Very interesting video Mike, I will be ordering vida dice and doing this test and others although i am certain my ETM is bad. Looking into getting xemodex also found sellers on ebay advertising refurbished ETM. Not sure what direction to go with a new unit your advice would be helpful.
If you choose the BBA option or XeModex option both of them will supply you with the same unit you gave them, refurbished to their standards. XeModex's delivery options are limited and expensive. If I had a 2001 turbo I would be getting Vida to look at programming of your own unit then see if Volvo's solution will match according to the info here on this vid. I've purchased at least 6 or 7 units for customers from Volvo since 2015 and each one had the same software level to suit P2 T5 or 2.4T. Great thing about the Volvo unit is the contactless sensor now standard. I'm pretty certain BBA offer the same contactless rebuild. XeModex's warranty is for life on the vehicle you've specified.
@@precopster1 Hi Mike, I found the Xemodex unit on ebay the seller told me its from a working volvo and 6&7 vin numbers match my cars . You are right I will also get Vida and see if I can program the firmware should it come to it. My ETM is the Yellow sticker. Just curious as to the lifetime of Xemodex contact less TPS, as I am leaning in that direction. I am also going to check on BBA option not sure if they are also contact less, did not see it on the post will contact seller.. These Volvo cars area always keeping owners on their toes. Thank you for your advice Mike much appreciated.
@@AlanMedina314 VIN has nothing to do with the programming level. You can have 2 cars with a VIN number variation of only 1 digit at the end of the number. Depends on if car has been back to dealer for FW upgrades or not and which year firmware was fitted.
@@precopster1 My confusion came from the seller's nothing that comparability had to do with 6&7 digits of VIN number in my case 61 all that told me was engine number. A variation of single number did not know that. My best bes is to wait till vida can show me the firmware installed. I have no idea if it's been updated. Thank you for helping me in my ignorance.
Hello, i have the same problem and i buy a new throttle body for my Volvo v70 AWD- Turbo, i have VIDA All in One. So, Is there any option to "teach" the new throttle to work fine, cause i have a problem, when i instant press my pedal and the car is "interrupts" for a sec?
