1990 Volvo 760 Turbo wagon review from North America
"Guess I will just have to see if it will go 300k miles"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
More warped rotors than carter has pills.
Lousy sliding calipers.
Four radiators.
One alternator.
One exhaust turbo.
Two air conditioning systems (compressor, evaporator, condenser, hose--the works. converted to 134a and works good as new)
One fuel system computer.
Two sets injection and fan relays (noise suppressors)
One mass meter.
General comments?
It has been solid, fairly reliable, safe.
Wish it had a quieter interior at highway speeds.
Would you believe, after all that, that I just can't find a reason to get rid of the car.
You need to be a mechanic or married to one.
