Hmmm...the incredibly rare V8 S70...I've heard of these but never seen one....

I think your reader software is either FUBAR or mapped to a 1961 Austin HEALEY Sprite

Your first code 1171 is long term fuel trim, and the second I think is CVVT function.

Google "Pxxx Volvo" to confirm...often you get led to a thread here.

Yeah the description of the code never matches, always have to google what it means. Gonna try and update the software.

And there's the fix for that. Sometimes the solenoid is just sludged up.

Yupp thanks guys. I changed it on the white one. Bought a couple from the junk yard but they were all crap. Went to the dealer and paid $$$ but it worked.

what is a "t5 network car"?

Updated my code reader with new software and DTC library but I still get these weird descriptions of the code. The reader is a CEN-TECH 60694 and as far as I know it is just a rebranded AUTEL AL519.
Does anyone else here use this reader and does it work for you?
