Hello All, after an unfortunate incident with icy roads and a post I must now retire my 1994 940 (380,000km with alot of life left in it) and get something newer. As a replacement I was considering a FWD 2002 S60 Turbo with the 2.3L engine with 96,000km. I have read the postings on brickboard and most of the buying S60 posts date back to the early 2000s and I was hoping to get fresher info.

I am aware of the Marelli ETM issue and would make sure it has the Bosch components. All the other consumer reviews seemed to be pretty positive only indicating problems with bulbs and the bulb sensor and fuel doors falling off which I think are pretty minor.

Are there any other issues I should be aware of or look out for? What have people's experiences been with this model/year? Would this make a good replacement?

Any info you would have would be really helpful.

Thanks,

Dan
