-Press and hold in the reset button for the trip odometer
-Ignition position II within 2 seconds.
-Hold the reset button for the trip meter pressed in until the original value has been reset.
-Release the reset button for the trip odometer within 4 seconds. The instrument gives an audible signal when resetting has succeeded
-If the trip meter is already reset the reset button should be held in for a minimum of 10 seconds and a maximum of 14 seconds. If the reset button for the trip odometer is not released within 4 seconds, the service reminder indicator (SRI) is not reset.

Get a "162" in the cluster where messages appear, but the same reminder persists when I restart.
Appreciate any other help you can give me! Thanks, doctor dick.
Thanks.
How can I turn it off....just reset it.
HELP!
Get the car fixed fer cryin out loud.
Actually, you can't reset it.
Has to be done via a VADIS or VIDA hookup.
Might be able to read the code w/ an OBD reader.
Is premium gas a must for all?
Also, I understand the T6 is not as reliable as the 2.5?
However, the car does run better on it,and is quicker.
The S60 and S80 AWD's are essentially the same car.
S80 is just bigger.
Engine to engine, they are both reliable.
The issue w/ the T6 is that the transmission on the T6 isn't the optimal one for the car.
You are limited in 1st and 2nd gear w/ the T6,
Which makes the car feel slower than it should.
Some T6's had transmission issues,although most are fine.
Personally, I prefer the AWD setup because I don't like torque steer.
So, I would probably go w/ the S80 AWD over the T6.
All in all, the "07 V8 is everything I need in a car--luxury and performance at a price that is reasonable. Features found in a high end MB or Jaguar or BMW at much more buyable price.
Good luck! doctor dick
Comments please.
Seriously though. Modern fuel injected engines require fule to be pumped at much higher pressure levels than an antique engine driven pump.
Hence, the electric fuel pump.
BTW, modern fuel pumps are place INSIDE the fuel tank.
So, when they break(and they do) you either have to remove the gas tank or, do as some motor comapnies do and go in from under the rear seat. After you remove a plate in the chassis.
Before you start castigating the people who fixed your car, I'd learn a little more about cars in general.
Unfortunately this failure happened in the parking lot of a Cardiac hospital where I was being prepared for heart surgery, so I was unable to perform the repair myself. As I noted in my earlier post, I have driven Volvos because of their reputation for dependability and safety. I don't think that a fuel pump failure at an odometer reading of 45,506 miles is indicative of dependability. The "castigating" I did was not as an opinion of anyone's mechanical ability, but a comment on the type of person that would leave greasy hand prints on the steering wheel, headliner, and car exterior. That type of careless behavior does not indicate someone with mechanical skill and pride.
I resent your arrogance in assuming that I am a novice in things mechanical. I made my living, and a damn good one, in that field for over forty years. :mad:
The post was written as if the poster had no knowledge of electric fuel pumps, their location or servicing.
As for the 45,000 miles, that is immaterial.
Anything man made can and does break.
If cars were supposed to be perfect, they wouldn't come with a warranty, would they?
It is absolutely necessary to replace the timing belt,and a good idea to do the water pump at the same time.
GET IT DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm primarily concerned about safety as this is for my new driving teenager. The T6 has the Dynamic Stability Traction Control (DSTC) which the 2.9 does not.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
It's much more likely to need the DSTC.
I'd go w/ the 2.9.
Thanks! MP
Someone out there (at Volvo NA!??) should know how to do it, or maybe its one of those that must have the attention of the expensive computer only volvo dealers can afford.
I can, annoyed, live with it. doctor dick.
Try ebay.

You can replace the Pirelli's with any tire.
however, did you complain of any problems? if you don't feel anything wrong, or if your tires are not wearing unevenly, then i would leave it alone.

rear brakes were toast also. It cost me a grand. They also told me my ball joint was loose. I had new struts at 70K.
Local dealer asking $26000 for it with 18k on odometer. Certified Volvo used car good to 100k mi or 2012 whichever comes first.
my alternate choice is an '08 Taurus for $16,500, clearly more affordable for me. Volvo dealer will not budge on price.
Any info on "real world" mpg?
thanx

You should avg mid 20's on the highway.
Combined in the low 20's.
