QuestionIt burns about 2-3 quarts a month.
So, how much I should expect this valve job to set me back for?
Can a good mechanic (at the corner) perform such job or should I go to the dealer?
Thanks for your prompt answer..

Jean, Its normal for the 850 to burn about 1 quart every 3k miles. How many quarts is it burning? The only cure is a complete valve job. Roger
AnswerJean, I wouldnt trust Joe's Garage with my Lawn Mower let alone my nice Volvo. The Dealer would be best but will be expensive. Do you have a Volvo specialist shop in town? If not, let me know where you live and I can help you find one. That job will be around 2 G's. Roger
