Broken Engine mount |
| 144000 mi US $535 |
Needs 2nd throttle body but car is 1 month beyond its 10th birthday so the cost would fall on me. Class action law suit where the OEM Throttle Body's have been found to be faulty - Volvo will replace at no cost, as many as needed till she's 10. One or both turbos is/are leaking oil so I'll fix it myself or let a local shop do it for $25...they changed all 4 O2 sensors for $75 so the 4 turbo oil drain tube gaskets should be about $25...I supply parts of course and they're all of $16 total. |

Turbo oil drain tube gaskets replaced on one of 2 turbos. The 2nd turbo oil drain tube not leaking thankfully as it's much harder to change. |
