Required a manual hit to activate but smooth replacement of SA V+ at least.
Few points:
1. Tivo remote control not controlling volume, installer was told to state press TV and Clear button together until 2 green flashes are seen on the remote, then press 0999 and then keep pressing the channel up button. This tells the Tivo to request TV settings apparently and can take up to 2 hours so patiently waiting to see when I can control volume. Take it there is no other way, if yes please post details, I have a Sony KDL40HX803 TV

Almost right - but when you hold the channel up button you have to hold it till the TV shuts itself off - then turn it back on with the Tivo ON button, try your sound and mute and if that works press OK.
It only takes a few seconds. If that doesn't work your make may not be in. It worked with both my TV's
Otherwise there is another thread of mine where someone has given the link to the TiVo remote codes to try. I did it that way too, and took about 4 tries to find the code that worked. Your way is easier if done right
