RoyMacDonald do us a favour and dont spread incorrect info to fellow members, we come here to seek help and not to obtain incorrect info.

When did I say canbus was a security feature?
My understanding is it's the log of serial no's the car holds that is the security feature and how Volvo deals with the car having a wrong no if the part was not deactivated from the donor car. I may well be wrong I'm only going by what I've read on the forum.
