Thanks Tim,

Worth noting on your website - when I put in my Reg it brings up kits containing 7L of oil, Volvo revised the oil amount to 5.5L for the C30/S40/V50/C70mk2 2.4L D5 engines due to oil rising in the sump (there was an associated software update and revised oil amount sticker for the engine).

I know that for legitmate reasons you cannot rely on hearsay from an internet forum so it would be worth contacting Volvo yourself to confirm and updating the kits on your website - working with data I know this may or may not be trivial depending on where you may source your car info database from.
But as you can imagine, for those who know, it would seem an unattractive proposition to pay for an extra litre of unrequired oil.

Cheers
Dave
