Hello, I have an 06 xc90 2.5T, and the last two days the message anti skid temporarily off, or service required will come and go. It has 118,000 miles and I'm sure it may be time for an upgrade, but not really in that position. Has anyone had this issue???

 

I think, Steering wheel position sensor is faulty.

 

Most common issue with those is a faulty clock spring. Might be something else so you need to get it properly diagnosed.

 

Now when I am accelerating, it's randomly stalling in short bursts and then runs fine. I have an appt tomorrow to get it diagnosed. Have a hard time trusting the dealer, so any input would be appreciated

 

My '06 XC90 V8 has the "anti skid service required" shown in the on board computer display and the dealer told me it is due a faulty pressure sensor in the brake hydraulics. He also told me the ABS and the stability control will not work properly if this messsage is on. Does anyone have any information about this?

 

Mine has the sensor issue too. It is the YAW rate sensor that causes the anti-skid problem. The part itself is more than $300 and dealer wants to charge a total of $600 to do the job.

 

I had this exact message over the years since I purchased it new in 2006. Dealer has replaced the ABS module each time, which happened twice. Each would last about a year and a half. Recently it went again, turns out the hydralic brake pump was bad and causing these to fail. Since the pump was replaced this message hasn't returned. Might want to look into it at least.

 

Following on my last message: I had one of the two identical brake pressure sensors replaced (it was tested as signalling ouside of specifications) and the message is gone. It turned on again briefly one week afterwards, but it's been a while and it looks OK now. Since then I drove a couple of times on very slipery terrain and I could feel the stability control and antiskid system working right.

 

try parking with wheels turned one way or the other a few times. that will often cause the clock spring issue to appear when it's bad.

 

got the same message on our 05 xc90 2.5t with 165k miles now. damn it, sounds expensive.

 

 

mine did the same thing for over a year. i have a 05 xc90 2.5t with 218k. i replaced the Fuel pressure sensor ($20 and did it myself) and it stopped doing that completely. definitely worth the fix

 

I know I'm late to the party here, but I just had this issue yesterday with my '09 XC90 V8.
I've also had a small clunk emanating from the front left during low speed parking manoeuvres. This is after having replaced the entire front suspension in January (top bearing, struts, lower control arm, ball joint and sway bar links).

At the behest of my lovely lady, I borrowed my mates hoist and checked my work.
Everything was tight, so I checked the brakes... all good there.
Then I noticed something - the ABS sensor ring (tone wheel) was further out of the hub on the left hand side!
so I checked the hub nut, which was loose and undone about 1 inch!

A bit of loctite 243 and a few "ugga duggas" of the rattle gun and all the problems are fixed!
