Car Forum / Volvo Cars / August 2006New guy on the block
Just thought I'd say howdy. I currently am driving an '89 740T Wagon on a daily basis, and just bought (or will tomorrow) a '95 850 Sedan. The 850 has 191,000 mi. on it, and everything appears to function as designed. For 500 bucks, I don't think I can go too far wrong. A friend is a local Euro parts importer, so that helps too. Any particular things I should be wary of on the 850? I don't know the timing belt history, so that is #1 on the list. Downside on the Sedan is that it's an automatic. The 740 has the M46. Thanks for your time. Jeff Powerflush the transmission, immediately and every 20K miles hereafter.  Signature----- -RL > Just thought I'd say howdy.
