First time in a long time I've taken her in. I love to do work myself and taking her in is 'cheating' a bit. Maybe I think about this stuff too much...

Anyway, driver's side door checkstrap broke about a month ago: https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/trip_reports.php top paragraph.

That fix plus fresh brake fluid was $190 at Katy's Northern European repair shop. Fair deal to know that my door isn't going to bend itself off backwards in a stiff wind. :)
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
