2013 XC70 rear spring variant code help Topic is solved

Post by **FireFox31** » 01 Sep 2024, 12:31

Could someone with an active VIDA subscription help look up my car's suspension specs based on VIN number? It's for a P3 (sorry to post in P80) so I have the Product ID Plate codes but parts websites only list "variant codes". I'd ask a dealership but they're closed and I need to buy new springs during the Labor Day sale before they'll open back up. Thanks for your help.

I was able to call the dealership on Labor Day and get the info I needed. From the Product ID plate, rear springs marked 74 are variant code 7829, part number 31300138. This is relevant to P3 2013 XC70 and not P80. Mods could move this thread to that forum. Thanks.

Finding info for P3's is a nightmare as I found trying to source parts for the 2013 XC60. Even trying to find parts for the 02 XC70 is hard. 6 different throttle bodies listed, fortunately 3 are for NA, but the one for this car turned out to be a saga as can be seen on my thread in the P2 forum. Even the cam and crank sensors are not clear.

Well done getting this figured out!

Neil.

I also thought to email FCP support. They got back to me on the next business day with accurate info. They must have active VIDA or some other trick. They did offer the springs I needed, but I got a much better deal on holiday sale at a local dealership.
