V40 2013 Jap import radio frequency
-
Hi All. just bought recently this V40 from Japan. Not sure if it's P1 or P3. I want to change frequency of the radio. I don't really need to do something else. I can borrow genuine DICE interface. What version of the VDASH do I need to buy to make that happen?
-
You can use only the latest version of VDash, so just download and follow the instructions for CEM PIN decoding and then for the process and price of the conversion.

@joroartcorp thanks for your answer. I just wanted to learn the price first and compare that with dealership price and then see where I'd go.

Not normal... mine on V40 2013 took around 7-8 hours. What are you using as a pass through device and do you have the car battery connected to external power?
-
The process been finished. It took 1 day and 7 hours. Yes the car was connected to the external power supply. The pass through is genuine toyota mongoose. I am in New Zealand, may be that's why it took so long. Will the pin be added to the system automatically? Because the process is finished, but I didn't see the pin itself.
-
@filviktor the PIN will be added to the vdash database, but you won't get to see it.
If your V40 is a P3, you will most likely need to change the IHU with a localized used one. https://svdns.info/2023/08/27/so-youve-bought-an-import-volvo/ -
@T5-T6-Schnappi It looks like for the cars after 2014, my one is 2013, should be ok, at least I hope so.
-
So in this case just go to Car Configuration and select the option you want to do and start the process. It will show you then the price.

@joroartcorp I did that, but the price wasn't shown, everything was greyed out, there was no option available. I asked support team, they replied that I needed to buy a flat config which costs 129 euro. That is more expensive than getting it done at dealership. So I got it done at a dealership cheaper. I understand, probably, buying flat config gives me more opportunities, but I don't need those, the only thing I needed is changing the frequencies, which was cheaper at a dealership.
