1989 Volvo 740 Turbo intercooler review from North America
"It was an interesting ride."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The alternator went 3 times when I owned it.
The car used to have to accelerator stop working properly. Would not be able to floor it in emergency.
General comments?
The car gave me quite a few problems.
The brakes were amazingly sensitive.
Clutch was a little sticky from time to time.
