Re: Vida CEM swapping
Yes there are no open source sbls yet. Especially for the cem. As for displays, any spi or i2c display will suffice. The cheapest will do. Since teensy can be programmed with Arduino sdk this video is excellent https://youtu.be/VPGRqML_v0w?si=ohMnbt-D2ZDDm_LA For simple pin cracking, very little log...

Re: ECM auto to manual conversion
Since these are the pre-facelift ECMs perhaps a used ECM from a manual B5244t(same partnumber and hopefully software updates so that the CAN matrix is the same). Then it needs an immo clone and you will be set.

Why did volvo remove the variable intake manifold?
For a while now I have studied why the P2 platform NA engines had this weird torque dip around 2000-3000rpm. I started to speculate it's either something related to emissions and is related to valve overlap between intake or exhaust(this cannot be cured without a different exhaust) OR it had to do w...

Re: ECM auto to manual conversion
I am no master, but rkam is. I have only managed to reverse engineer some parts of the Denso software(though his is ME7 which I have no experience with). And even with all experience I have, I am still learning from rkam from things he has said in the very past which I understand only now. My observ...

Re: 2005 Volvo s60 Trans fluid in the Coolant
Not just possible, but highly likely as well. This is what happened to mine https://imgur.com/mVgRswM How it works. During startup, the transmission starts generating pressure before the coolant system has had time to pressurize(34 psi usually) which allows then easy way for atf to get into coolant....

Re: Water in Transmission
It is probably dead, but for other reasons. The glycol in antifreeze decimates clutch packs, they have likely clogged the filter leading to low oil pressure and thus no moving car. In this case, a double whammy as you both had destroyed clutch packs and a clogged oil filter. I had the same happen to...

Re: Water in Transmission
Absolutely not, you have a mechanical issue now. No way but a rebuild or used gearbox, of course used means you never know what condition it truly is in. If it is a clogged filter, after it sits for a few days , it *may* drive for just a bit before the pump sucks up the gunk and it clogs up the filt...

Re: Water in Transmission
Something tells me the V50 construction is different than the P2. No matter how or where I dont think you can simply drop the AW55 without dropping the subframe, and the engine and tranny are all held by mounts ON the subframe. Specifically for AW55, it has a aluminum frame which is bolted to the AW...

Re: Water in Transmission
"it *may* drive for just a bit before the pump sucks up the gunk and it clogs up the filter. Actually you can also verify this if you pull out the return like of the oil and nothing comes out whilst the car is running" I haven't tried pulling the return yet, but last night after it sat fo...

Re: Water in Transmission
It is, by disassembling half the internals of the AW55. The filter filters your oil, you cannot see the debris. The only way you can is by filling up the oil return line with diesel and using an air compressor to blow out the sludge/debris backwards. Of course you don't want that gunk backing up ins...
