Better than nothing, but not a solution. Incidentally, the locks and trim are not covered by the used car warranty.
Hi,

I wan't commenting on your case individually, I do genuinely feel sorry for you and am not really impressed with Volvo only changing one injector at a time - as they used to change all five in one sitting, regardless of if one or five injectors were faulty at the time.

All I was saying is that it is wise to do ones homework before looking at a type / model of car, then checking the cars history to see what the score is. It just saves a lot of possible headache in the future. This counts for any car be it a top of the range Porsche (which aren't without their problems!) or a lowly Ford Ka!

All cars have their 'weak points' and common failures, I can't think of a single car off the top of my head which hasn't.
