Any mechanics with their own shop that are reliable and reasonable?

Not that I am aware of. I help a lot of people that have both good and bad to say about the repair shops. None of them are priced cheaply. There is Nashville Volvo - have Randy do your work he is the best there. Then you have Sniders and import specialties and eurofix. I hear both good and nightmares from people I talk to.

If you are going to repair something yourself and need a hand then let me know how I can help.

I've been taking my cars to Steagall Automotive in Murfreesboro and he cannot be beat. He's a one man shop and has been working on volvos only for 20+ years. He doesn't have a computer, so he can't do anything that requires software updates, but he's hands down the best at anything mechanical. Prices are very reasonable and he's a true mechanic, not a parts replacer. He's saved me a lot of money over the years, compared to what the Volvo dealer would have charged.

I just moved to Nashville and am looking to get my PCV breather system cleaned/replaced. Do you guys know how much that fix would usually cost?

Also, JDS60R, if you have any experience with this fix and would be willing to work with me, I would love to have a forum member perform the fix since you guys know Volvo's so well.

Thanks,
Mike
