Where is the "problem solved" button?

As it turns out, the best way to get a replacement key is with a metal detector. Thanks for your help.

My Volvo is stuck on the side of the road. Lost the only key on a walk with the dogs. What is the best/cheapest option for getting a replacement. Not a FOB. Just a key.

Hello all. So here it is...

After going through the suggestions posted on here that we could handle ourselves, we brought it to a highly recommended Volvo shop that determined that we do indeed have a blown head gasket. My fuel pump module is also failing and the coils are at the end of their life ...

Hi All. Thanks for all the knowledge and advice. I sure have a long homework list!
I will fill you in shortly about all the steps I have taken so far, and what the results were, so we can hopefully eliminate some possibilities.

Be back very soon with results and I really appreciate all the time ...

Just do this when it runs rough, don't replace all coils just to see www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDwtZCWU7u8

The things you've touched with the compression test are the coil wiring - look closely where these get into the coil for cracks, and see if some wires are getting crushed by the plastic cover ...

Also another clue:

Even though my car had a rough start sometimes with minor vibration that abated after a minute, this new aggressive engine vibration started shortly after we did the compression test and reassembled everything. And it does not subside after warming up.

Today I will swap out coils to different cylinders and read the codes to see if it tells me anything. Will let you know what I find.

When I started it this morning, after charging the battery overnight, with the coils still in original places, it did run, albeit very rough (it did start though ...

Yes a mystery! But just to be clear...it was only 3 hrs sitting after plug clean and gap with good start that this started happening. And then next day with new plugs installed same thing. Just want to clarify for clue purposes...

I also had a neighbor drop off his code reader. I will check them ...

Ohhhhh! I forgot to add that it was vibrating and rattling quite fierce! And the check engine light was flashing.
