05 Volvo S-60 no drive no reverse grinds going into Park

2005 Volvo S-60 with 128.000 miles.
Driver parked at mall and upon returning the car would not move in Reverse nor Drive. When shifting from Reverse or Drive into Park, the noise sounds like the vehicle is moving when put into Park. Park does not hold the vehicle. It can be pushed forward or backwards in Park.
I've never heard one grind going into Park unless the car was moving.
Any suggestions will make me dance for joy.

Park sprag is sheared offf which explains that noise. The no movement indicates a bad low/rev clutch pack which has finally popped and taken others with it. Its new trans time. So news on the price may make your dance skip a step or two, especially with this car.

I kinda suspected the broken-off Park thingee, but was hoping for my friend better news RE total replacement or huge super cost re-build.
Is it likely that all these malfunctions happened simultaneously? Is it more likely that one set of problems has been ongoing and finaly the straw/camel happened?
From your knowledge, does this year/model Volvo have a history of tranny problems? I think it was '92-93 that Buick put a tranny intended for the V-6 into LeSabres and Park Aves with the 350 V-8 and they disintegrated at about 38,000 to 45,000 miles. Buick didn't do a recall but I think they paid towing and extended warranties for 50,000 "IF" the damaged party got insistent and talked with the BBB.
Thanks for the reply and let me know what else you know of this car/tranny.

I don't deal much with the Euro stuff myself, as there isn't as much of a market for it in my area and they use a lot of specialty tools that are costly. Don't know if this is a common thing. The parking sprag I am referring to is inside the trans. I don't know how this guy drives it, if he beats it or anything so hard to say why the failure occured. Most cars I see where the park sprag shears is because someone put it into park while it was still moving. But what is certainly blown in it I can't say from where I sit. Thats a question for the trans guy who rebuilds it.
I would imagine your straw/ camel assumption is likely. Things don't usually fail completely like this without warning unless its a 90's model Caravan where they blew a fist-sized hole through the case because of a poorly designed diff.
I think you might've gotten bad info on the GM issue. LeSabre and Park Ave were front wheel drive since the late 80's and never could have a 350 in them, just a 3.8. The Buick Roadmaster was the rear wheel drive model that had a 350, same as the Caprice and even the Caddy Fleetwood.

We have not checked to see if there is a broken CV. This break-down happened in a mall parking lot, and the security guy got involved. Until today, the car has not been up on a jack YET. I'm going to see if we can't check the CV tonight.
Thanks for that suggestion and reminder.

OK. Gimme a break. What am I supposed to be a great brain surgeon, mechanic AND mathematician? So I was a decade or so off. It was in 84 that Buick had the transmission issue, and I'm not even certain about that. It might have been 82.
Buick did make it right but only if the owner(s) made enough noise about the problem. They paid towing and replaced the trans with, I think, the 400-R4 trnsmission.
I keep shooting and eventually I hit the target. Once in awhile it's the bullseye.

You mean the 200-4R transmission?

YES! I think it was the 200 R4 transmission.
As for the Volvo which started all this thread - the CV is OK. The owner had it towed back to his house and is going to sell the car as is. He said he hopes to run across someone who KNOWS and LOVES this model Volvo and who knows he can get it fixed inexpensively.
The "knows and loves" let me out.
Thanks for everything.

still sounds like a c/v issue ,check the 2 piece shaft striped splines could cause this problem.
