Thats interesting, as on my journey to Newcastle the light came on going up the motorway.
I then stopped at York where the local Volvo dealer had a look at it for me, he didn't have the parts needed, but he said he had done a software update & turned the light off.
I was then told to book it into my local Volvo dealer in Kent to have the pipework etc done.
