Question that...

"As has been noted, the indies are more likely to innovate, to FIX the problem rather than just throwing on a new part."

Can you give me an example of that regarding a newer FWD Volvo? That notion might have been true at one time when technicians could actually adjust things such as idle speed, fuel mixture, timing, belt tension, etc, etc BUT those days have been gone now for many years, like since the days of the older LH2.2 EFI on 80's 200/700 models.

The fact is there's no more adjustments to be made, only parts can be replaced with newer cars.

Why would a guy w/o education and experience with a product know more than those who'ld have it?
