What is your question?
I need the transmission replaced on my '03 xc90, as it failed at 140k miles. I was told that there is a near zero success rate for replacing it with anything but a brand-new transmission ($8,000), due to it's computer programming requirements. Anyone know anything about this? I have a mechanic who's offered to put a used one in for me, but am nervous about taking the chance. I should add that the whole power steering system will need to be replaced in the near future ($3,900). BOO on Volvo! I'll never buy another. Thanks!

you shouldnt have a problem with putting a used tranny in as long as you get it out of the same model and year of vehicle
used trans is just that USE. never seen anyone had good lock with used auto trans.both these repairs exceed the value of the car, maybe its time to replace
