I’ve done the starter, and alternator, on all three Volvo’s.
I take them to Browning’s Electric on Independence BLVD in Virginia Beach for a rebuild. $100 cash. I know the core is good, the part fit is good, and the job is done right. 7 or 8 years on some of them.
But without knowing local shops, it’s hard to recommend that approach to somebody in another town...
