Transmission problem
1993 Volvo 850 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

HI
Our Volvo has been a bottomless pit of repairs. It has had a complete valve, fuel injectors, fuel pump.....now it needs another fuel pump and possibly needs transmission work. When do we cut our losses and stop putting money into this car? Or is it worth investing even more money? Is is commom to have the fuel pump go out again in just 2 yrs????

Hi there,

I would be cutting my losses and get rid of this car, this pump should not fail so soon, and the transmission will be expensive, i would look at getting out of it asap.
