V50 Error Messages and Module Coding

I had a similar issue with my V50 a while back. Same symptoms – error messages all over the place. Did you happen to check the coding of the car's control modules? That was my issue, and it seems to be a somewhat common problem.

Thanks for the quick reply! Coding of the control modules, huh? How did you figure that out? And was it something you could fix yourself, or did you have to take it to a shop?

I struggled with it for a while, scanned all possible modules and so on. Then, looking at a Volvo forum, I found that some modules were incorrectly coded for the car's configuration. Unfortunately, I couldn't fix it myself. It needed a proper diagnostic scanner and someone who knew how to recode everything. I suggest going to the workshop.

Alright, that's what I was afraid of. Sounds like it's beyond my capabilities then. I'll book it in with my local independent Volvo specialist. Thanks for confirming my suspicions! The repair cost me 360€ to get it recoded, but at least it fixed the problem.
