I am selling this car because I purchased a newer one.  This vehicle has very high miles but still runs good, I would trust it to go anywhere.  Here is a list of things that are wrong with the vehicle:

-Has a small oil leak from the turbo return line.  I have the O-ring to fix it.  It doesn't leak very much maybe a quart every thousand miles.
-It needs a new hub on the rear for the ABS to work. There is a few teeth missing for the sensor so the computer throws a code.
-Drivers seat has a lot of wear.
-Sometimes the engine has a miss until it warms up.  It may need a new coil pack or spark plug wires.  I installed new spark plugs in September.
-Needs exhaust work.  The pipe on the middle muffler/resonator came off.  I would just take it to a custom exhaust place and have them do away with the middle muffer with a straight pipe.
-Needs a new inside door handle.  A rod became bent and broke the plastic clip on the door handle.  I fixed the rod inside the door but it still needs the door handle.  I have a pair of locking pliers hooked to the rod right now.
-It needs a new bumper cover, the one that is on it is cracked.  It also needs a fog light unit.  I have one but it is not on the car.  The other one was gone when I got the car. 
-It only has one key and no remotes.  This is all I got when I bought the car.  Car has keyless entry if you buy new remotes.
-Transmission shifts smooth but sometimes has a little vibration from 3rd to 4th.  It probably needs a new transmission mount. 
-Gas gauge works but it tells you that you are empty when you still have two gallons left.  This can be fixed with an adjustment to the float in the tank.  This car has an access to the fuel pump and sending unit underneath the rear seat.  You don't have to drop the tank to fix the gauge.  You can find a guide on the internet on how to get the gauge to be more accurate.  I can find the guide if you need me to.
-Sometimes the thermostat sticks open and the heater isn't has hot as it could be.  The plus side, the engine runs nice and cool.  It doesn't cost very much for a new Thermostat.
-No owners manual but it is free on Volvo's website.
-I had an aftermarket stereo in the vehicle, the factory one needs a code to get it to work.  You have to call a dealer, give them the VIN and they will give you the code to make the stereo work.  The radio worked fine before I took it out but it has a security device, when it looses power you need the code.
-Has a very small dent on the front passenger fender near the hood.
-Small crack in windshield on the far right of passenger side.  Not in drivers view and doesn't hinder state inspections.
-"Check engine" light is on because of the misfire mentioned above.

The good:


-It has all new motor mounts.
-Has synthetic engine oil.
-Engine sounds good and is very reliable was driving it 100 miles a day with no problems.
-A/C still works.
-Besides the front bumper, the body is in real good shape.  It has a very small rust spot on the front fender, that's all the rust that I can see on the whole car.  Undercarriage is in really good shape.
-Nice looking car for the age except for the front is chipped up.  Paint isn't perfect but still looks decent.
-New flex pipe installed.
-New spark plugs.
-Sunroof works and has no leaks.
-All power windows and heated seats work
-Clarion front door speakers installed.
-Nonsmoker.
-No smoke smell in the interior.
-Seatbelt in cargo area to hold items.
- 25-26 MPG
-Current PA inspection until next summer.
-New washer pump motor.
-Engine has plenty of power and transmission doesn't slip.
-Has tow hitch installed.

Kelly Blue Book in Fair condition is 2138. With a little bit of work, this would make someone a nice car.  I can send you more pictures of the car via email.



I AM SELLING THE VEHICLE AS/IS.  I HAVE LISTED ALL THAT I KNOW THAT IS WRONG WITH IT BUT THEIR MAY BE SOMETHING I HAVE MISSED.  IF THE CAR FAILS ON YOU IN ANY WAY, I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE.  I WILL NOT SHIP THE VEHICLE.  THEIR IS NO INSURANCE ON THE VEHICLE SO I CAN NOT ALLOW TEST DRIVES.
