Hello everyone, I recently bought a 1998 S90 with 83,000 miles(and i love it ). I took it in to get looked at by a local mechanic the does only Volvo repairs at the reccomendation of a friend and I want to make sure these prices are about right. Heres what he said needs to be repaired "Now".
1. Power steering pump leaking. Est. $450. will look for a used pump to lower cost.
2. Rear brake rotors are warped and causing pulsation. Est $330 to replace rear rotors and pads.
Then things that need to be soon:
1. Tires rotated $32
2. rear muffler hangers: one broken one split, and recomend removing dust sheilds. $40-$80
3. a/c system cycles on and off too much. May need recharge with dye. $110
4. 80,000 mile service $70
5. Tune up at 90,000 miles $250

I know imports are more expensive but $450 for a steering pump seems on the steep end. Do these prices seem in the normal range? Also I live much closer to a Volvo dealership then the mechanic. What would an oil change run at the dealer? Thanks sorry for the long first post.
