I have taken it to the local garage (not Volvo specialists) and they have said the pump is shot and needs replacing and a new reservoir as mine has swollen (not leaking any fluid but does froth alot and can't run the engine with the cap off as it spurts out). After researching the problem on this site I have found a referance to a bit of plastic being on the end of the brass pipe in the reservoir. Mine hasn't got this and I was wondering if I just needed a new reservoir and not the pump as the cost for a new one is shocking!!! Also, will I be damaging the rack if I continue to drive it? Cheers Phil
