We own a Volvo S70, it's a 2.5 20 valve.
It's rarely driven, it was just serviced, however the "service lights" stay on until the engine is warmed up.
Apart from that, the car is unique and drives superb!
If you have had the car serviced anywhere other than a Volvo dealers, chances are they will not have been able to turn the service light off. If it was at a Volvo dealers - take it back!
We bought our Volvo S70 2.5 SE on July 13th 1997 (brand-new). Since than the car has been nothing, but reliable. We have 4 cars in our household, incuding 2 BMW's (1998 BMW 318i, 2000 528i), and a Lexus (is300). I believe the volvo to be more dependable than all the cars that we own. I love the way this car sounds when accelerating, its kinda loud, but its good.
The only question that I have is, why does it have a "2.5" badging at the back, I checked the engine and it's the base 2.4litre.
The 2.5 badging is usually because the engine is not exactly 2.4l but somewhat ore like 2450 cc 0r 2499 cc so that makes the car closer to 2.5L rather than 2.4. It may not be correct but please refer to the owners' manual for tech spec. Hope that helps.
850's and early s/v70's were badged as 2.5litre, but the car actually had 2435cc. Don't know why, but the newer models were re-badged as 2.4l.
