I love all the work you do. You don't cut corners or take the easy way out. Do it right once, and done!
Excellent job my friend! The extra touch when you sprayed everything was EXACTLY what I did!
Great attention to detail, clear instructions and a perfect job… thank you …
Thanks for the video, it was most helpful. I am in Australia, where our towbars have a much bigger tow capacity of 2100kg. My towbar is an original Volvo , a slightly different design which meant I needed to make alterations to the collision member and a deeper cutout on the bumper cover. The main point here though fyi, is that I used 3 bolts on either side to secure it to the car. I now know way more than I ever wanted to about these towbars. Given the opportunity to do it again I would have bought a Hayman Reece version which is a great design for quick install, still providing 2100kg rating and no changes to any components . To think, the model previous is basically a 10 minute install. This was a 28 page download of instructions and another document of the harness. Crazy!!
Very nice job! You just saved my day , because i gonna replace my taillights and i didn't know how , but now i knew how. Thanks a lot!
As usual, Excelent video! I love your videos. You make everything look so easy and inspiring! 5/5 stars!
Amazing video! I love the way you give yourselfe komplements on your good job! Looking forward on more videos👍
Great job, superb workmanship!
Very nice and through job, nice that you did not have to cut the exhaust!
Nice job Yuri, thank you for this step by step guide. Greetings from turkey
Excelent! Thank you very much!!
I think you're right there, no one would have gone to that much effort - the benefit of being able to do things yourself! Skills. It was also tight space wise torquing those exhaust bolts, but you still managed to do it without dropping the exhaust whilst keeping a camera in there too 🤣
Very good video! I was going to pay someone to fit mine, but after watching your video I will do it myself 😁
You did a super Job and a super Video! Thank you very much
Another great video, job well done.
Another great job and video 👍🇸🇪 Wish I was a bit more hands on with my Volvo C30, it would save me a lot of money! 😀
You're a master woaw respect 😀
Excelente muy buen video
Saludos desde Galicia España 🇪🇸
It's nice when cars are designed and built correctly. It is a shame when you take it to the dealer and little bits are missed. Unless you find the right person, no one will give it the same level of detail as you would yourself.
Nice job.
I have a 2009 v70 D4 Business Momentum. It has 197000km on it and it's still great. What I wish is if you were closer by as I could fully trust you to do a more than a great job on it. All your work is excellent and you do not cut corners. Your videos are as good.
Thx so much!
Very nice work. In watching your procedure, I believe I am going to drop my exhaust like you did, to run the red hot wire to the front of the car (2014 XC70) - I can route the wire over the exhaust shield. etrailers said they used an electrician's fish tape.
Very good job..I think we should like the video he really deserved it.
Perfection.👍
Very useful video thank you, I am undecided whether to fit a towbar at this stage, I fitted one to my previous car (not a Volvo). Good on Volvo for having the predrilled holes but a little more work despite that. Mine will of course be a 13 pin connector (I am in the UK) but I have an adaptor for older trailer wiring.
Spasiba Yuri !!!
Glad you like the videos.
Спасибо!
Bravo !
Hi just some info for you. Volvo wasn’t lazy to make the trailer module cable short, this came about because the original trailer module 30744321 actually lived where the cable ended under the organizer. Then Volvo came up with updated trailer module 31407107, because of the angle which the connectors are plugged into this updated trailer module they changed the mounting location, hence the original cable became too short & requires the extension cable. I heard rumor that original trailer module doesn’t like LED lights on the trailer, hence Volvo updated it, although I was not able to confirm if this was true.
Great video as always... keep it up 🙂 and hopefully your kids will like volvos as much as u do 🤔🙂
One is saying he want a Porche
@@volvosweden 🤣🤣
Genial saludos cordiales desde Patagonia Chile..
Nice video i drive VOLVO V50 2.0D
Darn, had hoped you installed the newer one which has an extra connector (goes to F9 in the fuse box). Trying to remove mine after installing the wrong cabling first time, and it's way harder than I though it'd be 😅
But as usual, great job from your side 😁
What do you use to make the bumper plastics look brand new? thanks in advance
I lost both of the plastic nuts (those than you can unscrew with a 10mm - minute 9:13). Do you know where can i buy them? Or do you know which is the interior metric? Thanks!!
Installed a cheap Curt trailer hitch for my 08 XC70 which is quite different from the Thule one, but you gave all the required info for me to get it done easily. PS Volvo accessories no longer has the instructions on their site!!
Thx so much for the coffee !
@@volvosweden I think your world class videos are responsible for hundreds of P3s out there that otherwise would have been left to deteriorate. You may never hear about them but the TH-cam watching numbers prove there’s huge silent demand.
The one retrofit I’m surprised you haven’t done yet is xenon retrofit. I don’t even own a Volvo lol, but I’m waiting for you to complete that retrofit
No plans. Too much $
Did the towing software made any changes to the transmission like changing gears when towing or any noticeable changes. Enjoy the kids the grow up very fast!
Could you tell us what kinds of tools and extra parts you keep in the spare tire cover?Or your top go-to hand tools in general? I’m trying to build up a basic Volvo maintenance kit, and I’m a beginner. I have a compressor/jump pack, lots of bulbs, a body pry tool, a socket set, and an electric screwdriver with a lot of bits. Oh and a funnel and a spare quart of oil.
I can’t get out my front parking bulb despite a few helpful videos, so I thought I’d add a pick and long bent needle nose pliers to my little tool box.
What else is good to have on hand, car people? I have a good mechanic, but this channel has become my DIY to-do list!
Definitely not hauling anything soon but now I’m going to look for rust! Thank you for all the good tips and video work. :)
Torx 25 screwdriver or driver with bit set
Hey! Do I need the CEM pin to activate the TRM module? And how much did the software cost, 39,99$ exc. VAT?? Gonna try this myself.
Hi you are one the best because you show us how to do things that we can't find on Internet.
I don't want to bother you but your Vida is original one from Volvo or it's an aliexpress one?
If it's an aliexpress can you please provide link?
Thank you
Kind regards
How much does the VDASH software cost to activate the module?
Any other non-volvo modules anyone suggest? I have the same volvo as in the video
Great video, thanks! Did you use the trailer module from the scrapyard car, or did you buy a new trailer module from Volvo? From the video it looks like the scrapyard car's module.
Used module
Great video as always.
Just to confirm you used a used TRM?
VDASH no problems with used TRM.
Cheers from Australia
Darren
Yes. Used from junk yard. No problem programming with VDash
Thankyou
Do you know, what's the type/name of green connector from harness with trailer socket which is to be plugged into TRM?
I don’t know
Hi great video doing the me job my question to you is lve been looking for a vadi like yours i have three volvos going back to 1999xc do all my own work if you can help me out thanks
I have a 2015 xc70 T6 and I'm also looking to tow with it. Do you measure the tongue weight? I was shocked after purchased to see that the tongue weight capacity was only 165lbs. It's been impossible to get straight answers on this question. If anyone has a recommendation please let me know!
What are you planning to tow? Just make sure what you tow is level and does not overweight the tongue.
One more question to the author, did you install brand new or used control module? If used, did vdash make module working with your car without problems?
Used from Junk yard. Works after loading with VDASH
@@volvosweden I asked because I did the same, but not everything went as smooth as in your case (I have 2016 XC70). I understand there was no special play with software reload, etc to match to your VIN number, wasn't?
Not sure. Did you reload software with vdash?
@@volvosweden vdash forced reload it after i turned on TRM module in CEM - when it was visible by system vdash forced CLONE operation, and as description shows "Trailer module fixup Force Upload TRM" (another paid operation) was done, did you have the same case?
Retrofit the parkingsensors and camera?
No. I am used to look back and want extra technology that will give trouble
i saw you didn't got the exact part number module as specified by Volvo accessories. Are all P3 trailer module working on our XC70s?
I dont know the answer to your question but it worked for me
@@volvosweden I’ll test it soon with a different part number than yourself and different than the one listed on Volvo accessories page… I’ll post here afterwards maybe somebody else needs the info.
@mihai66hrc perfect. Do that for us
@@volvosweden this is at least what I can do taking into account what you’re doing for the community 😁…
@@volvosweden tested today with the TRM P.N. 31399575 bought from the scrapyard from an XC60 and installed in the XC70 and afterwards configured with VDASH… no issue at all so I bet any P3 Volvo TRM works. Also, the power supply cable from the existing harness to the TRM can be pulled from the loom to reach the TRM location, it comes from the fuse panel to the location where is taped, I also extended the small green connector wires to reach the location of the TRM (obviously COM wires with twisted pairs as they should be). On the other hand, do you have any contact at D5T5? Tried today to disable my 4C adaptive suspension with vdash cause the previous owner changed the struts to standard bilstein and I get DSTC error and headlight service required messages after loading the CEM config, when tried to see what the issue is with VIDA, I see that the suspension module config is what’s causing the errors so I’m wondering if I need to do some other HW actions to disable the 4C without any errors. Thanks!
Let me guess, your sail boat has a Volvo Penta motor in it? 😊
I wish. 12V Trolling Motor.
👋🇸🇪👍
Why you don't cover tailgate seal, and also let to go inside car painting dust, doesn't look like good job with that
I watched for that. Totally agree on your recommendation.
By the way the seal was cleaned from the overspray
You appear to be wearing your pyjamas?

Popular silicone does not like copper. He is aggressive to her.
Wow.. reasonably good job. Rather over liberal with the spraycan products considering the lack of masking on plastic yrim panels/ rubbers etc...🤔
Thx. Better then nothing
