'00 S40 with 66k.........in the ist 15k I had a host of what I call unfortunate but minor problems all fixed under warranty or by myself. In no particular order..Check engine light,headlight burnouts,vaccuum fuse,shift-lock adjustment, seat-clicking,interior climate control light bulb,radio lights...I may have missed something but after approx 15k...all the problems were fixed except one...15k-30k more check-engine light fails finally fixed by more software downloads and a "Volvo Check-engine recall notice" that finally fixed it....knock on wood.......from 30-64k...NOTHING! At 65k both front wheel bearings went.........really weird, but both started buzzing at approx the same time. Thats it! I do have to give the positive side........my front brake pads have lasted an average of 25k, my rears 30k! I have not had to replace any rotors, suspension parts Oh Oh...yes I did, two tie rods! No muffler problems, no A/C, heating,cooling,alignment....? I love the car!!! It is as tight as when new, gets excellant,excellant gas milage....if driven economically!!!! I plan o keeping it at least 2 more years, and then I'll get my last Volvo....an S80 or however ford messes it up! (Sorry!!!....no I'am not sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Somewhere in Essex Jct. Vermont, still trying to break 40 mpg @ 60 mph! Bill
