Transmission issues, first noted in reports from Volvo dealership from original owner at 107K miles. Hard shifting, revving into the next gear. Needs a new transmission according to the shop I took the vehicle to look at it 2 days after buying the car. I have all the documents from the original owner which I found in the glove box, in which he spent over $15K in repairs for this car over the 8 years he owned it since new.
