My boss has an 850 (non turbo) that is using a lot of oil thru the valve seals (guides?)The dealer in his town told him it was not worth fixing - too complicated.
So the question is - how bad expensive can this be - and is it something that will come back to haunt you - by not being fixed right?

I just want to keep him in the Volvo family.

Thanks for any help,
Andrew in AL
