Not sure if it's main Dealer only or not but I recently asked Rufe about buying a new key for mine, think it works out around £70 for the key cut and delivered. Not sure about the fob but you should be able to just buy another second hand one and then code it to the car.

As far as I'm aware you can't reprogramme a second hand fob, a new one is something ridiculous like £200 from a dealer. what you could do is find someone who is breaking one with 2 fobs and remove the entire system and put that in your car. It sounds a lot of work but it takes longer to get the panel under the dash back on than it does to swap the remote locking module.

You can program obd2 850 fobs but after that it's dealer iirc

You can code/program/pair secondhand fobs just do a search for the procedure. The key though is a stealer job....
Thanks for that blackdog, I didn't know for sure if you could do it or not on Ph1 V70's

On the 70s fobs aren't programmable like on 850s.
On 850s you just turn the ignition on and off 5 times then press the button on the new fob to mate it to the car.
Not possible on the newer cars... There are a few different part numbers for the fobs and you have to get matching ones and take them to your dealer, if you've lost the number of the fobs your car has or the new fobs you buy are not in their original case they are useless to you! (Unless you are lucky and buy the right fob by chance).
You need the correct diagnostic equipment to unlock the security on the fob module and then mate the new remote(s) to the car by pressing the lock/unlock button. Or take to Volvo to do it!
As 500tie says the easiest thing to do is just replace the Alarm Fob Module with one from a car with working fobs, cheap and easy!
The module sits behind the headlight switch and is a 10minute job to replace.

I am sure I mated a used fob to my good ladies old 99 V70.
It was a 2.5D so perhaps they are different.
I've tried on mine years ago and it didn't work
