I have bought a MOST bus bypass plug so will try test all the modules in the network so I can make an informed decision at the dealer.

I don’t have access to a VIDA platform, but it sounds like that would confirm if that is the problem. It seems like each module is coded to the car so parts have to be bought from and fitted by a main dealer.

I wouldn’t be so bothered but my V70 helped ease my wallet of £1600 last Friday!
You are best finding someone with a decent Volvo code reader. I would help out but you are miles away. The mileage is low and something must have come loose, unless the unit has blown for some odd reason. People don't seem to post much about this kind of fault and there are plenty of V40s older than yours with sat nav. Hoping this will be an easy one. The XC90 liked draining my wallet (in similar fashion to your V70), which is ultimately why I made the call to move it on. Endless expense with cars.
