Hi

I have a 2007 C70 with a faulty folding roof. Does anyone know of an independent specialist in the South East who knows how to repair these & is going to be reasonable

Thanks

The roof stops part way through the cycle. The previous owner (a friend who bought the car new) had the problem & disconnected the switch a long time ago to prevent accidental operation. He gave up on it after repeated trips to the dealer fixed the problem for a while only for it then to fail part open, again.

Well, I took my C70 to Cayman Autos. They did a diagnosis & gave me a fixed price to fix the problem which was a faulty roof control module.

Cayman did the work quickly & effectively, & whilst it was expensive, the module is only available from Volvo & that was the bulk of the cost. It still cost far less than Volvo would have charged & Andy knows what he is doing.

They even washed my the car before I collected it

A great find & thanks to dme123 for the recommendation
