S70 5-cyl

  • 124,300 miles
I purchased this car used December 16 2016 knowing it needed a lot of work. I have since gotten all the repairs done on Jan 4th 2017. I now need to get the car emission tested after driving 200 miles the readiness monitors are still not set and have since repaired the check engine light and still can not get an emissions test.
