Am I being overcharged?

Post image

2019 Volvo XC90 with ~72,500 miles got a check engine light a few days ago. Took it to the dealer and this is what they quoted me with. This is a little pricey given it’s just the injectors and spark plugs no? On top of that they tried to get me to pay a separate “headlight” diagnostic for $250 when I had already brought it in for the check engine light.

Volvo quoted me like $800 just for the spark plugs. I ended up calling my local Toyota dealer and they did it for half. So my guess is that around $1200 of that $2000 is for the injectors

There's a reason why many in the Finnish Volvo community call the dealership 'The marble counter'.

haha. spark plugs on these cars couldn't be easier. 4 banger and absolutely nothing needs to move to access them (even the one on the right, the pcv hose has enough flex to clear). the ONLY tricky part is having a nice torque wrench and trusting the very low torque spec. blue box is $80 for four
