LonelySYP Neutral Newbie April 20, 2013 Share April 20, 2013 i'm not sure what "normal depreciation" is anymore. our housing and automotive markets are so .. abnormal. i'm guessing you should just do the maths and check for consistency across the board. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aznmonster 1st Gear November 15, 2014 Share November 15, 2014 Sorry for digging this thread up. I just happened to knock a side mirror of a 2008 volvo s60. Decided to do private settlement. Does any bro know the cost to replace the side mirror and patch a long scratch on the body at Wearnes Auto (Volvo Authorised Dealer)? The owner insists to go back to AD workshop. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volvobrick Supersonic November 15, 2014 Share November 15, 2014 Sorry for digging this thread up. I just happened to knock a side mirror of a 2008 volvo s60. Decided to do private settlement. Does any bro know the cost to replace the side mirror and patch a long scratch on the body at Wearnes Auto (Volvo Authorised Dealer)? The owner insists to go back to AD workshop. Thanks Going back to Tor Kor sure kena . Sure will be more than the extra insurance premium that you have to pay if the other side claim against your insurer. And Wearnes also subs it out to outside workshop anyway, my personal experience confirms their painting was shitty with rust spots (on supposedly NEW doors) appearing within a year. Nothing like that from my regular workshop. Outside workshop charges about $150 per panel for respray (maybe even cheaper), and just buy a new mirror from website like: http://www.volvopartswebstore.com/showAssembly.aspx?ukey_assembly=235191&ukey_make=865&ukey_model=12009&modelYear=2008&ukey_category=7878&ukey_driveLine=453&ukey_trimLevel=24659 or UK website that can have the goods arriving within 3 days. Wearnes will be at least double if not triple in price for the same part. If urgent try checking with Unico in Sin Ming for the price of the parts. Try to negotiate with the other party and perhaps compensate some cash to sweeten the deal. No point paying more for shitty repairs just because it is called "authorised". PS - You probably can buy an entire scrap S60 for 500 dollars and give one extra mirror (and other parts) to the other driver and still cheaper than buying one mirror from Tor Kor!

Does any bro know the cost to replace the side mirror and patch a long scratch on the body at Wearnes Auto (Volvo Authorised Dealer)? The owner insists to go back to AD workshop. Thanks It's not damage to the engine or gearbox. It's just the exterior. Parts like mirror and holder can get from distributor. Just let the outside paint workshop to settle everything. Why go thru a third person? Somemore AD. The car no longer new lah. Dun waste money lah. Tell the other party no point. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does any bro know the cost to replace the side mirror and patch a long scratch on the body at Wearnes Auto (Volvo Authorised Dealer)? The owner insists to go back to AD workshop. Thanks I don't think Wearnes would knock panels but wld simply replace it with new door. Expect high $k given the amount of steel that goes into a Volvo door. Did your insurance advise you if it's a clear cut case 100% liability to you ? If not you can tell the other party that it may be 50-50 or each bear cost. Now, he still want to take the big risk to his insurance premium and go back to Wearnes? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toledo 1st Gear November 17, 2014 Share November 17, 2014 Volvobrick is right. considering that your volvo is 2008 (which is abt 6 yrs old) you can get the parts online at a much cheaper price. spray paint job outside is <$200. my S60 is 2006, and i usu get the parts from either Unico (about same price as Wearnes) or online. I only go back to Wearnes for electronic or non-mechanical issues. just an eg : wearnes price for MAF sensor is 700++ excl labour. e-bay third party + shipping is $70+. and i changed my MAF sensor from wearnes twice! then found out ebay is so much cheaper. haiz. i suspect when they read that there is error code on sensor, they just change.... haiz.haiz. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does any bro know the cost to replace the side mirror and patch a long scratch on the body at Wearnes Auto (Volvo Authorised Dealer)? The owner insists to go back to AD workshop. Thanks Yoz Bro..., the cost of side mirror selling at Wearnes is about 800++ to 1K.... (one side only). (depend if the side mirror have the auto dim function) If a normal small dent, Wearnes have a service to "undent" it, but also depend dent size and shape. Normal cost for undent is about 25 or 30...

d4dani3l Neutral Newbie May 21, 2015 Share May 21, 2015 Hi Everyone, For 2008 - 2011 Volvo S60.i have the following which i ordered wrongly and looking to sell. 1. Front replacement rotor. 300mm Brembo Brake Rotors. New & Unused. Bought at $380. Willing to let go at $290.2. Front replacement brake pads. Akebono EUR1306. New & Unused. Bought at $90. Willing to let go at $60. Would prefer to sell as a set at $300. Image can view at https://www.dropbox.com/s/30us51v9rr...ebono.JPG?dl=0These would be perfect if you are going into your 60k or 120k servicing. Stock brake pads are on average $130 & rotors at least $450. so thats quite a lot of savings, not mentioning the better performance. This setup is for the Volvo S60 T5, but would fit all 2008 - 2011 S60 variants as long as your rims can clear 300mm of rotors, normally thats 18" rims and above to be safe. Pls contact me at 8333 33-four-five if you are interested or if you need to check if it fits your ride. Thank you. CheersDaniel 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddyc 3rd Gear July 4, 2016 Share July 4, 2016 Would suggest you to go to Volvo specialised shop like Kian Teong at Sin Ming or Gary Engineering at ubi for a separate diagnostic check and quo. I normally goes to them for my 2007 S60. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
