It's ok, but Like most people who fly solo, you miss out on the collective intelligence of the community.
Example...on the front strut replacement,it's common knowledge here that the much more robust XC90 strut bearings are a Volvo recommended replacement over what he used.
He has nice clear pictures and good writing skills. Make that excellent writing skills.

+1 on the above! The peer review and feedback at MVS (and other open forums) is a huge benefit. MVS is especially great because so much of the feedback here is detail-specific and constructive.
1997 855 GLT (Light Pressure Turbo) still going strong. Previous: 1986 240 GL rusted out in '06, 1985 Saab 900T rusted out in '95, 1975 Saab 99 rusted out in '95, 1973 Saab 99 rusted out in '94
