Tune your Volvo with D5T5.COM. Engine optimization DIY.

[@Colin623]

To all volvo D5 owners please check your fuel filter has been changed, my D5 engine was slowly but surely being starved of fuel over many years because the fuel filter was blocked due to lack of being changed by my local garage at the required service interval (35,000 miles, 56,000 km) will transform performance of your engine if your filter is blocked or partially blocked !

[@Dalbayob69]

Aisin gearboxes are only rated to 450nm max hence why Polestar tune only goes to 440nm. You can tune these engines to much more but gearbox is the weakest point. Hope it works out for you and we wont be seeing a video soon on how to change the gearbox on XC70. I have a 12’ XC70 D5 and a lot of your videos have helped with maintenance and upgrades. Keep up the good work.

[@nuuttihyttinen]

engineered.polestar.com/se/product/optimisation/xc70-d5-awd-automatic-2012 Vridmoment (Nm) Original: 440 Optimerad: 470 The standard torque for your car is 440 Nm. The Polestar optimization for your car (the same as I have) goes to 470 Nm.

[@IwillBwaiting]

How about an S80 T6(305hp standard)? Polestar tune will give same output as this one (330-ish/480Nm) but real power output is roughly 325hp / 520Nm. Real top end output was 550Nm btw (thats 100Nm more than your max). kzbin.info/www/bejne/eITcp6yEqbiAo5Y

Hey @ volvosweden, I was planning on going for the official Polestar tune for my 2017 XC90. The official one costs $900 and the D5T5 version costs $450. Do you think D5T5 is better? How about fuel consumption and engine life?

[@legambaz]

Polestar has always been too conservative (And expensive) in their tune. This one sure is easy and inexpensive. But there are tunes that give much better power (without hardware upgrade). But those tunes need removing ECU and have it connected to a PC directly. But the process is only a few minutes. My XC70 got from 197HP to 280HP and 390Nm in half an hour. They can even fine-tune the ECU to match your driving habits/preference. But that's another story. D5T5 sounds worthy of a try as it's much easier to access than engaging a good tuner.

[@martinevans6289]

My XC70 D5 MY2014 went from 215bhp to 245bhp without any hardware upgrade, but it was an 'ECU out' job. The car is very lively now but fuel economy has dropped from 37.50mpg to 31.05mpg :-( Maybe the remap made my right boot get heavier!! ;-)

[@airfrancerider369]

I would be more conservative as the TF-80SC is limited to handle 440Nm of torque and is far from being ultra reliable but this is a very nice option to improve engine perf at a very reasonable cost. I might be tempted !

[@anyone5278]

the polestar tune from the dealer gets it to 480 nm so i think the transmission can withstand more than 440 or the dealer wouldnt sell such tune

You can pay D5T5 to remove 4C system. You can also short/ground out the sensor from your old strut and trick it that 4C is functional despite having now regular struts. BUT, I found the Monroe 4C strut (for my s80) under manufacture product ID and found 4C struts for $250 online, new.... if you don’t remind replacing your own coils/struts then this $250 option is optimal if you want to keep car fully functional

Thanks for you information, will absolutly check for my car.

[@BruteWillis]

There is a valid reason why Polestar does stay on the safe side with tuning by not overtune the engine. Polestar is recommended by Volvo if you want to tune your Volvo. There are other softwares that probably turn your Volvo in a beast but might lead into blown engines or other issues. If you want your Volvo to last long with high mileage simply don't tune it. Not sure why you want to tune it if you already have 281HP.

[@alvaroalmada8613]

Can anyone confirm the first gen XC90 V8 tune is legit from their website? I don't see any engine/tunes available anywhere and the consensus is nobody has taken the time to tune the V8, so I'm a bit skeptical.

[@oscasterr]

Hi thanks for the video, I have a Volvo V60 hybrid 2015, it's a D6 plus electric engine. Thanks to your video about Polestar I bought Polestar in Spain which is very expensive, we are talking about 900 euro. The d5t5 is a great web but it's a pity that they can't do anything with the electric engine, for instance something like removing the limit about 120 km/h when the electric engine doesn't help anymore will be welcomed or improving the electric engine will be great because for the D6 engine I only gain 20 hp from my Polestar update, now I have a total amount of 300 hp and 20 hp more in the diesel engine is few but if sometime they change something about the electric engine it will be awesome. And about making EGR off, is that a good idea? I don't know about engines so sorry if that one is a stupid question. Thank you kind regards

[@Mr.Riffian]

Yes elimination the EGR will keep your engine clean and more powerful. EGR recirculates the exhaust gas back to the inlet. It's like you eating your own poop 😅

[@JohnLawley24v]

Your gearbox can't handle the standard power if you tune it it'll break even faster.

[@phishphood423]

@@JohnLawley24v Eh as a T6 owner I agree but also disagree. Info dump incoming. AFAIK main issues with the 4T65 as Volvo used it are: 1. Failure due to fluid contamination (with engine coolant) 2. Clutch pack wear from the absolute garbage shift times of the 4T65. Laziest shifts ever, especially with the thicker Dextron III fluid. 3. Hard part failure (somehow snapping an input shaft/breaking the TC/shredding a brake band) The death of these transmissions seems to be total roulette. I know of people with well over 100K mi on their 4T65. Some people report three failures in 100K. I am sure some is driving habit/skill. If the radiator cracks or develops a leak into the internal transmission cooler, you are SOL and probably won't know till it's too late, unless the radiator failure is catastrophic. I had this at 40K but got a new trans out of the deal. That's a flaw with the cooling system, not the trans, but people don't know and often blame the 4T65. Regular fluid changes and upgrading to Dextron VI will help in any case. A $45-$100 shift kit from Transgo or Intense and about two hours of your time can often fix the hard shift issues or "max adapt" codes. It will also reduce clutch pack wear which will dramatically forestall the most common cause of 4T65 death: the clutch packs wearing down to nothing from the long, lazy shifts. Then you get errors, very harsh shifts, potentially limp mode, or worse. My 2004 T6 XC90 is tuned to target 320 HP. haven't blown the gearbox yet, nearing 100K on this 4T65. The shift kit will be going in soon. If you blow the gearbox (it will blow someday) you can get it rebuilt to handle 400+ WHP. In other words, the gearbox is not REALLY the limiting factor if you have money to spend on a car. As far as the 2.9 T6 is concerned, good motor, but the 2.8L has better power potential. Biggest issues with the 2.9L as far as chasing power are the TINY TD03-8G turbos, you can maybe get to ~14-15 PSI of boost but you are at the upper end of the efficiency range and those turbos quickly become a flow restriction. The next issue is the open deck design and cylinder wall thickness. The 2.9 has 83mm bore, the 2.8 has 81mm bore much like the famed B5244T5. People have reported 480 WHP out of the 2.8 with a bigger turbo. The 2.9 is going to have similar issues to any of the other Volvo 5cyl engines: AKA cracked cylinder walls. After that its con rods and pistons! Toying with the idea of getting a 2.8 block and mating it to the 2.9 head from my '90. Getting a second thrashed 4T65 to rebuild myself, then slapping that back in the car and going to one big turbo. Dunno if I will do so someday or not.

we even tried Vida tester but that does not work either

[@notthedroidsyoulookingfor]

stop spending money in time! the prices for this so called "upgrades" are more expensive than your 99' Volvo! I've learned that on the hard way...

[@tk-ch2zh]

340 dolars for ST2? Ridiculous price. It's standard price for local tuner with dyno tests!!! And you don't need to have Vida...

[@piotrn9196]

In EU 300EUR plus VAT. You can get pro service and no need for vida with that money

Not everyone lives close to such a facility. This means that this is an option.

[@cobratitu]

In Spain, VDASH prices are cheap. In order to do it on a local tuner you need to spend 400€-500€ and in my car model with VDASH is 200€. Totally worth it.

Hi, I have a 2007 s60 and I'm trying to use the vdash from d5t5 to change the configuration. I'm trying to retrofit the OEM ABL headlights. I already purchased the headlights and button. Do you know how to read the wiring diagram and run the wire to make it works?

[@volvosweden]

I don't . Sorry

[@Onizula]

@volvosweden thank you for your video. My S80 is a 2.0L diesel 100kw (Europe market) with 173000km. Is there a risk for my engine if I go for 120kw ?

[@airfrancerider369]

Si votre moteur est le L4 2.0 TDCI de chez Ford/PSA (136ch), je n'irais pas au-delà de 150ch sans démontage, surtout que sur ce moteur, à l'inverse de la famille Volvo D5, le système de dépollution n'est pas aussi optimal (EGR et FAP non prévus pour la vie du véhicule) donc encrassement plus fréquent. A moins que votre moteur soit clean, 100% d'autoroute à 3000 trs/minutes régulièrement, le risque est de pousser le turbo dans ses retranchements tout en étant encrassé et donc d'accélérer sa perte. A 173 000 km, il y a des chances pour que le turbo ait déjà un jeu, je démonterais d'abord / ferais vérifier par un pro pour être sûr. Si tout est ok, vous devriez pouvoir arriver à 160ch. Les derniers moteurs 2.0 TDCI ont été poussés par Ford à 160ch mais ils ont probablement changé des pièces entre la période 2007-2009 et 2018 donc pas si évident à dire sans connaître ce moteur en détail. Possédant le D3 163 sur la même voiture, je peux vous dire que le surplus de puissance (sans AWD) sera un peu vain à cause de la perte de motricité qui est assez prononcée car le couple est déjà très élevé sur nos moteurs !

[@Onizula]

@@airfrancerider369 c'est bien ce moteur psa oui. Merci pour cette réponse éclairée, je vais gentiment le garder tel quel !

[@alexandermartincausey7333]

Is that only 25,544 km on that V50? Woah.

[@volvosweden]

It is! kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3nLn2CDbNd4rKM

Hie. Does the d5t5 program transm modules on any platform, especially on th 2014 s60 with powershift. If not, wht can i use when i do a transm swop

[@volvosweden]

I am not sure but feel like it will.

[@vincentmulalo2566]

So i cant.tune my 2.4i non turbo

[@pz5508]

Thank you for sharing, by the way can it be done to S60 2.0T of 2005 on similar upgrade?

[@volvosweden]

Take your VIN and search on d5t5 website. You will see what's available

My laptop crashed while loading the Optimization file. Now my headlights and tail lights strobe and the car will not start. No lights on dash when key is tuned. How do I restore the ECU?

[@volvosweden]

There is an option in Vdash to restore. Look for it it’s there.

Does it work for D5 awd XC90 2010 diesel
