Replying to: jdh339 (Sep 04, 2008 7:51 am) I pulled over and shut it off… waited a few minutes and tried again and it was like nothing ever happened…. Ran fine. I was thinking maybe bad gas or clogged fuel injectors?? I was checking the web to look up this message to try to determine root cause… If you find out what caused this, I would sure like to know (or maybe its time for a trade in)

Replying to: volvomax (Oct 16, 2009 10:07 am) The last Volvo I has was a 850R which aside from the low profile tires blowing out every 5,000 miles it was a very reliable car. I'm coming from a BMW 528i that has had its share of problems. Stranded me on the road once and some smaller tire/electronic problems. |

Replying to: harry28 (Oct 25, 2009 5:52 am) That said they are running incredible lease deals on the 5 series right now since they are redesigning it for next year. BMW makes the best handling cars in the world. I've own many cars and for a sedan it is an incredible car if you can put up with the quirks. |

Replying to: raythomas (Oct 25, 2009 5:42 am) I just traded in my 2002 S80 for a 2009 C30 T5 and the warrantee covers everything except for gas and tires for 5 years 60,000 miles. The one I bought was a loaner and had 4,000 miles but they took off $6000 off the price. This C30 is a fast, great handling little car that is really fun to drive. My S80 had some problems in the past but covered with the warrantee… This was my 2nd S80 and for the most part, both very reliable…Gotta love a warrantee!!! Also had a 1995 940 Turbo that had 175,000 miles and only replaced the radiator ... Volvo's run forever if you keep the oil changed.... |

What to look for/be careful about? I come from a generation of owning Japanese cars - the only American car I owned, gave me no end of trouble. I am attracted to Volvo for ride comfort, ease of entry and exit, space (family of four) and a dash of driving fun. Too much to ask? Why do people buy a Volvo nowadays when all cars are equally safe? Thanks all. Also, I would not mind somebody trying to knock some sense into me.
