Re: PCV Write-up for 1999+ Volvo 5-cylinder

I am doing my PCV right now and struggling with taking the manifold out. To get the inlet manifold off simply lift it up to clear the lower stubs then push the PCV top hose through the pipes and the fuel rail through the inlet feed pipes, put it to one side as you now have access to the PCV, time ta...

Re: 1999 v70: Erratic clicking sound, moving indicator key p

-Update on the situation. There was a hick-up during ETM reload with Henry. Now the dice has to travel back to seller. Without dice, the only choice left is Xemodex. I am just so curious about the unit. So, before it will be sent to xemodex, I disconnected the battery from the car, and connect direc...

I was able to have Dice/Vida running after long hours struggling with the installation.

Re: 1999 v70: Erratic clicking sound, moving indicator key p

Sorry Mike, probably I did not pick up the whole idea. and I assumed from this statement that with Dice alone (without Vida) was a sufficient tool to fix ETM. For this you don't need Vida however the Dice must be recognised in Device Manager. So, I installed Dice alone on another computer since the ...

Mike, I just got a response from Henry. I will join Skype and prepare my laptop today.

I have not use Vida yet because my Vida was on another computer which I thought that they can not communicate, can they?

Re: 1999 v70: Erratic clicking sound, moving indicator key p

I am kind of confused now. For ETM reload, do I need Vida too? or just Dice is enough. If they both are needed, I have to go back and wrestling with the installation because they are not connected and my virtual machine started to be cranky now. Today I tried to get the ECM number in case Mr. Double...

Re: 1999 v70: Erratic clicking sound, moving indicator key p

I just got the car back (limped mode). Finally, the shop gave up and told me to get a correct year, new throttle body. Mike, I was able to install Dice and communicated with the car. I have to ask, considering my skill and the mistake earlier, what would be my best (safe) option next. ? 1. Try to re...

Re: 1999 v70: Erratic clicking sound, moving indicator key p

Thank you for your warning. Mike.

I have not gotten the car back yet. The shop wants to keep the car for another day. I wish I had another Volvo to connect.

Re: 1999 v70: Erratic clicking sound, moving indicator key p

The shop called and said I needed a new battery. I wonder If I electrocute it to dead. Is there such a thing? (The battery has not shown any problem sign before, however it's 4 years old battery). I said yes to them. The shop does not have Vida/dice. They will check if they can do anything when I as...
