I will be in Australia in July and would like to take the part from the UK to fit it as the quotes to do this in Australia are ~£650 for the part and labour!
I would like to buy a second hand part in the UK and fit it myself. I've looked online to see how to fit it, and it seems within my capabilities and tool kit (apart from having it calibrated or plugged into the special Volvo diagnostics system, which is going to cost me $70).
My issue is that I can't find a definitive statement of the part number. Can you guide me to some source that can confirm this?
The VIN of the car is YV1CT714691521918, if this can be used to confirm the part number.
Thanks

The first step in the process is updating the Steering angle sensor software before you replace it , it reduces the sensitivity to false alarms . Unless yours is physically broken of course .
IF you want the correct part you need to know if it has 2 or 3 stage air bag , and whether it has DSTC or not and whether it is a USA market car . There are 3 different versions
If it has DSTC ABS and 2 stage air bag PN = 31264468
But best to ask the Australian Volvo dealer as cars do vary a lot in different markets .
