Is anyone able to help please? The engine light has come on (continuously) on my 59 plate diesel C30, it has also started to puff out black smoke when I put my foot down or go up a hill. My normal garage keeps brushing me off saying its nothing to worry about but the light comes back on. He recently replaced the turbo pipe and mentioned "injector fluff" but when I went back this week he said the fault reading was something to do with the fuel pump and he'd never seen that fault before and suggested I run it. I cant afford for my car to blow up and leave me without. Is anyone able to tell me what the fault is and what the solution is please, I live in S21 area but work in Nottingham, more than happy to come to wherever someone may be. I'm not at all knowledgeable about cars and I feel that I'm being fobbed off by a mechanic who possibly feels he is doing me a favour by not wracking up bills, but I need my car to run and be safe and reliable.

thanks in advance.

It will be cheaper in the long run to take it to the volvo dealer who has 16 years experience with this engine and it's faults ...
