My 92 240GL was making some horrible noises, so I took it to a Volvo dealer. Of course they returned a "to-do" list about a mile long that adds up to more than I actually paid for the car.

Here's a list of what they said needed fixing and the cost for it. What I want to know is how much of this could be done by a non-volvo mechanic or myself for substantially cheaper and how much of this can wait. I'm not that smart with this, but it seems to me that fixing the transmission mount (the source of the noise) and the timing belt, are the biggest problems right now.

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Here's the list:

MASS AIR FLOW METER $493.06
RPM SENSOR 165.00
CLAEN AND ADJUST THROTTLE BODY 109.00
FRESH AIR THERMOSTAT 107.00
TRANSMISSION MOUNT 160.00

UNRELATED LIST
PINION SEAL 200.00
FRONT ENGINE SEALS,WATER PUMP AND TIMING BELT 671.00
A/C COMPRESSOR 1225.00
