Quite welcome. That is what this site is all about, no bling, just helping keep the Volvos on the road with the least amount of cost. Unless it is a critical part where OEM is called for.

As for the CC going bad, that is usually due to 87 octane gasoline or a few trips to Mexico and getting leaded gasoline? The lower octane tends to pollute the converter because of the knock sensors making the engine run rich, which also causes the O2 sensors to get coated and respond ever more slowly.

Get a newer Volvo, California model, when you get to the West coast. The testing out there is pretty strict and they don't like cars from out of state.
