Looking to purchas 02 S40
Hi, I'm looking to purchase an 02 S40 with 47,000 miles. I've heard good and bad things about volvos but I don't have much knowledge about them. I was just curious if i could get some input on what are the most prevelen issues with these cars. Thanks in advance. I appreciate all the help. They are also asking $15,900 for it. Is that about right, or to high? Thank you!

RE: Looking to purchas 02 S40
I think the 02 and the 01 are the same, Phase II model. I have had the following issues.
Upper sway bar bushings Motor mounts Drive shafts Eats spark plugs for breakfast Distributor coils Brakes are very soft. You might want to check these items out. The Bushings are covered under warrenty if you still have one. Other than that I love the car. I wish I could get the axels fixed. |

Price seems high. I just bought an '01 with 49,000 miles for $7,500. Keep looking - you'll find a deal.

I have an 01 and have had nothing but problems. I would not recommend this car to anyone unless you have an extra $300 to $500 a month to have the car fixed.
