If I were to add the S60 to my shopping list (I must stay under $15k), what model years should I stay away from and how many miles is too high? Generally speaking. I read all the "reliability" threads and still didn't see this answered.

Thanks

 

Not that less than 2004 were bad, but based on your budget I would go 2004+. How many miles depend on the car. I sold a 2004 S60 2.4i with 126K on it. I did ALL the maint and oil changes every 5k with out fail. I spent $500.00 on one repair(absolute manifold pressure sensor) that was not routine maint. Find a car like that and the miles are irrelevant. I would have it inspected by a dealer not associated with the sale of the car.

 

Ok so 2004 or newer. The newer the better for me but that really limits my # of cars to look at based on my budget.
