I bought a 98 s70 a few weeks ago. the battery died and I put a new one on. After about a hundred miles of driving I took it to the station and it failed most of the readiness tests, at least 5 not complete. Looking at the drive cycle instructions, there is just no way I can complete a whole test cycle. I'm not in a hurry since the last owner's license plate won't expire till July. Question is: If I drive it everyday till July (500 to 1000 miles), is there a chance that everything will become ready? Thx

    Most hand held code readers will list the monitor's status. I am surprised that at least two of them have not completed a cycle in 100 miles. Go ahead and drive the car and check it again in a month or so.
