Help w/Transmission P position 700

If I'm not mistaken, that awful little device began in the 1991 model year. And it usually doesn't let people get OUT of park, but I've always seen that it lets the shifter IN.

I'd say it's totally shot shift linkage bushings, or a very bad transmission mount. Both are pretty easy, if filthy, things to fix. Filthy due to the usual conditions of things under a transmission.

If the shifter is tight otherwise, it's probably the mount, but if it's real sloppy, it's probably linkage bushings. Either way, go to a VOLVO shop, not an AAMCO shop. There's very likely nothing at all wrong internal to the transmission.
