Our Volvo is QUIET!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, it&#8217;s true, we found a new great repair shop and they said that the motor is vibrating due to the transmission mounts needing to be replaced. So&#8230;just $120 later and the wagon is whisper quiet. We never imagined it even had the ability to drive so quietly, I actually have to turn the radio down instead of up! I also mentioned that the blower for the A\/C had gone out and he got it working by smacking it with a hammer. He told me where it was located so one afternoon I proceeded to take it apart to see if I could get a replacement part myself. Well, I got it out and learned how it worked (and didn&#8217;t work). I put it back in and banged on it until it came on. So until I get to the junkyard to find a replacement blower, I&#8217;ll just teach Katherine how to play Whack-A-Mole with the car&#8217;s blower so she&#8217;ll (and the baby) will get some A\/C blasting through the wagon (which does have more volume of air to cool since it&#8217;s a wagon). To finish things up, I have a longgggg weekend since I took tomorrow and Tuesday (Monday&#8217;s a Holiday) off. I&#8217;ll post some pics of whatever we end up doing &#8211; weather permitting as usual.
