How to scrap a ETM!

👋 Does the s4 have a loose metal part inside? Or is mine broken Thanks!!

Thanks for the video , plz I need your help

Hi, thanks for sharing such an informative video. Where would be the best place to buy Vida? Thanks.

Can I have this document please?

Can you reupload this video and what kind of tools you used to open thanks 💞

Hello, I plan on replacing my throttle body for my 2001 Volvo S60 with a refurbished one I bought on Ebay. After installing the new one, is it safe to drive the car to a mechanic to reprogram for me? Thanks.

Hi. I had a lot of problems with the automatic transmission in my car. I changed the bushings of the solenoids. it was very nice car. However, a new problem has arisen. Except for shifting to D position and knocking.. there are no errors left. What do you recommend ? These are the symptoms. only when getting to the first D position.

Can you help me with undoing that electrical connector?

Hey guys... I replaced the valve body on a 07' XC90. Now the vehicle has no reverse. Couple of threads I read online say a seal may have been damages upon installation but doesn't stay which seal. Was wondering if you might be able to point me in the right direction. Thanks.

I got the gaskets from CT Powertrain website www.ctpowertrain.com/

Hi....can you inform for me,where I get the gasket set for AW-55 50SN body valve ?

actually on diesel models you dont need to take the alternator out to replace the regulator. with small screwdriver all is doable. Altough my regualtor looks a little bit different on 1997 s70.

I have a Volvo S80, but there is a defect in the throttle, I think, there is instability of the engine in the number of revs of the engine, is this from the throttle or not

Thanks, my etm makes a really loud high pitched noise, usually for a few seconds but ive had it not stop on other times, whats the reason for it not powering down?.

If you are watching this video for steps to replace the non-contact throttle position sensor, you need to remove the other side. The side without the access port.

I just fitted a new Volvo 36050563 throttle body to my 2001 S60--I have no method of checking or programming it. I watched this video and fitted the new throttle body just as he did and it works fine-the car runs and drives at least as well as it used to. The new throttle body was labeled :Made in Sweden and dated 52 2017.

Hello, i have the same problem and i buy a new throttle body for my Volvo v70 AWD- Turbo, i have VIDA All in One. So, Is there any option to "teach" the new throttle to work fine, cause i have a problem, when i instant press my pedal and the car is "interrupts" for a sec?

Very interesting video Mike, I will be ordering vida dice and doing this test and others although i am certain my ETM is bad. Looking into getting xemodex also found sellers on ebay advertising refurbished ETM. Not sure what direction to go with a new unit your advice would be helpful.

Hi thanks for the video, will this display the real Volvo codes , not just the PO codes, does it read all the Volvo modules, Can you record live data, and then display on a PC, Thanks Dave

Ok good ! I was looking for some info on what you did... What does the kit include ? I mean do you get all the gaskets ? And did it work ?😉

Hello, are you still around ?

And part 2 ?

Hi, can you activate heated seats with Vida?

Hey any idea where you get the 2014A? :)

On watching this video two issues immediately stand out: 1. Assembling something as precise as a valve body outside under the open sky, 2. Assembling 'dry', i.e. using nothing to keep check valves etc. in place during assembly. I overhauled many Borg Warner boxes (Jaguar XJ6/Rover) in the 80s ... absolute cleanliness is crucial to avoid problems, or having to remove everything again. Address these issues and you can only improve.

Mike, this video is great. Honestly, it convinced me to (probably!) not try to rebuild my valve body. I bought the transgo solenoid rebuild and gasket kit. I have a saab, and I can get to the solenoids without removing the valve body. Current plan is to remove the pan, remove the solenoids, rebuild, and reinstall. What do you think? BTW - loved your son coming in to help! I hope you teach him the same skills that you've picked up. FYI kiddo coming into a video is no problem at all

Hello: I have a 2005 XC90 and replace the ABS module, but (used) brings another serial number. know how it is programmed serial number in the ABS module? Regards

Well it could have gone pear shaped but after almost 2 years and 14,000kms it shifts reasonably well. Of course it can slam into gears but with nowhere near the ferocity it did when first purchased. I lost 3rd gear shortly after the rebuild which was sorted by replacement of the 3rd gear friction band. I acknowledge that my video is somewhat disjointed and you can clearly see I'm not a professional and I don't pretend to be; just an average DIYer shadetree mechanic trying to pay the bills and give his family a safe vehicle without remortgaging the house. I saved over $4,000 when compared to a professional rebuild and as my last commenter so wisely added there are too many rebuilders out there hardly changing enough parts so it can just get through the 12 month warranty. Seems there are few rebuilders out there to trust and I had a go at this based on this advice.

I was laughing my ass. What an amateur. One can tell this guy has no idea how to assemble these valve bodies. "Oh, this didn't go very well..", that was funny. I may have done this too, years ago when I first started working on them. And all the garbage Transgo stuff. Who the hell uses those anyway? I never do. It's waste of money. Just like the Sonax overpriced c-rap. Can't blame the guy. I had to deal with a VB once supposedly "rebuilt" by professionals and found numerous issues with it. Of course that VB failed. Missing parts inside? I laugh at how stupid many folks are to think that the overpriced junk like Transgo and Sonax will fix the Valve body. It won't. Unless you get a good section with little wear that Transgo junk won't cut it.

2:30 Love the dangling happy feet. :-) It's great being a daddy.

Hi there Mike! Thanks for your video. Would you know where I can find the wiring scheme for the transmission? Cheers

Thanks for the video. It is making my assembly go a lot smoother.

Mike which module is responsible for a service reminder ? need it to clear that message.

Did you get satisfying results? I probably will have check that my XC as well. So far I needed to replace C1/C2 clutch

Very good. Just what I was looking 4.

You are a brave man. Good luck and I hope it all works out in the end.

Well the car it was fitted to was written off so I'll never find out. As the bearings were spinning without noise I expect it would last at least a couple of years at least. Most problems with alternators not producing voltage are in the regulator area.

Thanks for the info. Have changed the title.

2005 onwards has LIN communication instead of L-signal so it won't fit.

It's how Volvo factory trained technicians diagnose and program the vehicle so what can I say, it works!!

Hey. How can you change vehicle computer language from Italian to EN?

Great video! How many miles were on this alt? Also how has this repair held up over time? Thanks!!!

what do you think of the vida? Do you have any gripes for this software?

Yes with the licensed version which requires software download and subscription to Volvo corporate tech site.

Very helpful. Thanks.

Have you selected all the vehicle parameters properly in Vehicle Selection? Also can you perform a communication test of the Dice tool?

Remember that the people who sold you this package are the least likely to know how it works. Try applying the patch supplied to the root directory of "C" drive instead of the Vida folder. This seems to fix most login problems
