Marc does a great job. He explains what's needed, and why. He gets the job done right, and on time. I saved a lot of money by having him do repairs for me, instead of the dealer. I highly recommend him for Volvo service.

I agree with the prior poster that Marc may not be the cheapest mechanic around in the short term, but when you're trying to keep a high mileage Volvo on the road, he is cost effective because he does a good job. He is honest and doesn't do unnecessary repairs - unless you want him to.

Mark has worked on my 1986 and 1993 Volvos and has always been one who offers more than one repair path based on the car's age and mileage. I had an automatic transmission shifting problem. He test drove the car and told me to simply shift it manually when starting off. He charged nothing for the service and within a couple of months the trans worked normally. He is not inexpensive, but he is worth every dollar one pays him. He works on your car himself. I have been to many Volvo mechanics and he is the best Volvo mechanic in the DC metro area, especially for folks with high mileage bricks.

I agree with the other comments: work was superb, fast, and Mark explained everything to me. They fixed my car the first time. I brought my '92 Volvo 240 here based on this listing, after taking it to three other mechanics who could not fix it. They know Volvos!

I've taken my '98 Volvo in three times over the last year and the repairs are always cheaper than the dealer. Mark explains issues and does not attempt to sell repairs/services that are not needed. Everything has been fixed correctly the first time, and always within the time Mark committed to.

I have brought my V70 3 times and twice Mark diagnosed the problems for free. One time he referred me to a Indie with Dealership computers to get a software upgrade and the second time he recommended I attempt to get a dealer to fix a problem for free under an obscure recall (recall didnt show up under my vin but he correctly suggested they would fix it for free - saved me $1200). Third time he did a great job helping me with a radiator that leaked into my Tranny! I would say he is very very honest as he could have fleeced me on the #2 fuel pump problem but didnt. As with any mechanic as for specific quotes before any work is done and verify the price by calling other mechanics for quotes. I would recommend Mark and will use him again for my Volvo.
