Can I get the XeMODeX at my independent dealer?
Not yet. XeMODeX is working on finding distributors and getting the word out to dealers. One problem is the lack of cores (parts removed from a car that are rebuildable.). ETMs removed from cars by dealers are returned to VCNA for testing, it if is truly bad the dealer is reimbursed, if not he is charged for the part. This is one reason why the Authorized Volvo Dealers are very reluctant to replace ETMs based on driveability symptoms, a specific OBD code is required. If the Campaign 155 software download has NOT been performed, the dealer must do this first under a recall. This may remove the poor driveability symtoms but only delays the final limp-home failure. Yes: If your independent mechanic/dealer is also in the Volvo salvage business, as many are, they might have a core they can send to XeMODeX, have it rebuilt and exchange it in your car, about a 2 hour job. Caution: There are several varieties of software depending on the car model. If you replace an ETM from a different model
