I don't know if it can be done by yourself. Seems to be some regulations in the USA about who can perform this operation. The last time I had it done at a garage it was about $70 USD. No need to have it done at the Volvo dealer. Any garage can do it.

[right][snapback]11622[/snapback][/right] Plenty of advice can be found here:- http://www.volvot5.co.uk/forums/index.php? From what I've heard it costs between £40.00 - £70.00 depending on where you go to get it done. |
