On a positive side there may be a problem with one certain part that is throwing up all these problems. I had a problem with my 'Anti-Skid Service Required' warning (it also threw up a couple of extra fault codes to boot) and it turned out that their was a problem with certain chassis numbered cars and Volvo fixed mine free of charge!!

Is your S40 still under any warranty? You don't say what year your car is but I can heartily recommend King's Volvo in Hamworthy as they fixed mine and were very quick and very efficient.
Hi Lee,

Thanks for the reply, it is a Jan 2005 54 plate so no warranty with only 50k on the clock so it is not like it is worn out. I have found Kings quite good in the past when they were based in Ferndown, before they moved to Poole.

Have arranged for the RAC to tow it to Kings in Poole, I hope it is just a software glitch!!!!
