Volvo Repair: radiator, leaking radiator, pain in the neck
Question1995 850 turbo. We got the coolant sensor thing fixed a while ago. Thanks for your help. we love our volvo mechanic. at a recent oil change he told us that our radiator and water pump are leaking. Radiator replaced 1yr 3 weeks ago so no part no longer under warranty. Is this easy to replace?
AnswerLori, in a word, No. The turbo radiator is rather a pain in the neck to do. The water pump is run by the timing belt so there is no room for error there. If it were me, I would warranty the rad for you. Its only out of warranty by 3 weeks for crying out loud. Or if you want to put up a stink with him, maybe meet him halfway or something. Roger
