IS IT POSSIBLE TO SWITCH OFF THE SERVICE LIGHT WITHOUT TAKING TO A DEALER?

pike01

on 2000 and later models you can do the following

answer 1: 1. Turn the key to the 1st position.
2. Hold the trip button down.
3. Then turn the key to the 2nd position.
4. Light will begin to flash and about the 3rd time, release the trip button.
5. Start the car to make sure the light is off.

but before that its a trip to the garage

see the thread on www.vvspy.com in the x40 section, page 2

Paul, I think we have one in the the Club's tools for hire. The request form is on the reverse of the registration form. If you don't have one handy give John Smith an e-mail and he will send you one. The Tool Hire chappy is John Hunt who lives in East Sussex. It might be worth giving him a ring first to see if it is available. His number is in the Driver.

All the best, Peter

evenin all

dont know if any of you are still looking for one of these but if you go to www.draper.co.uk and then shop-online and then search for volvo you will find one, for £209.95.

this, believe it or not was in a flyer that the local off licence dropped in with my beer !!!

cheers
