It reads every system and has 9 service functions on petrol models from 2001 and OBD2 diesels from 2004. It costs €194.95.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe dates matter\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the first thing to check. On petrol, coverage starts in 2001. On diesel, it starts in 2004, when Volvo diesels moved to full OBD2. A 2003 V70 D5, for example, isn't covered. If your car sits right on that line, ask us first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat it does on a Volvo\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt reads and clears faults on the engine, transmission, ABS, airbag, climate control, body and other control units, with live parameters while the engine is running. For servicing: service reminder reset, electronic parking brake for rear pad changes, particulate filter regeneration, battery registration, steering angle, throttle, injectors, ABS bleeding and TPMS.

That's nearly always the cause.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere the VOL V2.0 falls short\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt isn't bi-directional: it doesn't activate components one by one. iCarsoft doesn't give details of plug-in hybrid coverage, so if yours is one, send us the VIN.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVOL V2.0 or VOL V1.0\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/icarsoft-vol-v1-diagnostic-tool-volvo-saab\"\u003eVOL V1.0\u003c\/a\u003e covers the same years for €60 less and reads the engine, gearbox, ABS and airbag, but only does oil and steering angle.
