Servicing.... 400 96

posted by  someone claiming to be kdar on  Mon Jan 15 11:09 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hi all! I just bought a '96 850 Turbo (something wrong with my browser and

so I am not sure if I chose the right Model). Enjoying every minute in it.

It has a 'SPORT' option. What does it do exactly? I felt the suspensions

hardening (when at speed) when I used this option. What else happens?

The car is due for a 60K servicing. I am in the Silicon Valley and need

some recommendations for a good place to go. I called a dealership who

quoted me $529 (without tax). Is that too much or are there better options

out there. Is it better to go to a dealership or a mechanic who works only

on Volvos ?

Any advice on this is most appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Kdar
