If failing that it ranges from 500 to 900 for a new valve body.

What problems have you got?
Firstly - get it into a dealer or suitable indie and make sure it has the latest software - this can make a difference - and did so in my case.
Whilst the TF80 was used by Saab, Jaguar, Land Rover, Vauxhall/Open, Nissan, etc. Volvo did make their own modifications and if you are looking at a full gearbox swap you need to get one with the correct final drive ratio (i.e. not from a D5) and from an AWD car....
If you're doing the work yourself its worth experimenting but if you're paying someone I'd recommend handing it over to a specialist.
