Volvo parts reviews

Had my pads changed (Volvo service centre) at 30k ish miles, at the main dealer and the discs were fine.

I know my 2005 S60 alternator has a chip in it that is necessary to talk to the car's ECU so be careful buying aftermarket.

Assuming this is a T5 (5cyl) that price is about right for the dealer. I had my alternator replaced under warranty about 2 years ago and the billed price was right about 1350 for just the alt replacement.

If it is a coil then use only oem or used oem from junkyard. Other brands are not just good enough

Even the OEM Volvo plugs are good for about 40K miles. 99% chance it’s the coil. Every single time I have had a misfire, it’s been a coil, so much so that I literally keep 1-2 spare new ones floating around at all times.

What bloody manufacturer is this? For my Volvo XC60 it’s around £330 for front discs and pads main dealer

I have a 2003 XC70. The coils go out suddenly with no warning. But they're cheap. Grab a new set and you'll be good to go.

I bought my Volvo XC90 with Hankooks. I replaced them when they wore out with Michelins. The Hankooks weren't horrible, but the Michelins were enough better to make them worth the extra money, IMO.

TYC is as bad as it gets.

Try this shit on a Volvo, the freaking worst
