Citation help! Citing a multi-volume work using author-date system.

Sorry, the only citation problem I have any experience in is parking citations. My daughter had a problem this summer understanding "NO PARKING" signs.
Yes! I've tried there and MANY others. Nowhere specifies how to cite this in-text according to the author date system and specify a volume (or part or section); they all assume it will have a separate date and only include information on how to put it on a final reference list.
My money is on Jonathan to know the answer.
Sorry, I wish I could help, but I don't really know the in-line citation system and wouldn't want to steer you wrong by guessing at a solution.
That would work if I wasn't using author-date, but writing "(Moulton 4: 27)" according to the MHRA version would indicate page 27 in a book by Moulton written in the year 4! I'm not yet ready to accept that I need to alter the style I've used consistently over 172 painful pages for the sake of one reference. But thank you anyway! And who's Heidi?
I've never had to cite in MHRA (I've used APA and AMA). I did find this: http://www.essaycoursework.com/howtow...See page 5 - it says to separate the volume number with a comma.
Sorry, Hannah, I was in a hurry and got your name wrong. Also sorry I didn't find the correct citation style for you.
Amy - Thanks! It's a slightly different style to the one I've been using, but I don't think incorporating that solution is going to cause any issues. And am fed up of looking now! Jammies - Thanks anyway!
All input much appreciated!

Just in case this isn't clear, a sample reference from a normal book looks like this: (Miller 2007: 56). No reference guide I can find can tell me how/where to include a volume/book number. Can anyone help?!
