A few members asked clarification of what this kit can be used for. See below:

The kit I am selling is a plug & play kit, you get everything needed to be able to run diagnostics on your volvo. The cost of such diagnostic is £68+VAT in the dealership.

There are a multitude of things you can use this kit for. To name a few:
- service reminder indicator reset - this is useful if you do your own servicing
- vehicle diagnostic and fault tracing (DTC code) - this where the kit's true power lies. It allows you to read the detailed (volvo specific codes) from your car. Most code readers can read the codes but will give a generic code that won't be of much use. Vida also gives you a brief explanation of what the code means, where possible it will run more detailed test. It will tell you how many time the error occurred, operational parameters snapshot,etc
- clear DTC codes
- part information - this is again a very good and useful feature where you can browse parts broken down in category. Once the vehicle has been read by the tool it will only list parts specific to your car. Exploded views will aid identifying the part your need or are looking for. It also provides disassembly and assembly information, including torque settings, etc
- change car settings (model dependant)
- allows software upgrade (you need an active subscription to be able to use this feature - not included in the sale).

Above I have tried to list the main benefits of the tool. You will receive a quick guide on how to connect the unit to your car and start reading the codes. I'm addition I am including a detailed VIDA user guide in electronic format.

Now to tell you a bit about the tablet: it is a Linx 10 tablet running Windows 10 Pro fully activated and includes all the latest Windows updates. 32GB storage, 2GB RAM. Linx tablet are very well made an good quality. Although I have listed these as vida tablets there is nothing stopping you from using the tablet for other purposes. If you look only many solutions available for sale have limitations: they either use virtual machine running on Windows or lock the laptop down to VIDA only saying don't connect it to WiFi or update Windows etc. My kit does not have any of those limitations.

It comes with a detachable keyboard dock so you have the option to use it as a laptop or a tablet. In my opinion it's much better than a laptop. Has all the features of a laptop, giving you about 8+ hour of use time as it does not have moving parts. No charger, but includes all the cables. You can use a USB phone charger be it an apple or android phone charger or a generic one.

You can expand storage by microSD card up to 256GB.

Sorry, this turned out to be a bit long winded. I have sold a significant number of units and have asked for buyer's feedback, all available on volvoforums, I have this listed in multiple categories. Feel free to check feedbacks.

Price is £239 includes UPS postage to mainland UK, I also sold units that went to Sweden, Austria, Switzerland, so postage within EU is not a problem but will cost a bit more.

Hello, I have read through your posts but wanted to clarify something, I have a 2003 S60 T5, Would i be able to change features on this ? But more importantly I have the SRS Airbag service warning because i unplugged my CCU without disconnecting the battery would this allow me to clear the code ? I also see that you are based in Newbury, would there be any price difference if i came to collect it ? Cheers
