Default VOC IS A WASTE OF MONEY

I Have asked for help on this forum a few times and it seems no one reads this forum much or something as I never get any replies so when my subscription runs out I will not bother renewing. Thanks for your help people.

This forum is for anyone - VOC member or not. It is not my responsibility nor any other VOC official to answer any of the questions posted here, although we do where we can.

I put this forum on the web some time ago as there were not many such places at the time, apart from Brickboard in the USA. It is an open forum for anyone to try to resolve a problem by other users posting replies to questions - if they know the answer or able to offer some help.

VOC members have direct access to our other forms of technical support with the register keepers and/or technical director. Have you tried these?

If you want any specialist help with your problem then please contact me direct.

Strange really seeing as of your last 10 posts (seen through a search) 7 of them had from 1 to 6 replies.

That doesn't seem a bad response rate to me.

Hi Gran,
Although the VOC essentially provides the resources for this site, you don't have to be a member to make use of the knowledge that you will find here. My background is in running an audio visual company, therefore I find I can help with incar audio etc to a limited degree. Others here have individually and collectively a vast knowledge ranging from electrical, mechanical, interior care, exterior care and all of the emotional and practical experiences which come with being involved with running one of the last great individual marques. All knowledge is given on a free, friendly and unconditional basis. When you post, you never know who is reading and who will respond, you take pot luck that the experience you require to resolve your problem isn't on holiday, tied up with their job or family or whatever. I promise that if you continue to seek here you will find. I hope you will. I probably don't have the knowledge to fix your car but someone here will and will impart that knowledge happily and generously. Thanks for being a member from a member, we all here rely on the generosity of others.

Free speech is open to everyone as is this forum, and the wealth of knowledge that is dispensed here is second to none, as also is the humour, keep up the good work chaps :)

Cheers friend,sorry, just venting frustration I guess,Volvo maniac who cant afford to use main dealers so rely on little knowledge I possess,but as I am moving up the Volvo years am finding the science is starting to baffle me, good old points and plugs days are gone.
No offence meant to anyone. Problem is this time I can't even tow it to dealer as Auto Box.
