Well, my "CE" light is on again. It's been coming on since I bought the car new, the first time being at 1500 miles. The code is usually 611 or 612, which are the mystery codes indicating a leak in the fuel vapor recovery system. The dealer keeps changing parts, but nothing really helps. I was even given a VIP plan in an attempt by VCNA to shut me up, but the light keeps coming on, so I keep bringing the car in. I am on first name basis with the service manager and he recognizes me when I call without introduction (he is an agreeable guy who helped me get the extended warranty out of Volvo for my continued trouble). The fact is that I love the car and don't want to get rid of it, but the CE light on means inspection failure and I really don't want to have to ignore it in case there is a real code there. I guess I am just looking to comisurate with like owners and I realize that there is nothing much I can do... My current working theory is that the test that the car pefrorms on the fuel recovery system periodically is flawed and often produces a "FALSE" failure. It's either that or the parts the dealer keeps changing are defective (over a half dozen check valves, a rollover valve, several charcoal canisters, pressure sensor, the list goes on of what was replaced due to this problem). The good thing is that the dealer is very close to my house and I always get a curtesy car (| drove many new Volvos including the '01 XC and S80 T6 bith outstanding cars, but the XC is more to my liking).
Thanks for listening.
