Hi:

I have a 2009 C70 in which I recently replaced the engine with one from a 2008 C70 with fewer miles... (My '08 body was the loser in a car vs. deer incident, I bought an '09 with a blown engine)

The 2008 Engine has always been running well but occasionally threw a misfire code on a couple of cylinders.

Recently, the "Check Engine" light came on so I checked with a Bosch U-Scan OBDII code reader (Bluetooth to phone) and suddenly a whole host of codes are being thrown:

• P0445: Evaporative Emissions System Purge Control Valve Shorted
• P0079: Exhaust Valve Control Solenoid Circuit Low (Bank 1)
• P0076: Intake Valve Control Solenoid Circuit Low (Bank 1)
• P0245: Turbo Wastegate A Solenoid Low
• P2419: Evaporative Emission System Switching Valve Control Circuit Low
• P2401: Evaporative Emission System Leak Detection Pump Control Circuit Low
• P0497: Evaporative Emission System Low Purge Flow
• P0102: Mass Or Volume Air Flow Circuit Low Input

On top of that, the message window on the dashboard now displays the following message:
"Engine system service required"

A few questions:

First, and most important: Am I doing any damage to the car if I drive it before these are fixed?

I am hoping these are all related to a singular issue and that it is not too expensive a fix.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I should investigate first?

(P.S. I have a VIDA-DICE unit but it requires Windows 7 and IE9... IE Automatically updated to IE11 and now I can't get IE9 loaded again... so it's basically a brick, grrrr...)

Thanks!

 

The original W7 SP1 disc came with IE8 as I recall, I also believe there was a compatibility mode in 10/11 which could do IE5 or IE8 (I used to set it in HTML, xua-compatible=IE6,7,8). Try F12 (developer tools) and set it to IE9 to see if that fixes your problem.

did you clear the codes to see what returns? My gut is they are all related to an issue with the Evap system and it may be creating a vacuum leak leading to a lean mix.

 

Did you ever resolve all of those CEL codes. I am having the same ones except for P0497.
