Spiderbubbu aka Ms Hawkeye... I'm a ~120 miles north of you in Rochester, MN. I don't know of any Volvo indies in your area, but there are some in my area . Google provide this European shop in Waterloo- http://www.lichty.com/products.html - again don't know anything about them - but agree with abscate's comments your current mechanic is not providing much service.

Menards home improvement center or any auto parts store will have the Dexron 3 that is required for the transmission drain and fill which is a 45minute job.

I'm a level 3 mechanic based on the current MVS Mechanic poll - https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums ... =1&t=77006 . I don't go your direction very often, but maybe able to offer assistance.

Don't let them powerflush the tranny. Tell them to do it your way or take the car home and do it yourself. It's really easy and quick
