Hey y'all. I'm doing a pre buy inspection on an 08 V8, and I've been reading about the trans serial number and if it's before 06J, to either walk away or lower the price.

"7F3920733" is what I got back. Not sure what that means.

Thanks so much!!

If you can't find the transmission serial you can also go by production date. I think if the car was built in late 2006 or early 2007 then it probably has the bad valve body.

I would call any Volvo dealer and verify the production date.


You can also go here to see if there are any outstanding recalls based on the VIN.

Good luck with the search. Cars.com is a very good site to find used cars.
