Pirated units can be tracked through data sent back through our central systems. Volvo can only support DiCE tools manufactured to our standards from SPX or those based on J2534-2 certifications. Most importantly, Volvo will not provide support to customers using these units. All of which will result in repair delays and customer dissatisfaction. Technically, the units are of much less quality and they have been proven to introduce diagnostics and fault tracing issues, as well as new problems into the vehicle. These units commonly cost between one half to two thirds the Volvo price, sometimes including an illegal version of VIDA. These units are mostly available from aftermarket sources and websites.

Since this is an informational / educational site, it should be noted that the links samlok listed are a business / sales website not related to Volvo, so full caveat emptor ('let the buyer beware') applies- make sure you do your research before clicking the links / purchasing from a non-Volvo site.
