Assuming it’s the pump in the tank that has problems, does anyone know where I can source that part from and how big a job it is to replace?

Thanks

I replaced my in tank pump recently after it failed. It was a MAIN dealer only part though. Cost £400 but with the swansea dealer forum discount was £300. Its relatively easy but make sure you empty the tank first and have lots of cloths.
The hardest part is replacing the heatshields as the screws had all rusted off on mine.

BUT - I agree with the other poster above - get it plugged into a vida and have it diagnosed properly first - parts bingo on Volvo will be expensive.

PS change you fuel filter first with a genuine volvo one.
