2003 V40 1.9D Retro Fit Cruise Control software question.
Hi
I have a 2003 V40 1.9D which I want to retrofit cruise control to. I know everything I need to complete it but Volvo say they don't do the ECU update anymore. My question is, can I buy software that will allow me to connect to my cars ECU and enable it or does the ECU literally need a software upgrade? If it's just enabling it on software can you please advise me where to buy the software and what connector I need to connect my car to pc. Cheers guys. |
ECU software upgrades can only be done by Volvo or independents who have purchased the licence from Volvo.
Do a search on here as there have been many threads on the subject of retro fitting cruise. IIRC the diesel cars are more involved than petrols and may need the ECU from a car that already had cruise fitted. Not 100% sure on this, but a search on here will find the answer. |

If you really do need cruise control, it might be cheaper to sell the car and buy one that already has it fitted.

I would second the ecu and lock set:thumbs_up:

It's going to cost a lot more than 70 or 80 quid in parts and labour. Locating the correct ECU will not be easy, as there are not many diesels with cruise control in the scrap yard. Not sure if the type of fog and front lights is an issue in used ECU terms.
