Chiptuning and ECU copying for VEA P3 2014-2018 via OBD

Starting from 10/10/2023, it is now possible to upload engine performance optimization and disable the EGR for Volvo models on the P3 platform - S80II, V/XC70III, S60II, V60, V40II, V40CC - model years 2014 to 2019 with the 4-cylinder Volvo VEA engine (both diesel and gasoline) and an automatic 8-speed or 7-speed transmission, all through the OBD port without the need to remove the engine control unit or use a UCBP adapter. Additionally, you can create an identical copy of the unit (clone). This operation is supported using Volvo DiCE, Super J2534, Mongoose JLR, VXDiag diagnostic cables. The SUPER J2534 diagnostic cable is available for purchase at: www.D5T5.com/superj2534

New VDASH FLAT Pricing (one price for unlimited configuration changes and tuning)

We have lowered prices across all VDASH software and introduced new unlimited tariffs in VDASH FLAT in two variants. Now, for a single price, you can change any item in your vehicle's configuration for 1 year. After this period, there is a minimum maintenance fee of 10% of the FLAT tariff purchase price to continue the option of unlimited configuration changes. The FLAT tariff can be purchased in these variants:

  • VDASH FLAT Config – change any item in the configuration (navigation, independent heating, etc.)
  • VDASH FLAT Ultimate – all VDASH software and features included

The FLAT tariff is always tied to a specific VIN and user account. You can transfer the FLAT tariff to another user account using a pairing code (in case of selling the vehicle).

CEM PIN Decoding for SPA/CMA Cars for Configuration Changes

For SPA/CMA cars without the Android infotainment system (iCUP/Google), it is now possible to decode the CEM PIN to modify configurations (e.g., remove speed limits, activate CarPlay, enable parking cameras, activate navigation, remote start, etc.). CEM PIN decoding is possible using VDASH and a compatible diagnostic cable - Volvo DiCE, Super J2534, Mongoose JLR, VXDIAG. Decoding may take 0 to 24 hours and can be paused and resumed from the same point at any time.

Remote Activation of Independent Heating from Your Mobile Phone Using VDD

Cold mornings are approaching! To warm up your car before driving, you can activate independent heating using VDD and your mobile phone from the comfort of your home. VDD includes a SIM card, so you can control your Volvo no matter how far away you are. Simply open the app and start independent heating or even turn on the engine. You can also check where your vehicle is parked, whether all doors are locked, the fuel tank level, service interval, and any diagnostic trouble codes in the car.
