Booked mine in this morning with the same fault - airbags, anti-skid and failure to start. Had to trailer it to the showroom at a cost of £60. Girl on the counter says they may go for a "goodwill" refit from Volvo. As I just paid out £160 for an ignition switch refit - another inherent fault - I will scrap the car rather than pay up to £1500 to sort out Volvo's failings on a 2005 S40 with 26000 miles from new.
