Anti Skid Service
After my shenannigans with the anti skid service message and having the code read by my mates local garage (0094-communication between control modules, communication problem with active on demand couplings) I decided to take my car (2004 V70 D5 AWD) to my nearest Volvo specialists Ron Sealey as Volvo wanted almost £100 minimum.
Mark at Ron Sealey reckons its either the switch on the rear diff for the AWD system or it needs a software update from volvo main dealer. Awaiting his response once he has confirmed the fault. |

Ok ive just had an update fron Ron Sealey, the AWD system is working so the rear diff sensor theory is out of the window. I have now been told that the car needs a software update from volvo and the will cure my anti skid service.
HAS ANYONE EXPERIENCED NEEDING A SOFTWARE UPDATE TO CURE THE ANTI SKID MESSAGE?? |

In your case it's even more likely, as clutch change includes disconnecting the driveshafts, and a local (non Volvo) garage may have been unaware they must use new driveshaft bolts on re-assembly. As for the software 'update'... I recently had a new steering angle sensor, under warranty, to cure an anti-skid service warning. I think I've since read somewhere on the forums (from Clan, I think) that a software patch may have been available that would have made the steering angle sensor less sensitive, and hence cleared the warning. |

Unfortunately the "Anti Skid Service required" message is a very non specific message for a whole host of problems with parts in the stability control system. They have cobbled so many parts into this system that even Volvo techs are just fishing in the dark and playing the expensive guessing game.
I changed my AWD clutch with Haldex DEM and sensors for a scrap one to cure the problem. According to Volvo this is impossible - but it works fine and the DTCs are gone. |

Thanks for the reply guys, I have spoken to the specialist Ron sealy who says he can go no further with the car and I am now taking it to Kirkcaldy Volvo which is not local to me as I am in Edinburgh but Ron Sealey apparantly has a relationship with them wherby he can talk to them.
Going to try a full software update |
