Hi! I noticedthat when I acclerate easy from 60 to 70, without shifting down, the car seems to buck or hesitate a bit. I am aware of all of the tranny problems with this model....could this be the start of something not good? Any bit of advice/experience would be appreciated! Thanks!

 

sounds to be like a turbo control valve, it sits by your airfilter box. has 3 hoses running to it..

also how many miles are on it? and when was the last time the plugs were replaced? they are due at 60k..

 

Thanks! I'll have it checked out. We have 26M miles on it and it will be past warranty at the end of this month - so - I wanted to be sure I have all the bases covered, especially with everything I have heard about the transmission. Thanks Again!

 

I wouldnt worry about the transmissions, if your a good customer to the dealer, Volvo will give assistance on the trannys.. i've done atleast 5 in the last month that had 70k or more on them and volvo paid for it..

 

Thanksagain for the help and the reassurance on the tranny!
