Default Access to Vida Dice/Vdash Super j2534

Hi Guys,

The What

I need to meet with someone who's got the cube (dice) or super j2534 and vida/vdash (i can bring my laptop with vdash on it)

The Why

Volvo dealers fleeced me today nearly £200 for putting 800g of refrigerant into system which was fine less than 21 day ago.
because despite reading everywhere that s60 post 2015 are immune to evap issues I have the classic bust evaporator symptoms on mine.
Hot on drivers side, ambient at best on left hand side.
All knob twisting sequences, ac/c off, on recirculation, i could find and cook up myself i tried,
but
I'll try anything.

The More

I have borrowed a Snap-On ethos edge which didn't have problems establishing that something is wrong,
but kept failing to calibrate the damper motors.

Please get in touch if you're in West Yorkshire, anything further will be very uncomfortable travel for myself.

No problem paying for time andor fuel.
Can't face 2k evap exchange job.

Hi,

I wonder if someone can point me to a uk supplier of vida dice at all please.

I was pointed towards the Swedespeed forum, to a chap called Matt Leavesley, but the facebook link on there is coming up as disconnected. They have a thing called Vida2go on there, which is essentially a bootable ssd with vida pre-installed. Does anything like it exist over here at all?.

I am getting the icarsoft as a handheld scanner, but I want Vida for the manuals and the ability to configure/update systems on the car.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Phil

Hi,

Can this Vida software be used to reset SRS warning light? (caused by low battery voltage)

Thanks.

Yes Vida will clear the SRS warning light if there is no fault present, there are also other code readers like iCarsoft that will reset the code for you
