    @gamaz if this is still interesting for you. Your donor part should have a white backside (hardware gen. 1) and should come from a donor car with a non-VEA engine and automatic transmission. TFT DIMs with black backside (gen. 2&3)are not fully compatible with your car and might not work as expected.

    @SKanev that looks slightly burned. A professional flush would be the way to go, but based on your specific shifting issues, I think your valve body needs a rebuild or replacement. I just had a talk with a retired Volvo tech, and his reply after describing your specific problem was short and simple: "get a new valve body, everything else is a waste of time and money". Your symptoms are most probably the result of worn out or even cracked valve bores in the valve body. This seems to be a known problem especially with Gen.1 TF8Xs like yours.
    If you're keen enough for this, you can also try to readjust your clutch control valves as described here but that is something I wouldn't do by myself.

    Hello,

    I'm a paying VDASH user (CONFIG subscription, about 500 PLN, valid until 28.09.2027). On 27.09.2026 I opened a helpdesk ticket. Since then – over 5 weeks – the only replies I've received are automated messages about how many tickets are in the queue. Nobody has looked at my case.

    It's hard not to notice the contrast: the payment was processed instantly, but support for a paid product is nowhere to be found. For a tool sold to workshops and professionals, this is simply not acceptable.

    I expect:

    A real answer to my ticket from 27.09. A fix or clear explanation of why the write is reported as successful but not applied.

    Thank you.

    @sizan the donor CCM needs to have the same hardware number and buttons as your current CCM, and you need to clone the software from your old module to the donor part. Additonally you might need to run some diagnostic commands like LIN discovery or damper motor adjustment, if the swapped in part doesn't work as expected. This might require VIDA as Vdash still lacks certain diagnostic commands.
