found out through a co-operative dealer that it has no banjo bolts back & front caliper hence no torque measurement, it has straight hose couplings........if these need torque setting let me know the Volvo garage said tighten until it doesn't leak????

I don't think these need to be tighten overly hard. The filet is very fine so it won't leak or unscrew itself that easily. Too much torque may shear the filets, so just give it a medium torque similar to that on a spark plug that had it's washer already crushed.
