Does volvo still make old parts for 240s and such.
just wondering because I ordered a back ordered oe
quality part from ipd. And was wondering how they get these parts and if they will. Thank you

 

Call the dealer and see if the part is still available. Overall yes they still supply parts due to the vast number of those cars worldwide that are still in service.

 

thanks I just wanted to see if they still make the parts my. lock out mech broke and ordered a new one. I guess it's back ordered because they have to get them

 

Depends on what you need. Parts that are needed to actually run the car are available after market and OEM, things like, fuel pumps, brakes, etc. Body parts, things that keep the car pretty, forget it! Long NLA (no longer available)! Best is to have a good source for used parts, like a junkyard close to where you are. I needed a radiator for a 740 last week, went to PickNpull, got a $40 one from a 240, great deal, done!

 

Ii depends on the dealer as well. I had my local dealer tell me the parts I wanted were NLA, but when I called Tasca Volvo in RI they told me they could be had if I was willing to wait up to 6 weeks for them to come directly from Sweden. I waited and got my parts.
