iCarsoft i906 Volvo reader

RayP · Nov 26th, 2014, 19:08

Hi all,
I have just purchased an iCarsoft i906 reader and on looking at all the readings it gives such as rail pressure, water temp being just two of many. I would like to know where can I find what my car should read, to enable me to find any problems.
The car I have is a 2003 v70 se diesel 2.4 auto.
Any help with correct readings much appreciated.

Post up the readings you have and under what conditions they were taken (stationary, at speed, from cold etc.)
and I'll dig out any I have.

rather than start a new thread about the icarsoft code reader, thought I would just add to this one.

Can anyone tell me is it worth buying this:

rather than the icarsoft 906?? or should I just stick with the 906 one?

Has anyone got one of these Gen 2 ones? Or are they just for the newer Volvo's?
If so where did you buy it from please?

I have a 2008 S60 D5

thanks Nick

I almost bought the i906 until Rich/RAW who is local, offered to read my codes regarding the problematic ABS pump / BCM. The original looks great value at £87...but that looks good value too.

It's a shame you can't buy a module and then buy additional software so (in my case) I could buy Volvo and Vauxhall and then chop and change as required.

after speaking with the supplier I ordered from, I decided to go for the more expensive one as it does a few more things. So a iCarsoft VOL-11 Gen 2 ordered.
I ordered from this company in the end as I read that there are lots of cheaper fakes around & this company states it is an official supplier. After ringing them I believe they are and sounded very knowledgeable on the scanner:

Yes that is a shame that you can't add on additional modules for other car marques.

What modules does the icarsoft VOL-11 Gen 2 communicate with & what year V70 Diesel is it compatible with ?

I think the icarsoft is ALL modules
