Not so easy for your parking sensor problem though.
Your car has 20+ modules so if your fault isn't engine, abs, transmission or srs, you'll need something more sophisticated than Torque Pro. For running issues though, it's brilliant for the money.

Hi, I have read a few of your posts and you seem to know your stuff when it comes to engine faults. I have recently bought my XC90 (diesel) and tonight my partner has driven to Newcastle, she phoned to say that the car has come up with a service error message and will only do about 50mph. Will it be ok to drive back with it like that (55 miles)? I think I will have to take it to a garage to read the fault codes as I have no real machanical skills!! It has the 12 month warranty but bet what ever is wrong will not be covered! Your advice would be much appreciated.
