I know it was a bit to pay out but thats what happens when you get blessed with an engineers brain and a lack of electronic know how I guess. "No moving parts there, how does that work then"

At least it will pay for itself the second time you use it....

Sods law at the moment the only issue I have is a very spongy R/H engine mount, no codes for that, just an awful resonating vibration.

For a late V70 an LED reader may be no good.

Check which engine management ECU you have (handbook).

The LED method may work if you have Fenix 5.2

Otherwise the other engine ECU's are OBDII compliant so an OBDII code reader will work.

If you want live data, I've had success with the Alex Peper Software from www.obd-2.com on my 2.4T (ME7) car.
You need an ISO interface cable.
