Apparently had been serviced mid week at a miscellaneous garage. The warning I thought was the service light not reset!
Got home and looking through the manual discovered the oil could've been over-filled! Great!
Could'nt read the oil level, so a drive to a more level place and 5 min wait.
Electronic oil level sensor confirmed oil over-filled.
Also noticed the plastic cover over passenger front pillar where the bonet catch resides has been took off and not replaced correctly, shoddy workmanship eh?
Rang car salesman and need to take back Tuesday, just what I wanted!
Is there anyway to discover by how much the oil has been overfilled?
Cheers

yes but i would take it to a volvo dealer who knows how to deal with this problem . also i would be fairly sure they did not use the volvo approved 0w/20 oil (VCC RBS0-2AE)
It would be best if volvo changed the oil with the correct 5 litre quantity and quality then reset the oil level sensor to end this problem . then send your supplier the bill ...
