I'm looking at buying one of the dice/vida units but there seems to be a lot to choose from at varying prices, just wondered if there are any to go for or avoid.
Any recommendations welcome.

A little cheeky but I'm a new forum member who has a problem with my new v40. Thread - http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=208740

i've got a srs light on following me fannying about with the seats (i think).

Is anyone near Hinckley with diagnostics able to help me out?

Nothing manufacturer specific but I'm looking into the volvo gear (along with a GM and ford stuff as I get busier/richer )

I have Snap-On Diagnostics tho (Ethos) - and located on Sussex/Kent border.
