Just to give an update. I had to get a new key from Volvo. The garage changed the quote as my car already had digital TV so I wouldn’t need a new window they quoted me £843.82 inc. VAT for DAB to be fitted.

Hi bud, can’t DM as I don’t have enough posts yet but...
you know much about retro fitting upgrades? Just I’ve found the loom Under an rest for usb, bought the usb socket etc but obvs the sensus doesn’t know I have usb so no option. It doesn’t even have power to it as it won’t charge anything either. Asked the stealership if it needs upgrade etc and they just said never been asked and doubt it’s possible but I can’t see that been the case if the looms there On the other hand if your answer is no to the first question ignore the rest lol!

You have a 400-500kg heavier, bigger car with much more horsepower and it needs more Diesel? I wonder why...

Hi Nath, to be honest I'm just a bit of a geek but I love trying to work stuff like this out
I've just sold my P3 because of serious electrical problems, but I'll have a dig around anyway. What sort of car have you got? And what model year? Cheers, Paul Quote:

Hi I have 2010 v70 1.6 drive it very high spec. but I too would love to add the DAB module, as iv has seen plenty for sale. on eBay. Iv spoke to Volvo, but they are a bit vague and say they only offered DAB from 2013, and they have a different interface which doesn't make sense, to me, I'm a bit confused, as you say the module, will work with 2008 on. unless you're talking about models or year, I'm new to Volvo and have only had the car 3 months, its the newer shape car. is a P3? Do you know what exactly i should be asking Volvo? thanks, Mike.

Hi Mike,
Yes the newer shape from 2008 is known as a P3. I THINK you can add DAB to a 2010. It's included on the wiring diagrams and I've seen a few cars for sale online that say they have it. Most likely the dealer you spoke to was referring to the DAB upgrade as I think they only offered that from 2013 onwards. Probably the physical installation would be the same but you would need different software. After a bit of Googling, it looks like the DAB application for 2010MY is 31266811. ITP Remove may be 31382168, 31268617 or 30786292 but I'm not sure. A dealer should be able to find the correct part numbers for ITP remove and DABM and then download them. I don't think a dealer will install the hardware for you as they're usually reluctant to do anything that's not official, so you'd need to do that bit yourself first and then ask them to install the software. It may also be worth finding a decent indy specialist as they can be more willing to do stuff that's not quite "official". Your best bet is probably to get a cheap fibre optic Y cable like in my previous post and make up a power lead so you can connect the DAB module to the car, then ask the dealer to install the software. At this point the software should install and you'll have an extra reception option somewhere around the AM/FM ones (sorry I don't know exactly, I haven't been inside a pre-facelift P3). You won't get any DAB reception but you should at least be able to select it. If you get to that point then you can fix the module properly and sort out an aerial etc. for it and you're good to go. If it doesn't work (or the software isn't available) then you've only lost the cost of the module and the cable, and maybe some dealer labour. Does that help? Let me know if you want any more info Paul Quote:

DAB is sh1t round here anyway. Deadspots and momentary drop-outs in urban areas and lack of coverage in rural areas. I'd rather spend my time and money on doing an extra oil change every year or servicing the haldex. Or adding a revering camera, or a front camera or anything except wasting time on DAB.
Last time we were tootling around the Scottish borders the missus got sick of my iPod full of heavy rock and streamed Absolute 80s from her phone and it worked surprisingly well. Better than DAB that's for sure. |

Update - went in for Software - NO GO
So I put my car in after completing the Hardware side of this and got the Dealer INDY to download the software...
It wasn't having any of it... I fitted and wired in : 31409953 AC - which was from a 2015 Polestar V40 but the software wouldnt work... The MOST Off software worked but not the DAB software. Anyone know the correct module DAB Module for a 2013 V70?? There seems to be loads of them on eBay but Volvo typically won't give out the part number only a Kit which is number 32270870 I can currently see these on eBay: 31427225 A - says V60 V70 31667912 - says V60 V70 31409951 - says V70 XC60 (2012 to 2018) Need to keep going as still not there yet!
