Here is an interesting two-part story about Courtesy Volvo Service.
Story1: About a year ago, my son was visiting from CA. While here, his check engine light came on. He took his Volvo here to have it checked. First it was diagnosed as problem A which could be fixed for $350. Yeah, that didn't solve it. Then it was problem B which could be fixed for $820. Yeah, that didn't fix it. Then it was problem C which could be fixed for $510. Nope, that didn't fix it...... This went on for about 45 days with a total cost of $8,500. Every time it was "well, the most recent fix was needed, but so was the previous one".
Story 2: My Volvo engine light was on so I took it to these guys to have it checked. They gave it a check over, and they said it was problem A which they fixed for $410. Had it back for a week, and the light came back on. Back in it went, and I got the same excuse as with my son's car - "well B needs fixing, but we had to fix A as well". In this case B was a leaking head gasket that was somehow missed in the first check. But they'd be happy to fix it for $4500. I looked up all the symptoms of a bad head gasket, my car had none. I decided given the experience with my son's car, it would be a good idea to get a 2nd opinion. The second place ran all the diagnostics, and said I had a bad fuel regulator - fixed for $320 parts and labor. That was 2 months ago, and no engine light on and no problems at all.
Do yourself a big favor, stay away from this place. They are either wildly incompetent or just plain dishonest.
