Certified Pre-owned Warranty V70-XC70 2006

I am considering a used V70 T5 2006 with a CPO Warranty from a private seller. The seller does not have any paper work for the CPO Warranty. I got the VIN and checked with Volvo. It does have the warranty and expires on end of September. The seller has taken the car for oil change and service not to the dealer. My question is that is there some rule or something that owner has to do and does the regular check up and service at the dealer. I went to Volvo website and could not find anything. Does any one knows about CPO warranties? Any comment appreciated. Thanks.

    Without documentation of oil/filters purchased, your CPO is useless for engine problems. You are not required to have a dealer perform any maintenance, but paper work to prove that maint has been performed is required.

    There are only 5 months left on the policy. I doubt that the car will fall apart during that time, so tell the seller that it is worthless and discount it from the selling price.

    If the tranny falls apart before 10/11, you are in great shape with the CPO if you can convince the dealer that the car was taken care of. If the valves fall apart, or you don't change the Tbelt at 105K, that will be your fault.
