I wanted to thank you all. We've recently started getting ABS warnings. The pads have plenty of meat left on them. I checked the ABS reluctor ring and couldn't believe it had cracked. I had to change the front droplinks anyway.

Massive thanks to all of you. I just unclipped the ABS sensor cable from the 2 mounting points and removed the upper strut bolt, loosened the lower strut bolt and the hub fell towards me. I wiggled the driveshaft a bit to get the spline out of the hub. Refitted the bolt ASAP to prevent CV grease oozing out of the spline and removed all of the rust and filed it down to bright metal. I bought the replacement rings off Ebay. Refitting was easy with your advice after gently heating with the gas torch for making creme brullee. Ordered new hub bolts from Volvo, but for the initial test-drive, no more ABS problems!

Thank you!
