Battery is dead on the C70 after being stored for a month in the garage with roof down

Questions - where can I get the radio code from!!?
Also, are there any pre alarms on the convertible that may have caused the battery to drain, i.e. do the lights flash before sounding the alarm if a spider entered the car etc etc

Hate to say it but I don't know but I would be interested to know because the same thing happened to my S70.

In respect of the spiders, I wouldn't be too worried they can't drive, they were probably after your stereo.

Hope its not the battery as halfrauds will skin you about 100 quid for 1.

Anyone who pay's £100 is a mug IMO.

Go to any half decent motor factors GSF etc

or try your dealer. If your ever going to consider paying £100 for a halfords battery, at least try your volvo dealer who will offer a 3 year warranty and will be a fair bit cheaper than that too, on a genuine part. (and ive never had one back under warranty, the volvo batterys certainly last a long time)
