Xc90 no swirl flap help
Hi all,
Ive just bought a volvo xc90 2008 d5. Upon driving it home it was good. I took it out yesterday and found an engine system service notice (yellow triangle). Ive plugged it into vida to find no major issues just old faults in the history. There is one showing up once reset stating air quality sensor.. also on engine inspection i noticed an oil leak from the rocker cover. I have decided to first replace the gasket and seals. Now here is the issue. Upon taking the rocker cover off ive found the swirl flaps missing!!! Im wondering can i delete the swirl flap, leave it out, or buy the kit? Any help will do... Oh. The code from pressing the A button on the dash is 042. |

It could be that it has had a software delete,and flaps removed. You would get a fault code otherwise I would suspect.
If the car is okay then let it develop. Mike

Many thanks for the reply.. would this allow limp mode to activate? Also what are other implications?
Im installing a new swirl flap on saturday. Is it "plug and play" or do i need to do something on vida? Thanks |

All in it was £90.. all installed now. Got it on vida and done some calibrations. Only issue im having now is to perform a forced regen. When i start the regen it states aborted.
Anyone know what to do to start a forced regen |

If you have any fault codes logged, you need to fix the faults first
