Nowhere does it say the dealer will CLEAR a code. If I were a dealer, I wouldn't. Just for liability.

You want me to clear an SRS or ABS code without checking out the component responsible for the error? No way.

But, it would be nice to know which part of the ABS/SRS/HVAC that is producing the code. The Volvo specific codes will tell you if the EGR solenoid is failing or it is just clogged. Is it the cabin blower or the rheostat? Is the ABS module dying or is it a sensor? The current generic Pnnnn codes do not tell us that.

Good luck!

Klaus
