V60 Heater Blower

[edmond]

Has anybody else found it impossible to find a replacement fan heater blower for their V60? All after market retailers are awash with heater blowers for left hand drive vehicles but none can source one for right hand drive. Volvo are willing to ask for £450 plus VAT for one, think I'll pass on that one, any help will be much appreciated, thank you

I had no problems for my 2012 S60 - the part was £370 from a dealer fitted by a small trustworthy garage. It does mean disassembly of the dash so very labour intensive - it cost me £763 all in compared to £1400 at a main dealer...

I should say I had no problems finding the actual part but finding a garage to do the work was extremely difficult due to the nature of the job, even a fairly local to you official Volvo workshop weren't interested... Has your bearing failed?
