Hi All,

Sorry I wasn't clear about the turbo hose. It was 4" in length.

We think this all sounds very suspicious as well. Also, Volvo NA has closed our complaint case and we've contacted Volvo Sweden, too.

What does the warranty say for geniune Volvo replacement parts? I shouldn't think it would matter how the part broke, just that it broke again.

Thank you for your input....I'll keep you posted. We have a meeting tomorrow with the owner of the local Volvo place. Meanwhile, the Evansville dealership offered us a whopping $200 for my beloved car. :(

PS - Any thoughts on whether that temp sensor should have been replaced when the temp kit was replaced? Could the sensor have been bad and the car overheated (both times) and ruined the head? I'm reaching for anything that makes sense, because that 4" hose sure doesn't...
