Buy new ETM from xemodex.com
I have looked on a replacement/new ETM from xemodex.com, everyone have any experince with this companey and how it works??
They are talking about some numbers they need, where do i find them???
IF YOU HAVE A NON-TURBO VOLVO (1999 – 2002) EXCEPT FOR S80, WE REQUIRE THAT YOU PROVIDE US WITH TWO SOFTWARE NUMBERS AND ONE DIAGNOSTIC NUMBER FROM YOUR ETM, PRIOR TO PLACING AN ORDER FOR OUR PRE-PROGRAMMED MODULES. AS MOST NON-TURBO MODULES TEND TO HAVE TWO VERSIONS OF SOFTWARE, THESE THREE NUMBERS HELPS US DETERMINE THE CORRECT SOFTWARE VERSION TO SEND OUT.

I just did my ETM last week and used the Xmodex ETM. For my instance, I mailed my old one in (which was working perfectly with 175K on it). I was just getting nervous about mine failing as I just retired and have planned several long trips. They quick turned my old one, and I had the rebuilt part in about 5 working days. The other way to do it is just buy one from them. To do that you provide them the VIN, and it will come pre-programmed. Mine was plug and play and performed perfectly out of the box. They recommend changing the mass air sensor when doing this, and I changed that out as well, even though mine looked perfect.
Toughest part of this job is the banjo fitting on the underside of the intake manifold and getting the plastic intake off and on the ETM. I pulled the manifold as I was going in to clean the PCV system as well. Not sure if you can pull the ETM without pulling the manifold, but it might be possible. To make getting the plastic tube off the ETM, heat it. I used an industrial heat gun and it made this part easy. A good hair dryer would probable work as well, just take longer.

Sorry for the delayed reply. I was waiting to run the car some before answering. Initially I had just started it to make sure it worked, but because I have an oil leak and needed to do a timing belt change, I held off. I still have a small oil leak but the rest of the work is done, and I was able to drive the car for a few miles. It runs the same as before, which is a GOOD thing, as the old ETM was working just fine!
Hi, I had xemodex.com fix my DIM last year, and was very pleased. Their tech support is great, and the DIM was out of and reinstalled in my car within 48 hours (using FedEx's fast shipping).
