Write a purpose built csv parser using ranges. It should take only about half an hour. I know, I know not very helpful. But a custom built parser will work better for you I think.
Yep, I can parse it myself, but I want to try to avoid this (reduce amount of source code).

Maybe there is posiible something like this:
foreach(record; file.byLine.fixQuotes.joiner("\n").csvReader!...
?

What types should get/return the function (fixQuotes) if I want change the line after .byLine?
When compiler says:
"candidates are:
src\phobos\std\array.d(2534,5): std.array.replaceFirst(E, R1, R2)(E[] subject, R1 from, R2 to) if (isDynamicArray!(E[]) && isForwardRange!R1 && is(typeof(appender!(E[])().put(from[0..1]))) && isForwardRange!R2 && is(typeof(appender!(E[])().put(to[0..1]))))"

it's scares me and I hiding under the table.

I thought about something like
auto fixQuotes(string text)
{
     if (text.canFind("\"\""))
     {
         // some magic
     }

     return text;
}

but obviously, it won't compiled

Something along the lines of:

.byLine.map!(a => a.fixQuotes).joiner("\n").csvReader!...

Either way, you're using ranges!
Its even the same amount of code, if not less.
