sounds pretty similar to mine... at 153k now and engine and tranny seem solid still but working through the misc things that are dying.
I will say I’ve been able to do things a tad bit cheaper... i price things out between fcp euro / IPD and then I check Swede speed for cheaper alternatives if people have tried stuff... I replaced the front wheel bearings on mine with aftermarket wheel bearings for around $150 for both and have had good success. You need a press though - so beware, it was pretty time consuming. I did struts and shocks + brakes that day as well. You can do that a bit cheaper as well - FCP Euro for the front struts with Bilsteins ended up reasonably priced and for the back I got KYBs (KYB 741067 AGX Gas Shock based on mynameideasweretaken recommendations and have been pleased. They say they don’t fit, but they definitely do for AWD V50. They won’t be suitable for powered vehicles though I suspect. Ride height is practically stock with them. All in all it was around $350 for all the struts i believe. I did the strut bearings as well.
Next up is the front axles and lower control arms 😒. Those are pricey. I’m taking a gamble and got afternarket ones on advanced auto parts per a mechanic friends recommendation (he replaced a bunch on P1’s and had good results). Ended up being ~$250 for both. If it turns out poorly I’ll update this though... I just couldn’t quite justify the $1000 fcp wanted for them.
I also had my fan blower motor start clicking the other day... at $300 for the part and a days work of labor (it’s deep within the dash) I was less than thrilled with Swedish wagon. Thankfully it stopped clicking but it’s only a matter of time 😞...
