    I have 99 V70 with manual transmission with 128k miles on it. When I
    press the clutch and put in the first gear the car jumps a bit like
    something got mechanically engaged. This is still with the clutch fully
    pressed.
    I speculate that this may be a problem with the transmission
    synchronizer. Would changing transmission fluid cure the problem? Any
    experiences with that?

    In an earlier contribution to this discussion,
    No - the problem is in the clutch - which isn't disengaging fully.

    Interesting !
    I have a 96 volvo 850 wagon, of 93K. It is automatic. When I cold-start
    this car every morning, I have some similar feeling, the car jumps a
    bit.
    I know little about volvo and thought that is how it works. Could that
    be the same problem ?
