She made it
I missed the big moment but today was the milestone.
I am not an expert mechanic, but I will attempt any repair. Worst case scenario is I screw it up worse than it was.

Hurray!
For what it's worth, once I hit 200,000 miles, my Volvo mysteriously...stopped breaking.

Thats because by then you have corrected everything Volvo did wrong.
