a new engine is only obtainable from the car manufacturer (volvo use renault engines in their vehicles) check prices from both (volvo will proberly put mark up on renault price) my opinion is that you will pay over the top for original engine several multi national companies sell remanufactured engines with guarantee equal to manufacturers at more realistic price and may even be supplied as o equ

Search for a reconditioned/re-manufactured engine from a reputable firm, they're usually as good as if not better than the original, complete with warranty. The only source for a brand-new engine will be Volvo and you'll pay a fortune. Renault's engine, by the way, is often used by other manufacturers.

1st step, speak to Renault and Volvo to get an idea of cost through them, they should quote with labour time too.
Then look through a mag like autotrader and exchange and mart, in the back they will have scrappers and re conditioners in the back. contact one of these and get a price. you should find nothing wrong with a reconditioned unit, and dont forget to ask them the mileage this engine has covered.
They should also be able to fit this for you in there workshop so get a price. once you've sussed out where your going DON'T FORGET to register the new engine number etc with the d.v.l.a for the v5 doc's etc.

Have a good look on ebay, there are loads of scrappers that sell on the net.

you will need whats called an "engine call". take it out, in a wooded area preferably, and blow into it. you wont be able to hear the sound, as it emits a frequency only detectable by engines. wait a few minutes, and a few should come running. carefull though, i think its their mating season.
