    Just had the A/C evaporator, dryer bottle, several "O" rings, pollen filter,
    instrument panel illumination bulbs (6), and recirc arm replaced at a local
    repair shop vs. the Volvo dealer. Volvo dealer had quoted $1575 to replace
    the evap, dryer, pollen filter. Local shop did all that plus the light
    bulbs, recirc arm and checked all the coolant hoses for $1007. My 850 now
    cools like when it was brand new. I think I've found a new mechanic, and
    the shop has extremely high quality ratings in the "Checkbook.org"
    publication for my area. My car has 120,000 miles and this was the first
    evap replacement.
