lost overdrive 200 1989

posted by  someone claiming to be 1989 240dl owner on  Mon Jan 24 08:12 CST 2005 [RELATED]

My daughter's 1989 240DL lost its overdrive. The Volvo dealer in San Diego tried replaceing the shift relay and dropped the tranny and replaced the solenoid with no improvement. They said that what it needs is to rebuild the tranny. When we got the car 3 years ago it had the same problem and the sales place sent it to a tranny place to have it fixed, although I don't know just what they did? Is a rebuild the answer?

Does anybody want to recommend a shop in or near San Diego?

They are in the military and when he gets back from Iraq they are being transferred 1400 miles away. If the overdrive isn"t fixed, what kind of prolonged highway speed would be prudent?
