my boyfriend's car has shit the bed so we are going to have a mobile mechanic come to our house to assess my volvo
if the repairs for my volvo are cheaper than the repairs for his car, we're gonna sell his car as is and someone will probably buy it for parts and fix my car! i might get my volvo back! hoooray but in all reality it'll probably cost a buttload to repair my car anyway i'll be cautiously optimistic --- http://i.imgur.com/4ihiyS2.jpg "I am not gay!

It's a stupid broke belt/chain. Calling it. it might be something with the fuel injector according to my coworkers but then they said it may really just have been an issue with the computer system causing it to govern at a low MPH because my dashboard elements didn't work before it stopped moving really. the issue is that it's been sitting for so long i need to have them jump the battery probably to assess the car and then if i do get it repaired i'll need to flush and replace probably all the fluids. then we'll need to get it re-registered and insured again. but i'm hoping it's less than my boyfriend's repairs and something easy like what you say so we can have two cars. --- http://i.imgur.com/4ihiyS2.jpg "I am not gay!

It's only gonna cost $70 to have a mobile mechanic come do a diagnostic on it. That's not bad at all.

sweet so the mobile mechanic is gonna come to my house at 6pm.
i got a $20 off coupon for being a first time customer so the diagnostic fee is only gonna be $50. and if i decide to get the repairs done $30 of that $50 will go towards the repairs. wooo --- http://i.imgur.com/4ihiyS2.jpg "I am not gay!

Truthfully that's kind of dank. Usually the full diagnostic price will go toward repair as long as you do it through them. i don't think dank means what you think it means anymore --- http://i.imgur.com/4ihiyS2.jpg "I am not gay!

Needs some ignition coils, spark plugs and all new fluids. They're recommending a new battery too. That's to get it running. Then I'll probably need to do something for the dash board to get it back up and running.

The only thing I could find is a computer hardware issue that may cost $1k to fix but my coworkers were telling me Volvos have this kind of issue randomly sometimes and it may be an easy fix. But it's definitely not the fuses because we tried that. --- http://i.imgur.com/4ihiyS2.jpg "I am not gay! Can't you get that through your head?

yes maam
to replace the broken touchscreen in my galant, i would have to rip out the entire middle column, and even then you can't just replace the screen apparently. you have to replace the whole...thingy. the cheapest i've found is $1200 and whatever. i can live with not being able to use GPS. everything else can be controlled with knobs like the radio, and AC. we're just using it as a display. it switches to the backup cam automatically, too, so whatever. --- killin' darth vader with my mother****in' kick drum ...

lmao the mobile mechanic said my boyfriend's car only needs like $200 in repairs and he isn't sure what the other mechanic was thinking saying it needed all those other repairs.
he's gonna fix it and sell it and we'll get my volvo up and running because his car has no a/c --- http://i.imgur.com/4ihiyS2.jpg "I am not gay! Can't you get that through your head? I am very much aroused at the site of a naked woman!" - Dan0429 ... Copied to Clipboard!
