Failed Emissions S90-V90

posted by  someone claiming to be sevenvolvos on  Sun May 15 10:11 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Following is a "drive cycle" which might help.
It came from the current IPD FWD catalog, p 26.
Don't ask just how we accomplish this cycle.
Wonder how a dealer does it?

850 DRIVE CYCLE TO HELP PASS EMISSIONS

If your readiness codes aren’t set the following procedure from Volvo will reset the codes.

Start with the vehicle cool, below 122 degrees F, and turn off the A/C.
Find a location where the driving can be without violating traffic laws and you can stop safely at the side of the road.

Start the engine and accelerate to approximately 1500 to 2000 rpm.
Drive for 6 minutes at 1500 to 2000 rpm.
Stop the vehicle and remain at idle in Drive for 70 seconds.
Accelerate to at least 45 mph and drive for 5 minutes at 1800 to 2200 rpm.
Stop the vehicle and remain at idle in Drive for 60 seconds.
Accelerate to at least 45 mph and drive for 4 minutes at 1800 to 2200 rpm.
Stop the vehicle and remain at idle in Drive for 60 seconds.
Park the vehicle and turn off the engine.

This procedure must be performed TWICE from a cold start to set the readiness codes.
