My 2002 S60 went to the shop today for annual state inspection. I got a call telling me that my resonator isn't resonating anymore. The service writer told me that it may well run me more than a grand by the time that they are done because of the way that old exhaust parts don't like to come apart and what I may wind up needing.

She did say that there is a shop in Homestead that other customers have gone to that does a great job with cutting and piecing systems together. Unfortunately, she doesn't know its name.

Anyone here have a clue?

 

Never reported back that I did find the muffler shop that I was seeking. It was going to be just the resonator for about $200 but when they got the car up in the air they found that the muffler had a hole in the top. Sadly due to Covid, he couldn't get the Volvo specific muffler so he found something that fit. $350 out the door.
