Thanks a lot for posting this. Our transmission just went dead at 67.000 miles, and Volvo is asking $11.200 for it here in Dubai. Would you mind telling us if your car was under warranty, since Volvo treated you so well?

So it has been about five months since you posted. Did they also change parts for the surrounding issues, like the axle or the cooling system? Have you experienced anymore issues with the transmission afterwards?

We just bought a 2003 XC 90 with 120K miles and are starting to experience slipping after a full stop. We are wondering if Volvo currently has a real solution to the problem rather than a quick fix that will recur after 15K miles. We want to know to see if it is even worth the time and effort to get a fix.
