Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way to check the actual mileage on a 1997 850R. On my 1995 850 turbo I can get the mileage from the OBD1 under the hood. Is this possible on a 97? Can a code scanner get this out of the OBD2?

Thanks guys!

 

Yes it is possible, however, it is over my head and most dealers don't even know how.

Take both dash pads off, move the '97 cluster to the '95 and check it.

 

I am pretty sure you cannot get mileage out of OBD1 code reader, but share anyway. How? Same as the '97 even though it's early OBD2.
As far as the moving the clusters, LOL, for too many reasons!

 

I'm positive you can as I've done it physically on mine. It's not a reader, it's the OBD underhood diagnostic panel on 95 and earlier 850s.

Here is a how to: http://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/for...pic.php?t=6731

 

So there is no way to find out the actual mileage on a 1997?

 

I think the dealer can read it from the ECM on the 96 and newer cars from posts I've read but it would be best to call the dealer you're thinking of going to and find out for sure.
