A 2 week vacation in Bermuda, for the Volvo dealer.
I just looked at Strandbergauto.com for their inventory. Around 100K miles = $1000 for a new turbo engine, tested. Still will need timing belt, etc. and a lot of labor to install. A used 854 can be had for around 2500 - 3000.

So, I guess it is either your labor + parts, or a new car. I would imagine around $1200 for an independent.

Please answer, we need to know if the advice is good or bad. The 164 has a new home, all I am left with are 2 turbos :)
