG commute I have a lot if miles on it (153,000+). I can on here to find fellow Volvo people because those around me keep telling me to get rid of my lovely car when things go wrong.

That motor is a 500,000 mile motor. Keep the maintenance up and you should be fine.

Thanks. I didn't know that. I keep all regular maintenance on schedule and done at the dealership. Your words give me one less thing to worry about!

That is what will help keep it running for a long time.

They look like fun cars to drive, especially in T5-manual transmission form!
