I've had mine for around 2 years. Saved my ass a few times as I could diagnose codes and reset them. And I just love monitoring the things in my car.

[@MsMsmak]

Very cool! I'm going to order one! Thank you for this!!! It will be such a fun thing to KNOW what's wrong with the car when I walk into a service shop! It also saves me the cost of buying the separate rear hatch patch for opening and closing it remotely.

[@JohnGorny]

Ive seen these around and always thought it would be nice to have for diagnostics especially with how cumbersome dice is to tote around and ongoing issues with direct install VIDA. Not to mention i have like $1000 worth of gear "just sitting around" When i do need it, I have my dice unit hooked up to a surface pro 7, if this could replace vida in the way of getting granular within the can network run all the resets and perhaps install fuel maps and other things, i think id probably buy it and just leave ny unconnected VIDA VM on my home desktop for parts and procedures reference. Will keep an eye on these guys. Thanks for recording the review, great content as usual.

[@MrTuhascvbouwq]

i wish there was something about disabling the start stop function

[@zzoinks]

It's really neat but with the subscription is probably too expensive to me. I would think purchasing subscription or extra cost will be more reasonable for multiple vehicles, but not for use on my one vehicle on a budget. Still a very neat device! Looks like it took a lot of work to make so I understand trying to earn some money on it.

[@tsvetanyonchev9281]

Hello Yuri, Thank you so much for what you are doing to share with us all your experience with our favorite brand Volvo. I appreciate your demonstration of VDD capabilities. I am considering to get one for my Volvo XC 70 3.2. Could you share your experience regarding the battery drain from VDD? Sometimes I do not drive my car regularly and I am worried it will add more battery drain than normal.

[@kamata93]

Just a quick note - I have been to multiple EU countries. Never saw 2G network. Everybody is using at last 4G network with some countries having 5G.

[@zzoinks]

Would that affect the dongle's functionality, I wonder. Another thing that stinks is the dongle's functionality depends on the operation of the business - if their activation servers go down, the dongle must stop working.

[@mountaincat23]

I'm curious how this compares to the AP200. That device costs only about $60, uses bluetooth, and comes with lifetime license for one vehicle. On Mercedes it is nearly the equivalent of dealer level diagnostics and functions. Ever tried it on a P3 XC70?

[@TomskiZima]

I just bought it and found this video after the first time I used it, after Autel updated the app on play store 😅

[@andreasmilde1949]

Hello, nice explanation of the VDD functions. But i have a question: Will the extender functions remain after the dongle is removed? Or do they reset if remove him from the OBD socket?

[@SirOlsen1]

This would be awesome for my 2011 XC70 ❤ Browsed the page, but I struggle to see what option would suit me the best. What’s the difference between those different options? :) thank you in advance

[@aguiremedia]

Is this “reset” different than than my obd reader clearing my check engine light?

[@nordictraveller]

@volvosweden Is there an option to show i.e. oil temperatures in the DIM (P2)? Like engine oil temp, ATF oil temp, etc. I found "DIM Text" in the features, but there's no further information...

[@JamesGillies-n4p]

Does it tell you when the DPF is regenerating?

[@mihmihai9451]

@volvosweden Hy Yuri, I have 2 questions if you have the time to respond me it will be much apreciated ! First one, in your video when you instaled the phone app, your circle of gps traker was very small and i presume that gps precision its at 100/200m radius max. Me, i did the same but when i see my gps circle i think it has at least 3/4km radius...so how its that hapening? Second if you can tell me where do we find the detailed codes to interpret the DTC'S Thx a lot💯🙏✌️

[@oscasterr]

You are the best

[@danne26sk]

Thanks, great video! Will the VDD still function locally with the phone like fault codes reading etc. if you don't have the mobile subscription?

[@volvosweden]

It will not

[@quanticador1103]

Hi I am wondering what the point of the subscription is? Personally, I am not looking to extend the features and am only interested in the live data such as DTC, temperatures, fuel left etc. If I cannot see this basic information without the subscription, could you please recommend me a product that will? Thanks!

[@volvosweden]

VDD connects to your devices via cell phone GSM network. It does not support local bluetooth connection. The 70 euro a year is only like 6 euro a month. I am using the VDD in both of my Volvos and I love it. I dont know any other product that can recommend.

[@D5T5_com]

the 6€ / month coveres the global data connectivity, server hosting, maintenance and development of new functions

[@quanticador1103]

I understand better now why the subscription exists. It is unfortunate that there's no BT capability but if there really are no other competitors offering the same features, I'll consider the value it brings. Thanks for the replies!

[@capo0232]

Hi Yuri, great video. My question: Until when is the promo code valid?

Good question. No time limit as for now. The promo code is only who stumbled across this video or if someone shared it. I would not worry limit.

Does VDash work with the VDD dongle for complete diagnosis and configuring the car?

[@mattiaslundahl1585]

If you take the dongle off, will your windows still autoclose when you shut off the car? Can you try if that works Yuri? 😊

You mean close not shut off the engine. The dongle need to be connected to car for the functions to work

[@jasper_north]

Thanks. Does the app work with the car shut-off?? Will the dongle drain the battery??

[@D5T5_com]

Hello, yes, it works when the car is off. The cars power consumption in deep sleep mode is around 15-20mA, the VDD has the consumption in deep sleep around 5-10 mA. If your car has good battery, then it should survive at least 4-6 weeks and it should be still able to start the engine. Of course you can easily monitore the battery voltage from the app and get critical low voltage notification

it is completely different thing, then VIDA. VIDA is only diagnostic software used with diagnostics cable. This is independent device, which gives you online connectivity to the car + extending functionality (like remotely open windows, start fuel heater, see where the car is parked,...)
