1. I believe we would all help each other more if we would include the name and location of the Dealer we are working with. Certainly if any of us use the same Dealer it would be helpful. For reference, I am still without problems at 90K and my Dealer is Volvo of Calabasas in Calabasas CA. 2. To clarify some mis-information, all of the 2003 and 2004 T6 AWD XC90's (and some of the 2005's) had transmissions made by GM. This was not a secret and was disclosed in the technical sales literature. 3. Investigation into how Volvo is handling this issue indicates that all replacement transmissions are apparently a new design from Japan that has a good reliability record Again, if we are going to hold Volvo's feet to the fire and help each other, we need to be a little more complete in our postings. - OldJim

Replying to: oldjim3 (Sep 10, 2008 11:53 pm) Can you tell me about your investigation or give specific info on what the transmission is - as least where you learned that it is a Japanese design? I'd like to get more info as I apparently have one of these in my XC90 and I have some doubts about its long-term viability. Thanks

Replying to: steve_ (Sep 11, 2008 6:53 pm) I'm just looking for a way to determine the diffference betweeen hearsay & reliable info from Volvo of America. As a representative of a public company, I would think any "Volvo of America rep" would be happy to talk to any number of Volvo customers. At the very least, I would think, he or she would provide another public contact (if asked). I think this BB could be very helpful to many Volvo owners trying to persuade Volvo to take care of their tranny issues. The comments would be much more helpful (& credible) if they included specific dates, names, numbers, and/or email addresses. Don't you agree?
