Your Driver Information Module (D.I.M.) has packed up I'm afraid, there is someone who can repair them, can't remember who though, or you can get a new one from Volve for getting on for £800.

theres a couple of lads on volvoforums.org.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=19 that do the repair, theres also a load on ebay for the service...

[QUOTE=V70 Graham;732588]There seems to be a few of these packing up recently ![/QUOTE] is it a major problem or is it just a matter of getting new clocks?
