Volvo dealer quoted £250/injector plus labour.

So, taken the car to a local Volvo specialist. No fault codes showing, mechanics reckon it's an injector problem. They have quoted me £30/injector to have them checked + 1 hour labour (£52 +vat) to get them out and in. They can get any faulty injectors refurbished for £125 each with 1 yr guarantee. That sounds cheaper than Volvo!

Car is at the garage now. Should know more in the next few days. Will keep you posted.

If this works, I will give people the garage details for those that are interested. They have done work for me before and are very good. Garage is in Norfolk.
