Followed up...it IS possible. They sell the needed ecu software to swap the geartronic xc70 to manual.
It comes with one of their tunes... I'll be most likely getting their 1st level "orange" tune...

I'm gonna go ahead and bump this for a reason.
Last weekend while pumping gas near my buddies' house in San Diego, I randomly met/chatted with a guy who has a 02' XC70 which he's sucessfully swapped...
Wow, your car looks so clean. Is it a US spec?
omg yes, Yes, YESSS
Transmission #2 is on its way out.
My dad is dead set on manual swapping the car.
Chilled man almost did it, but has it figured out now.
Also, IIRC, ipd figured out a tune for the swap as well....
760 area code? are they here in San Diego? Either way - cool idea but, seems pretty pointless to me.
This car is NOT a true off-roader. That's the sad reality that most of you guys must face.
It's...
@Peacock: That's a clean looking XC! Liking the steelies, did you get those European market hubcaps for it too?
Always liked those.
The 2002 model definitely deserves a poor rating. When we compared out 1992 245 to our 2002 V70XC in regards of maintenance expenses, the XC literally has cost our family four times as much to...
I think the OEM Accessory mud flaps are smexxy. Been rocking them on the family XC for nearly a decade (family car=tossed around by everyone).
When I had the car down with me at school last spring...
This makes me eh so happeh
^ I'm sure we in the States all still hate you .... and your optional manual tranny ... :(
Sick! I'll be watching this thread real close like.
Just an update. First off, yes, pinging noises/semi-late shifts are kinda normal in the xc70.
But about a month later, no problems from what I hear back home.
Decided to bring the 245 down with me...
This was encountered on my family's 02 XC70 2.4T (154,000 miles) last night while in San Fran..pretty thick fog.
Driving the car around, no hills, and getting the common 'jerking' late shifts and...
I'm starting to get mad at the lack of progress in this thread :D
Hahaha, you are asking about the functionality of a spoiler on the back of a notoriously problematic station wagon.
Also, why not do a quick google images search? There are tens of thousands of p2...
updates?
Haven't seen this car in years...lookin good, still breaking necks!
What's going on with this thang?
Hi guys.
I don't really come on here anymore.
Do you guys think that my 02' xc is capable of towing the other car, with a U-haul car dolly or something similar?
...
Well actually, I get that too. The loud, deep sounding vibration at cruising speed, during low revs.
I believe the local dealership said it was the axle shaft.
The car just had its 135k service a...
The car was 'diagnosed' today with having a bad driveshaft... any thoughts?
Hmm. Well The car was taken to the local stealership and the lock motors were all replaced, wish I had seen this before and told pops. Feel bad for the guy, he's out $1300 for the 135k service. :o
anyone? locks are still messed up.
:(
Problems have come up on the 02' V70 XC.
When one locks the doors (using both remote and keyhole), everything locks sans the tailgate and two rear doors.
They will close only manually.
Then when...
