Are there any garages that repair Volvos at low cost or at least affordably? Could you give one or more examples of pricing for service done at garage(s) that offer parts and labour for Volvos at affordable rates, if any? I need regular maintenance for a 1997 Volvo S70 T5 SE.

Koons on Venable does Volvo's.

All indy shops you really only save on shop rate, in all honesty don't expect to save a lot. You can up to 30% but probably not more.

Something to consider is no receipt ie cash deals, it is very hard to go after the shop if a major component fail eg say a re manufactured transmission etc.

+1 for Kon's Auto. The guy used to work at Volvo dealership so he knows his Volvo's and does his work well. He tries to get you the best parts at the lowest prices and labour rates are low as well.

I recommend Gold Wrench Automotives in North Vancouver. Seen plenty of Volvo's there before. Not a Volvo specialist but depending on the job they can probably do it.

Best of Luck.

I went to Kons for well over 10 years when I had my volvo and now that its gone I take my pathfinder to him. He is a honest guy that won't screw you over. Highly recommend him.
