Thanks for the details George, I just got off the phone to these guys

The guy sounded really nice on the phone and helpful and they'll do the waterpump and coolent for an extra £110 ontop... 50miles each way but I know its in safe hands (i hope

)

oh and actually totally forgot to ask... WHAT does everyone think to the waterpump getting done at the same time... do they last forever or is this a wise move whilst the cambelts getting changed? I know there on the same loop if that changes anyones opinion

I've used Sheffield & Meredith for 9 years - always good, no problems, fair prices.

i also wouldnt mind knowing of a independent volvo person in derbyshire who can reprogram/make the fob work again on my 98 v40.

basically anyone with the hand held tool and the computer pincodes. apart from the main dealer. as i've tried them and they want way to much for my liking to look at it.

its the phase 1 so not the software needed phase 2, so should be easier. (hopefully)
