Re: Vida CEM swapping

For a while now these pressure..there was just something that did not make sense. If the TCM commands 122 psi hold pressure, a static parameter...well that is too low, but according to the internet, at WOT at the clutches we should get up to 287 psi at 80 psi main line pressure So I guess here we ha...

Re: What did you do to your P2 Volvo today?

For some reason the transmission was not shifting well from a locked TC. It seems that when the TC is locked and a shift is upcoming, the transmission must gradually lower the SLU pressure to make a seamless shift into a new gear + unlocked TC. But somehow, for some reason(likely in the VB) the TC w...

Re: New scanner

I am currently leaning towards Thinkcar. It looks more capable and covers way more cars(since maybe tomorrow you will buy Toyota crown wagon etc...)it likely will be $200 more but looks more capable. Also Topdon is offering 15% for father's day now. If you can wait, "Amazon days" offer th...

Re: Dipstick pops out

Then that means you have a fault in the PCV system somewhere. Fix it fast or the next thing popping out will be a main seal.

Re: s60 2001 piston ring gap needed

Because there is none. It is my personal belief volvo never intended for these engines to get rehoned, rebored. No specs no nothing. The closest you can get to actual specs is from the 850 service manual https://www.volvoclub.org.uk/tech/service/850/2.4l_5_cyl_vin_55.pdf This service manual also inc...

Soon https://i.imgur.com/gYxCV5i.png https://i.imgur.com/mbchqIZ.png https://i.imgur.com/xJZ1udu.png Works with mongoose, but will likely work with DiCE as well. The Special Commands need quite some more work. The idea is to be able to implement custom dynamic records, more generic data etc. P3 is a...

Re: coolant in #3 cylinder

Both are equally as likely, I am speaking from experience. My case was head gasket, but quite a few people had their stock 210hp 2.5t crack liners.

Check BLOCK warpage and for cracks in liner.

Re: Vida CEM swapping

The tool uses the J2534 driver which implements an industry-standard API, in theory it should be universal for ALL scan tools, in practice, it depends on how the specific manufacturer implemented it. For instance are all J2534 drivers thread-safe? Do they all support protocol X, does either of these...

Re: How to ad bypass switch for cooling fan?

Yes in Colorado. With construction holdups and the hot temperatures ,Would like the fan on more. Volvo has designed it to come on when needed. It will run fine at 90c , then kick on at 105C in standstill traffic until the coolant temperature comes back to 90c. There is no reason to run it continuou...

Re: Steering - rebound/"bounce" at steering limits

This usually means the tyre is rubbing the inside fender. You must replace the limiters, though you will lose a bit of a turn.
