It was the crank that was off somehow. I took the belt off and just manually lined up the 2 cam sprockets and the crank. Its been like 2 days and now errors or pending errors. thanks everyone!

I have a 2002 S60 and am seeing this code after doing my timing belt. DO I need to follow the same procedure you guys list here? is my VVT the same?

i'm sure it has to do with me doing the timing belt. I should have marked the belt before taking it off, I just went with the factory marks.

Part coming in today, it looks like from a post I found on here I can change the regulator in place without having to pull the alternator.

I ordered the rebuilt Bosch made in Mexico for a 2002 XC70 from FCP afew years ago and it was fine. went ahe...

I guess my question is should I just order a known Bosch alternator and return the other one I got ?

I added some more to my post above please re- read I didn't drop the entire subframe, just the Driver front corner. the others I loosened. Sorry should have clarified. The Rostra solenoids have worked like a champ though! I wonder if the alternator could be causing my CANBUS issues as well? And I m...

Sigh. That's what I was afraid of. Issue is I already sent my core in. Could I just buy a Bosch regulator to put on it?
