Its not as reliable as the AMG Mercs or MSport Diesels i have had that didn't miss a beat, I soon found out getting a good independant volvo specialist you can trust is a must, and don't scrimp on maintenance and make sure volvo recommended parts are used, it maybe you need to take it to volvo just give it a good service, check the codes, update software etc., if this has not already been done, it was costly for mine but seemed to iron out a number of issues and let me know where my problems were and those that were immediate and those i could monitor. On here i have been saved a few times with some excellent advise!!. I am resolved to the fact that the S60R will cause me some issues!, and i will chip away at them, but nothing quite drives like it in terms of speed, comfort and real exclusivity and you will not find many R's on the road, the R is a performance car and highly strung and takes a little bit more time and effort to keep on the road, i can guarantee your post won't be the last, but hopefully the good people on here can help you out and point you in the right direction!., I just keep my eye on the fact behind the reasons i got mine in the first place, which is exclusivity, comfort and speed, and forgive it of the niggles and nice little messages it seems to leave me every day. I hope you get things sorted out quickly!
