Alright, y'all I need some info from the experts on this one.... I am thinking about doing an engine overhaul on my 2007 Volvo. I have VED-12 engine in it with 465 horses. The truck now has about 1016000 miles. So I need some approx prices to see how much I can expect to spend on this.....

Congrats on making it past a million in a Volvo engine. Not sure on prices, you may want to call the dealer and some other shops. More than likely, you will not be able to get after market kits for the engine.

Why are you considering doing an overhaul? I've seen those engines go 1.5 million miles plus.

Last one we did including injectors and turbo ran around 16k. I think with the parts and all and it has to be oem if u want to get it done right replacing liners pistons head ure probably going to be somewhere around 11k or so being that u do at a shop and not the dealer sometimes they get ridiculously expensive. Something u might want to think of is asking volvo how much a long block costs it come remaned from the factory with a really good warranty that cover everything and I don't think there is a huge price difference When I say long block I mean from the Valve cover to the oil pan everything new nothing on the sides. This is how it comes.

Just maintain it a little closer than before. Do regular oil samples especially.
For the loss of power check the air filter, run the overhead, and check the charge air cooler.Meho1969 Thanks this. -
How is the oil consumption from oil change to oil change
