All,

It has been 4 weeks now since I've finished my head swap and cleared my computer of any codes which turned off my MIL. The good news thus far is that it hasn't come back on so I declare the swap a success!

However, we've driven the car almost everyday and have taken it on 2-3 very lengthy, multi hour trips and still NOT all of my readings from my OBD2 scanner read ready.

I have till the 22 of July before I have to apply for an extension to my emissions test.

Any thoughts on how to get this moving along faster before the 22nd of July when I go and file an extension?

Thanks in advance,

Matt

    Because Volvo code is stricter than most other car makers, even California allows these cars to pass with one or two systems 'not ready'. I believe O2 sensor and EVAP system needs to be in the ready state, but I live in a no testing state so I don't care.
