Volvobrick Supersonic July 4, 2016 Share July 4, 2016 Invest in a cheap OBD II scanner, to make sure it is the part mentioned giving the problem and not one that is cheaper to rectify. At 2800 for 1 more year, it doesn't sound to be worth the repair..... There is no value in the car body, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mersaylee Supersonic July 5, 2016 Share July 5, 2016 First it's the TB then ECM... It could be something as simple as SP or MAF sensor. What are the codes stored? Pm me your contact and I'll hook you up with someone who can help with just a fraction of 2.8k if it's really the case of ECM failure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenRob Neutral Newbie July 14, 2017 Share July 14, 2017 I always believe regular recommended maintenance is the key for trouble free driving for any car. I have owned 8 cars in my 30years of driving. Trust me on this one...when your car is done by the main agent, you do feel a sense of assurance and a deeper realization on reliability..u can call it physological or a pure fact. My current car is a 2008 xc60 3.0 T6. It has clocked 240K miles and so far had zero issues..(touch wood). So lets continue to believe on maintenance..just like our favorite analogy how brushing teeth everyday, shower, exercise and healthy food gives us assurances. If we skimmon any of those, we know what happens..cheers! Enjoy driving. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eug1388 6th Gear September 17, 2017 Share September 17, 2017 Hi Eyke, Noted that it 15000km per interval servicing Anyone know roughly what kind of budget each servicing will cost at Wearnes? Thks still under warranty or after warranty? Post-warranty, you set aside at least $600-S$800 per servicing. That should be sufficient. Think Wearnes has post-warranty servicing packages at reasonable pricing and you may want to call them to find out. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightbringer 6th Gear September 17, 2017 Share September 17, 2017 Thanks Eug1388 Still under warranty. Hear nowadays quite ex. Any workshop to recommend other than Wearnes Try Allan at https://www.facebook.com/allenmotor/ or Gary's Engineering at Ubi. Both are very competent and charges reasonable prices, but have very different working styles. YMMV. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volvo servicing like oil/filter change very simple one. I can even DIY if I want. Not recommended if still under warranty of course. Normal WS also can do simple replacements like brake pads, shocks, belts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
