I have a question I own a 2016 Volvo S60 T6 with less than 47k miles on it. Recently the alternator froze causing the serpentine belt to snap and I think damaged the head. I am showing zero compression in the one cylinder I tested. A head job and new alternator from Volvo is $9400 is it worth investing the money into the car? It is otherwise in excellent condition but I’m worried about longevity when doing a repair like this.
