I'm between tavistock and okehampton and have a sick C30. "anti skid service required" comes up on start up , can be cleared with a quick on off and drives fine but comes on again when the car is left to idle at standstill.

I looked at the map service and see i need to register a paid account ? With Volvo charging £92 inc vat to read a code on an old 2009 1.6 d car it might be cheaper to buy the VIDA / DICe s/w from Fleabay etc hence is there anywhere else offering a diagnostic reading service local or supplying the kit to read these faults codes.

Thanks Ross

Hey Volvo fans,

I have a lovely C30, but with the dreaded Alarm System Requred Message. I've changed the battery inside the siren unit, but message stayed. Interesting is that the alarm actually sounds (tested by unlocking with emergency key and opening door or by sitting inside and activating the mass motion sensor). Before getting a new siren unit, I was wondering if someone in the Manchester area would be willing to hook up their Vida and confirm that the SCM is bad.

I'd rather buy a volvo enthusiast a few cans, than diagnose it at a dealership...

Hi, I've got a Volvo V40 2003 with SRS warning light on and need to get it checked and cleared for Mot. I think it is just the wiring under one of the seats which has triggered it. Is anyone around in the Wigan / Bolton / Preston area who could assist? Please drop me a PM if you can, cheers, Aaron

Where is this map? The one at the beginning of this thread is inoperative. I'm looking for someone with VIDA installation skills in the Dorset/Hants area and once they can help me get my VIDA/DiCE up and running, I'll want to also go on the map. But where is it?

That's the adjustable suspension system and the fault may be in one of the special shock absorbers. Not cheap if one's failed.

I'm still looking for this VIDA map to find a Dorset/Hants VIDA owner who can assist me.
