Re: Are Volvo parts expensive?

I would agree that Volvo parts are more expensive at the dealer than through an independent parts house. I am fortunate to have an independent Volvo parts distributor near where I live.

The most amazing thing I have discovered about Volvo parts is that they are readily available. When I bought our 1986 740 two years ago, I was amazed that every little factory part I needed was available, from either the dealer or the parts house.

Also, for the do-it-yourselfer, the Volvo is very simple to work on.
