b4 my warranty runs out, I want to get everything addressed at Volvo's expense.

Is there any common problems I should get addressed asap? the car currently has 57k miles on it and has had all of it's work (oil changes and tune up) done at the dealership whiel the first owner had it.

I knwo so far that the car is missin the lower splash pan, so considering that the PO had all of it's work done there, I think they should replace that at their cost (unless you guys can advise me differently).

Anothe rproblem I've heard of was the sway bar links crapping out on these cars. on an 04 should I worry about this?

thanks in advance

 

Have a full inspection done. Have control arm bushings checked. Have all sway bar links checked. Have all engine mounts checked.

 

thanks tech

would you sugest I get this done at the dealer who I have the warranty thru, or at an indy shop? (there's only 1 Volvo dealer in my city)

I had a pre-purchase insp. done at an indy shop, and they said it checked out good (but they weren't used to many Volvo's but had worked on serveral other Euro cars such as Saabs, BMW, Triumph, etc.) According to them it was a "pretty clean" car that's in "good shape"

thanks in advance!

 

I would take to to the Dealer.

 

and dont forget those pesky noisy struts!!

 

Had a lot of issues withmy D5blowing bulbs. Upgraded all bulbs which seems to have solved the problem- fingers crossed
