Re: [DML] Woes

[Andrew Prentis <aprentis@xxxx>]

Hi Pete,
I ran into exactly this same problem with my car
earlier this year.No one wanted to touch it,even Volvo
specialists.One guy even said I should take the car to
the rubbish dump and be done with it!Geez.
All I can suggest is talk to other owners near to you
to find out who they go too with their car,ask the DML
for ideas on any problems,and possibly another owner
can come and look at the car for you.Guaranteed
someone on the list will know the solution to any
problems with whatever car you get,and depending on
how confident/capable you are at working on cars maybe
try some of the work yourself.It gives you a huge
feeling of accomplishment when you have repaired the
problem yourself.Just make sure you get a workshop and
parts manual,you'll need it.
