There are two sensors under the car, at the right side. You'll see them if you look behind the wheels. It's fairly obvious which is the sensor.

Have the links holding the rear wheels checked. Don't know for sure what they are called in English, but for a 2008, it seems likely that the bushings may be bad in some of the rear wheel links.
You can turn off voice guidance separately. The volume of the voice you otherwise adjust easiest when it's speaking.
Other sources, like your iPhone, should normally be muted when the navigation is...
Same here. I've had a car with such a warning system. By the time the pads were worn enough to motivate a signal, the system no longer worked.
I check my pads each time I change between summer and...
At least in Sweden, the front fog lights are replaced by day running lights of LED-type. Since the front fog lights didn't do much good anyway, this is an improvement. Saves burn time on the Xenon...
Bi-Xenon lamps are adjusted automatically by the car. For the car to know where to, there are sensors on the front and rear axle, on the right side. If any one of them aren't in the right spot,...
Looks like you do have an idea, doesn't it?
The principle is the same, but the most common type here is mechanical.
Similar to my experience, after an oil change in the gearbox after 120000 km. Volvo do indeed recommend gearbox oil changes for cars doing regular and heavy towing, as well as for cars where Volvo...
That's what it basically comes down to. European minds tend to work the opposite way, like "OK, so we got this working now. How can we make it work a little better?"
I know that even today many...
During a week spent in West Sacramento, CA, I took the chance to look more closely at all trailers I saw on the roads.
What has been claimed in this thread is indeed true. The design of trailers in...
The closing button at the bottom of the tailgate is only powered when the sensor switch in the lock signals that the tailgate is open. Thus it seems to me that you have a malfunction inside the...
What's the rating for the T6 engine in North America? Here it's specified as 304 or 329 hp, depending on version, but that's with 95 octane fuel.
The one I have is an older model, called Comtesse. It's not produced any longer, but is reasonably similar to today's Vivaldi 560E. You can tow more or less everything shorter than seven meters from...
But that's a European design. Has it's heritage from the same company as mine (Tabbert).
What I meant about the chassie is mainly the axis design. Suspension and shock absorbers are essential for...
As a side note, I just had some information exchange with a Swede who lives most of the time in Australia. They seem to be stuck in the same reasoning downunder, probably because the available...
That's not possible in my car without also disabling the front sensors. If there's one time when they are really helpful, it's when reversing with a trailer. Then it's easy to forget that your nose...
To get full integration with the car's other electronic system, a TRM (TRailer Module) must be installed. It connects to the communication bus system in the car upstream and to the electric socket at...
I see. Well, it looks like they aren't designed correctly for being towed by a car. Looking at the chassie, they also seem to have a very simple axis and perhaps also lack brakes?
Yes, trailers sold here (I'm located in Sweden) typically are designed like that. The trailer on this image I've towed too. Heavy to pull and a lot of air resistance, but still no problem to move...
I assume you are based in the US? Towing after cars is not too common there, compared to towing using pickup trucks. A pickup truck designed for towing usually have a rear axis design that's more...
General scan tools usually only understand emission related codes (typically from engine and drive train).
This message is never related to any error code. It's computed based on recommended driving distance or elapsed time, whichever comes first. Some cars also evaluate a certain number of running hours...
It turns off by itself, but the timeout is pretty long.
What's the problem?
My XC70 specifies max weight on hitch 90 kg, max gross trailer weight 2100 kg.
You simply balance the trailer so that 2090 kg is resting on the wheels, 90 kg on the towing...
