Anyone know anywhere in the Barnsley/Sheffield area who can supply and fit a new release bearing and clutch to a P2 V70R-AWD for less than £750 AND do a good job/know what to do with AWD sytems?

Tim Williams in Leicester fitted my clutch at a very reasonable price and he is honest as well, he won't rip you off,

For £750!!!!? Sorry to tell you this but you`ll almost certainly need a dual mass flywheel as well.They are over £900 just to buy it from Volvo.Shop around and youll get it for less than that though.
Also dont forget the mechanic will need the `special tool` to fit the clutch properly.That is ONLY available from Volvo and is a lot of money.You will need a Volvo specialist at least.You cant leave an R` clutch to anybody.
Trust me,been there done that.
Good Luck
Steve
One more thing.Shop around for the slave cylinder and DMF but go to Volvo for the other two piece clutch.My mechanic refused to fit mine unless it came from Volvo after being supplied TWO wrong-uns by eurocarparts(cowboys)
I paid £286 + VAT for mine from AC in aberdeen.The slave should be about a ton and the DMF around £500.You`ll be paying well over a grand for the whole thing I`m afraid.

It seems Volvo have dropped the price for the DMF.I was quoted £750ish + VAT in October 10.
Good luck Gaz .Just think about how good the R will feel after the work is done.
Steve
Dont think they have...... Retail Price £772.80 / Our Price £656.88
Thats why I shop with mr simon and not mr sir arnold crook.
BTW I seen you a few weeks ago going up north anderson drive, nice car!!!
I also seen 2 P2 V70R's and a sonic blue S60R that same day, the S60 was just a few cars back from the V70 travling into aberdeen just out of foveran, I hope they spyied each other and had some fun
Never seen so much R's lol
Thanks

From a quote I sent out in October 2010:
Dual Mass Flywheel: [31259329]
Retail Price £737.90 / Our Price £627.22 inc vat
However, there are options on part number, possibly another part number is a different price, but I cant be certain without having reg numbers of the cars in question and this is the one I would guess it would be. Even so though Martyn is still right as my prices will be lower as I never charge retail to anyone buying via mail order, always large savings given where ever possible.

OK OK I stand corrected.As I said earlier I shopped around for the DMF and got one for £430 all in so that is a good saving.I only use Arnolds when I have to.That DMF is in the car now and working fine.Trips to London and Inverness in recent times prove that.
I think I saw you on the day in question.Deffo remember a saffron Volvo.Such a sweet,sweet colour.
I`ve also seen the sonic blue R and a black one too but they are sooooo rare.
Steve
Oh forgot to mention was into AC parts counter the other week speaking to a toyota guy about my dads hilux, and Mr Stevie never even took us on. Boy has he gone gray haired.....
Thanks
Martyn
That may have been it.Just flash me anyway next time and I`ll stop for a chat.
As for Stevie I havent known him that long,just the 2 years I`ve had the R but he does give me a lot of advice and he knows his stuff.
It must prey on his mind having to shock and surprise people all day when they phone up for a Volvo quote for a bulb and he has to tell them that it`ll be £125.
Spending your whole day p"""ing people off cant be easy.
Steve
OK dumb question, but what is this dual mass flywheel, and why does everyone seem to think I need a new one?

Gaz its part of your clutch assembly.It has 4 parts,The slave cylinder or release bearing,the dmf,the friction plate and the clutch cover.The dmf is becoming more and more common on modern cars rather than a single mass flywheel as it helps to make gear changes smoother.
Its almost certain that the only component in your assembly that`s failed is the slave cylinder.It virtually always is on an R but this is located within the gearbox along with the clutch and dmf.To change just the slave would be crazy as the clutch will undoubtably be worn and need changing.If the dmf has too much play this too will need changing as you wont get the full effect of a new clutch and it may wear out the new one quicker as well.If your car has done over 80k it will almost certainly need a new dmf.Sorry but thats the facts.Mine went at 104k when I had a squeaking from the engine and difficulty selecting reverse.Look on the bright side it`s one of the biggest bills you`ll get and if you do decide to sell a`new clutch and dmf`would be a great selling point.Those in the know would always be looking for recent work on the clutch,angle gear,fuel pumps,struts etc.
Wait for a diagnosis first but be prepared to buy one quickly if you need to.Do some digging at the motor factors ,get a price and be prepared for the worst.As I said earlier shop around for the dmf but get the clutch from Volvo (Rufe).

It was relayed to me that the DMF was "obliterated"...

I have the correct Volvo tools for doing your clutch but don't have time to do it but as already posted Barnsley Bill might be able to do it at his work as he also has the correct tools.

Blimey!!`Obliterated???¬Still,at least you werent too surprised after what I said eh?
Hopefully you did your homework on the DMF and managed to source one from somewhere.
R`s are great cars most of the time but when they go wrong its always the worst case scenario.
