S80 Emission System Service Required Reset

RE: S80 Emission System Service Required Reset
I guess that is why so many of us opt to perform our own brake service and use premium parts at that (I know TECH, you swear by the Volvo pads). As to replacing the oxygen sensor.............what's the big deal? They do not last forever and eventually you will need one so.........replace it! That job is also a DIY project thereby saving the $'s. It simply amazes me how some of the members quibble about the cost of replacing parts on their auto or the price that the dealer charges for service! If you want "inexpensive", then buy a Chevy for God's sake!

Purchase a Chilton's manual at your local auto parts store. The 70 series is 'part number 72302'. they are very inexpensive and have a plethora of information and help for you.

Where can I get some diagrams on checking/replacing the rotors and pads? I think that would be a good project for me to work on. I had better be sure of myself though or I won't be driving anywhere anytime soon.

Im not sure if they make a chiltons yet for the S80.
Look on E-bay for the Vadis program. That will tell you how to do it.

RE: S80 Emission System Service Required Reset
Well, I picked up the car today and replacing the front oxygen sensor, as per diagnostic code P0135, Volvo ECM-2110, has fixed the 'Emission System Service Required ' light.
My car is UK spec. 2.4 litre non-turbo petrol S80, so it only has one front and one rear oxygen sensor.
This was done at the same time as the 90k miles service and whilst resetting the air bag message.
However, the handbrake used to engage firmly after about 3 clicks, now the handbrake comes up much higher and needs about 9 clicks to engage properly.
I'm taking the car back as clearly this is not right. The workshop is an independent so I suspect they may have made some kind of mistake whilst checking the condition of the rear brakes.
Can anyone suggest what they may have done wrong?
Thanks!

Rotors and Pads
E bay is worth a look new rotors and ceramic pads ex USA are advertised at $160 NZ with free shipping. Just use a jack and do one wheel at a time.
