Recommend 240 mechanic in northwest / central New Jersey

Post by FireFox31 »

Hello, my local "Volvo god" mechanic is closing up shop after 30+ years. Can anyone recommend a shop with Volvo experience in the northwest and/or central New Jersey areas?

It is important that the shop is good with with 240's. I want to keep mine running and functioning well, but my local dealership seems to simply not care.

It is also important that the shop have "the computer" / VADIS / the Volvo scan tool. My newer Volvos are reporting errors which need to be checked.

Thanks for your help!

I answered you on your other posting. I would say that either a shop is good or it is not....wouldn't really be dependent on whether it's a 240, 850 or V70...
Hope you find a good shop or mechanic. Good luck!
