Help: ABS Related S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be crankyding on  Wed Apr 9 11:00 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Thanx for all the advises, I really appreciated. I did what you suggested, called a few Speedy and brought it to the one in Oakville. It turned out that there was nothing wrong with the ABS sensor. They took it apart and showed me what was wrong with the brake system. And guess what? I fixed it for $511 (total including labor and tax) with Volvo parts which Speedy ordered from the dealer. They replaced the rotors, pads, and shoes. ABS light is gone now and the car brakes so much better than before. If I didn't have to tow my car twice and paid $100 for inpection at the dealer, I would of saved myself a total of $1000. With the money I saved, I can go to Cancun for a week!!! I hope for those of you who read this learned a lesson. Here are the price comparisons again.

Volvo Speedy
Sensor $458 + tax Nothing wrong with them
Rotors/Pads/Shoes $247/$155/$485 + tax $511 tax included

I am sure that anyone who owns a Volvo is capable of realizing what a rip off Volvo dealer really is. If you think the dealer mechanics knows everything about Volvo cars, think again!!! Many Thanx to JR Ewing!!!
