Had this with a T5 i had and it was the heater rad< was about £80.00 from car euro parts, fitted it myself but took about 4 hours and on the Volvo it was located behind the stereo, so very fiddly, but my mate had the same problem on his vw and it was a whole dash out job....not sure on the 7 tho .....dabsy is probably your man for where and how to get to it..... but def sounds like a heater rad....Also if it is dont buy 2nd hand etc just get a new one as a lot of hassle to get in and out....
