    PWCars in Beaconsfield are worth a call, they did my V70 and I've had no problems.

    They have quoted 210 BHP, 460 n Torque £495, which I thought was a good price, Peter

    That's a shame mate, did they give you any idea why they couldn't be read or is it down to RICA ? What year is the D5 ?

    HLM run a S60 D5 demo car which is very good, might be worth a chat to them for some advice and costs, it might be cheaper and the ride home will be fun!!!
