    I have a 1999 S70 non-turbo with an automatic tranny. It is of the adaptive
    kind which is very cool by the way! I have noticed that there is an audible
    as well as feelable (not a word I know!) click when downshifting from 2nd to
    1st. The real kicker is that it doesn't happen every time I cylce through
    those gears. I have had it in to Volvo of Durham once to get them to have a
    look but they found nothing. I am going in for my 96K KM service next week
    and will bring this up again. I bought the extended warranty as this is my
    first Volvo and I was unsure what to expect. So any defects should be
    covered according to the warranty. My tranny fluid is nice and red and
    smells like it should. Any feedback on what I could expect them to find? If
    I get the "All's clear" from VoD I will ask for it in writing so that any
    issues that come up in the future will be tracable. The car has been
    regularly serviced but I bought it with 65K KMs on it. I do have the service
    records from the previous owner so I know that all other services were done
    almost perfectly on time. Other than the tranny issue, which is intermittent
    at best the car is great! I would have liked the LPT version but it was just
    slightly out of my league when I bought this one.
