and then take it from there, to check the timing is it just a case of taking it to a garage that has the program for a volvo tdi and pluging the car in. or can it only be done by checking the timing marks.. thanks |

Practical experience shows this is not the case, typical senario is that the timing belts have been changed but dynamic timing has not been done due to lack of equipment or ability. Customer then complains of smoke & or poor performance there is no MIL lamp on. Completing the dynamic timing cures the problem. Note that the Volvo scan tool requires that to do the dynamic timing there must be no DTC's in the module, if the MIL lamp was on for a timing problem, and it will only be on if there are DTC's, then you could never put the timing right.
