    Heard from a grapevine source that Volvo service centers are open to Mazda sedan vehicles. How true is this news?

    yes sir. no idea, but considering that the volvo & mazda were subsidiaries of ford motor, it might be possible.

    baka sideline nila ito para may magawa naman yung mga mechanic nila sa casa.
    bihira kasi ang naka-volvo dito sa atin.
    yun nga lang, baka ang singil nila presyong volvo din? ngek!

    i doubt it kasi mazda is opening so many new dealerships and service centers narin now. the CATZ parts/accessories shop along edsa is closing down to make way for a mazda dealer. was just there yesterday talking to one of the guys.

    CATS EDSA closing? Kanino na kaya mapupunta yung PIAA brand? Sana magkaroon sila ng close out sale. :D

    Binalita lang sa akin that Volvo is sourcing out Mazda parts. So why would they want to purchase Mazda parts, replace a part from Volvo cars?

    ungas, tama there is a closeout sale there till the end of the month. super big discounts on the mags and the lights. went in to get some other stuff and i ended up walking out with a set of PIAA HID headlights. arghhhhh!!!!!!

    it's still more expensive than the taiwan brands like vision etc, pero how can you beat PIAA? plus 6000k yung nakuha ko which is just right for me. whitish sya and not blue or purple at all

    zero could be right... volvo might be moonlighting by servicing mazda's to add to their revenue. Also, they might be doing this in preparation for the introduction of the new Volvo S40, Mazda 3 and Ford Focus which all share the same platform... duh!?

    My office is very near CATS Greenhills and yup , totong they will open a MAzda dealership soon in the parts/accessories showroom near PGA cars.

    About Volvo servicing Mazdas, I doubt cuz Ive been going to both Makati and Ortigas showrooms last week and la ako nakitang Mazda even one.

    By the way, the new Volvo S40 and V50 is already available although wala pang formal launch and if naka display na sa showroom nila. Tanung nyo nalang sa sales rep and I'm sure they can show it to you if its in their service area.

    Just received delivery of my 2004 S40 2.4i last week and I'm very satisfied with it.

    yes, im sure the T5 will outperform the current 325 and yet cost much less.

    dunno when local Volvo dealers will bring them in but im sure they will eventually

    The S40 wagon is also very cute and has been on display at Orchard road in Singapore for more than a month already.
