I've move from getting my MOT at a place I've used for 15 years it seems every time I took it in there was all ways a wheel bearing or some thing needed doing. Two years ago it was the same ,wheel bearing on the outside needs changing. Took it to some one else and it passed and has done for the last two years. Ford Motor Co wanted £1100 to replace the clutch mass fly wheel assembly after the Focus had only done 46,000 miles, seem a weakness on the design according to some meccanics. Ford Motor Co are making a killing replacing the same unit on the TRANSIT Van after the same mileage. I had a good independant meccanic do the job for under £800 including a full service. Very suprised about the Volvo though.4D
