2001 Volvo S80 T6 - Tire size questions

The stock size in my S80 is 225/50/R17 but I'm in need of tires. I found a good deal on a set of 4 tires 225/45/R17, will this upset anything or affect anything in the cars system? Any lights? Warning?

Re: 2001 S80 T6 - P1238 & Engine System Service Required

The "Engine System Service Required" light turned out to be the broken brake pedal sensor on the brake canister, replaced it with a salvaged unit from todays junk run, cleared codes and thus far it hasn't returned after a test drive with several stops along the way.

Also, the auto dimmer mirror feature is broken on the car, I have the "lava lamp" effect going on. Would that make the engine system service light come on?

Re: 2001 S80 T6 - P1238 & Engine System Service Required

Matt, Thank you for the reply. I literally just got out of the junk yard and made out pretty good. I think. Two TCV Valves, the sensor on the brake canister, the broken seat belt plastic and other minor assorted plastics for $20 bucks. I'm going to hit Autozone later today for some replacement hoses...

Re: 2001 S80 T6 - P1238 & Engine System Service Required

I should mention, the auto dim feature on the rear view mirror is broken thus my rear view mirror is all black from the liquid. Also there was a black cylindrical sensor off the brake canister with a connection to it. The connector is broken off. The car however is running well, no limp mode, good p...

2001 S80 T6 - P1238 & Engine System Service Required

So my 2001 T6 is showing "Engine System Service Required" and the orange exclamation point. I decided to scan it with my generic scanner and the only code was P1238 but no "Check Engine Light" was illuminated. I inspected the lines to the Turbo Control Valve and they look old but...

Re: 2001 S80 T6 with codes and transmission issues...

OK so here is whats been going on. I decided to send my ECM to XeMODeX for a software transfer to a good ECM. Got it back and installed it tonight. Initially it ran well and then once the car warmed up it began to stumble, buck, and run rough again, and finally just shut off. It stumbles to the poin...

Re: 2001 S80 T6 with codes and transmission issues...

Ok so we swapped the Rear Driverside O2 sensor and moved it over to the rear Passenger side slot. The car continues to miss, and now the driverside cat got red hot. So far no CEL or trouble codes...
