No its narrower ,its like a diesel fuel filter on an old transit.
dont know what a transit filter looks like lol, but is it more square than that one, instead of cylindrical?
*keeps trying* lol
like this one then?
(still a carbon filter)
Its the size width and lenght of two coffee(or tea) mugs on top of each other!
hmm, you got me thinking now? lol
only other thing i can think of is the crank breather (oil trap)
this?

Left as in drivers side as your looking at it i:e OFF SIDE or left as in the left of the car i:e NEAR SIDE or commonly known as the passenger side
the only thing that should be hanging that low at the front is as mentioned b4 its the evap or carbon canister sits on a bracket just slightly away from the air dam and fluid cooling pipes (not radiator) i think their turbo oil cooler related

Deffo sounds like the carbon filter however have you got any wires or pipes coming outOriginally Posted by Col44
Possibly it could be part of a third party alarm immobiliser installation i:e could be an additional siren
Has the car got additional alarms fitted or just the standard volvo stuff
Is the car explod as it could be somthing they forgot to remove when it was decomed from the fleet i:e power supply for strobes or air horns
Mmmmm puzzled as well just looked under my car and there is nothing on the off side that hangs that low just behind the bumper
Any chance of posting a couple of pics keep em below 97 kb so nothing hi res
Cheers

Cheers Guys,i'll get a photo up later.
More pressing problem just arose,rear n/s caliper is seizing up. Took the family out for 1st wee shot 2 miles later squeeling started gets out the disc is roasting. Got it home ,the caliper frees off with a tap or two with a hammer then it get really hard again to turn disc once pedal 's pressed again.
I'm away to do a search on here
That is the carbon canister m8 for the exhaust gas recirculation system.Originally Posted by Col44

Cheers Lee , is it a servicable item, it looks a bit worse for ware?
If thats on the drivers side it is (and certainly looks like..) the air con filter drier..it is tatty because it can freeze up and often is covered in condensation thats why its rusty.
Don't try to remove!
Just to be certain, has it got two firm rubber pipes connected to the top with a large nut?
If you run the air con you should notice a change in temperature on the filter.b

WARNING! Some of the above may be my unbiased opinion, sarcasm, or just total bo****ks.
I agree with audimadmike looks very much like the drier unit it should freeze up pretty quick with the air con on.
OK maybe i was wrong (difficult to work out from piccy), but the easiest way to know is give it a tap! If it sounds like its full of granules then it is Carbon canister. Do not replace this..... as the saying goes..'IF IT AINT BROKE..DONT FIX IT'. Else trying to remove it could do damage. I have never heard of them being replaced anyway....consult main agent if not sure. Advice is free after allOriginally Posted by audimadmike

Left of car as in looking from the front i:e off side or drivers side
Having recently seen one of these off a car i can confirm it is the air con gas bottle / condensing unit
