I have to replace a starter and flywheel on a Volvo 3.0L GSM-A. While looking at prices for this, I have noticed a drastic difference in prices.
I've found that starters run from $49 to $300 for the same Volvo part number. 3860566
And new flywheels from $149 to $600!
I realize that you get what you pay for and that OEM is mostly always better than aftermarket, but a 400% difference!?!?!
What are your thoughts? Would it be ok to get the cheaper ones, or do I always have to B.O.A.T. (break out another thousand)?
Thanks for your input!
