Who has diagnostics kit available and where are you?
I noted that a thread was started with a member location map. I 've added to it and included text to say I have a VCT/Vida combo available for code reading and re-setting. I've also seen that Mike (outnumbered) has done the same. The problem is, there is no way of highlighting this so it's obvious to someone looking for local diagnostics.
http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=131398 I've asked a mod if the thread can be made a sticky and even if the forum can have something like as a permanent (and relatively prominent) fixture. In the meantime, to help members in trouble maybe we could start up a list here? Something simple, who - what you got - roughly where. I'll start: Robbie H - VCT2000/Vida 2008c - Manchester

Vol-FCR
and an ELM327 generic reader with a few different programs. Have used VOL-FCR to reset the service light on my 850 but it won't read codes, don't think it likes the USB-Serial converter i use with my laptop! Has been fine on a 99 V70 tho and should work on most other models that are OBD2 equipped. The 850 is a bit fussy when it comes to diagnostics! I'm in Derby if i can help anyone out.
