Default rebuild

I'm burning oil in my 02 s60 and I'm pretty sure i need piston rings but im looking for a complete rebuild kit and cant find one anywhere. Do they make a full rebuild kit or do i have to buy everything seperately?

What happened to the engine swap and AWD installation?

I am by no means a spokesman for IPD or mechanic. But I have researched lots on Volvo's especially these era ones.

Also this is assuming your radiator is good and your engine temperature gauge on your dashboard cluster isn't running hot.

Not sure what they cost, but something like a throttle bottle spacer could make a huge difference. Too me heat could be resulting in your burning of oil. I haven't checked out how difficult it is to DIY. But might be worth looking into. Again I am no mechanic, I just try to suggest potential causes and fixes to avoid expensive repairs.
