FAQ WARNINGS about buying a 960/S90???? S90-V90

posted by  someone claiming to be tjts1 on  Fri May 13 09:48 CST 2005 [RELATED]

My only advice is to ignore the FAQ. There are a so many mistakes, omissions and just plain inaccurate information there about the 960 that its pretty much useless.

For example failed transmissions in Puerto Rico due to hot hilly climate. In 3 years I've read about only one transmission failure here in a 960 with 270k miles and a coolant leak into the trascooler.

How about the block corrosion article. All those cars are all 1992 model year and have either been already fixed or taken off the road. The truth is the 960 FAQ information hasn't been updated in years.

Jump on that S90 while you can. They are excellent cars with a good track record at a bargain price.
