6:07 MOST = Media Oriented Systems Transport. This is a fiber optic standard used by Mercedes-Benz, Volvo and other cars. The previous generation fiber optic protocol was called “D2B”, back in the 1990s. “Remove MOST Security” means it will allow you to modify the MOST system, which is normally “SECURED” against tampering or modifications. Both D2B and MOST are set up as serial loops in the car - each device with fiber optics has 1 input and 1 output, in a loop. D2B was invented due to increasing levels of electronic noise in motor vehicles, also in consideration of future weight savings, rather than than using lots of heavy copper wiring. Weight savings and being able to handle increasing complexity were also the driving forces behind CAN bus systems.
I just finished installing my Subwoofer on my XC70 as well. Thanks for inspiring! And the videos are helpful.
Thanks for posting this series of videos, I've enjoyed watching them! Seeing these motivated me to put together a step by step video on my channel showing how to go the other route and install an aftermarket amp and sub in a P3 Volvo.
I really appreciate all you do with your channel for the Volvo and DIY community, you've put out a lot of top notch content!
FINALLY!! 😁😁😁 I FOUND THIS PART AFEER LAST VIDEO TO MY V70 BUT STILL WAITING FOR INSTALLATION MANUAL FROM YOU!!! MAAAANY THANKS 🙌🙌🙌
You are welcome!
Very Nice video ,you make the best stuff about Volvo on UA-cam. Keep up the Great work. Regards from Norway.
I have the XC60 with Premium sound and the factory subwoofer. This is indeed a very nice sound system. I enjoy it everyday. Well done.
Hi. Could you please share the part number of your subwoofer system? I’m not sure if the 30679574 & 30752993 will fit to my xc60 2010. Thanks
Thankyou very much for this. As always, your videos have been very informative and given me the confidence to do the same. I'm ordering a subwoofer now to do the same job. I also plan on (hopefully) doing the same install without running wiring into the cabin. I have the factory GPS navigation system in my car that no longer works, but it does have MOST optical to the rear of the boot. I will redirect this for the amplifier. I also plan on running the subwoofer wiring to a spare fuse location in the rear of the boot.
Thanks for the update and taking sharing the video, very tempting to install. The only STOP, other than finding a donor with a subwoofer is butchering cargo floor :) assuming this is the only way...I don't know how but my fleet has XC70 (D5) and V50 (T5) in the same colours... possibly come as a combo. :). Спасибо за разговоры за кадром:) жизненно...
If you don’t have an active satellite radio subscription I recommend you disconnect the power to the satellite radio and buy a MOST loop to bypass it. There’s a bug in the XM module firmware that they wake up and enter a high current state over and over draining the battery. I did the bypass to both the P3s in my family. Volvo wants 1hr labour and the firmware upgrade costs $$. A MOST loop bypass cable from Volvo only costs 15$ CAD. Loved watching the series into the Subwoofer! The take apart video was great to see too.
The optical cable he got to add the sub amp basically is a MOST loop. If he wants to leave the Sirius module out of the MOST circuit he could just remove the cable he added and connect the plug for Sirius module to the sub amp instead. Not sure how the CEM diagnostics reacts to this though, since there is a missing module that it will be probably looking for...
@@EarlLeeBird Yes, you are totally right to just remove that cable he added. The diagnostic tab in VIDA will report that the RDAR (XM) module is missing (no errors in the DIM or radio screen though). The options for XM 1 and XM 2 will still appear in the radio list, but selecting them does nothing. It's common for Volvo do bypass the RDAR with no repercussions.
@@atomikrobot300099 Good to know. I wish I knew this when I changed my amplifier - would have been wise to add the sub option at the same time and then just connect it later. Back then it was possible to change CEM configuration in Vdash with just small level account.
Awesome!!! Great job!!!👊👊
I once installed a subwoofer in my 2004 V70R: it was just plug and play.
Later, in my 2007 XC90 it was much more difficult, also with an optical cable to install. However it never worked properly.
Once again. Awesome. .
Great video! I just purchased a 2011 T6 XC70, looking at getting something similar. I can't believe how good it sounds already, I'm really debating getting a sub!
If you like your music get the sub. Wish I have added it sooner
Great Video
Glad I have the premium sound package
Aye, aye. I love it. Distracts me from the fact my utterly useless navigation system is a DVD player in my trunk.
The manufacturer of the subwoofer is Alpine.
I also tried whether it was possible to connect the subwoofer in a facelift Volvo XC70 (2012-2016) in this way.
Unfortunately, this is no longer possible there because Volvo has switched to a passive subwoofer and the active subwoofer does not emit any sound. Too bad.
The power supply could of come from the rear fuse boxes.
You a bit crazy 😜, many thanks for your help/video 🇷🇺🇨🇦🎶🇸🇪🇩🇪
Yuri, I really enjoyed both videos. What I really appreciate is your attention to details. You have great mechanical and electronic skills. I have always wondered if you are an Engineer? 🤔
Thx. Not an engineer ;)
Hello, you love your Volvo as I do😍. Inspired your sub project - I'll try to do the same on my 2011 V60 with PS system. Sub is on my hands, so left only to do wiring and software from VDASH. Optical cable on the way from Ali and I'm holding my fingers crossed😅 Thanks again for your pasion on your T6
pasidarei?
@@ignrnk softą šiandien susipūčiau(viskas reguliuojasi per "magą"), sūbas vietoje, dangčiai išpjaustyti... Liko tik optinis kabelis ir + su - 🤣
Kaip sekėsi pasidaryti, Gyti? Ir kur radote Pro versiją Vdasho?
Hi ! I did the same as you, but installing the entire Premium audio (Dynaudio) to my Volvo C70 Mk2. My problem was that the vin-chasis number was incompatible with the premium and subwoofer amp (CEM list) because I had the standard version of the car, so I had to buy a car amplifier with integrated DSP (which is better than I expected, because of the low power consumption, high and quality sounding, and lot of power). You was so lucky to make it work with the original amplifier, congrats. (you can also check my video upgrade tutorial from standard to premium sound in my channel :D)
Link your video here please for everyone
@@volvosweden ua-cam.com/video/ez5w5Dt5EmQ/v-deo.html ;)
can you share the link or model or your amplifier with intergrated dsp ? thanks
It was MatchUP 7DSP, by Audiotec FIcher @@propstoyou9792
Buy the normal version, without car brand, you will have the universal cables with it.
Any plans to do a video about the Volvo Dice system and how to use it ?
You seem to be very comfortable with it.
I would welcome a tutorial 😉
the standard sound in volvos make it seem like there is a subwoofer but there isnt and can still have enough power to shake your body
MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport) is a high-speed multimedia network technology optimized by the automotive industry. It can be used for applications inside or outside the car.

Thnx for another informative video!! Wonder if you could explain how to remove cam shaft and vakve cover seal for XC70 D5 (09). Was looking in VIDA for this procedure but not sure if this can be DIY project.
Thank you Yuri! How much was the pro account for Vdash? It doesn't make any sense that loading features should be restricted by account type. Or do you not have to pay for the changes you make when you have a pro account, instead of paying for each change individually?
Nice cat 🥰
That is amazing. The missing sub in my p3 S60 really made the door speakers work too hard to the point of popping during deep bass notes. Had to replace them with older Volvo door speakers (from the older Premium Audio) but still no replacement for a sub
There is no factory Sub for the S60. Right?
@@volvosweden yeah I don’t think there was one what I meant was it needed one/the system sounded like it was missing something, a sub... finally fixed on the SPA’s
@@volvosweden Do you thnk it's possible to fit this Sub in P3 V60? Mounting bolts seem to be there in the floor
@@craigbrett672 The problem would be software, the V60 never had the subwoofer, so unless P3Tool can add it (big risk of breaking something there), you can't add it in software.
Hei! Hva koster det å sjekke og hvis det er behov å bytte olje på gir-kasse og motor? På Volvo V70, 2002 model? Takk, Mvh.
Excellent video i enjoyed every minute of it especially when something goes wrong and you show it very genuine. Did u sound proof your basement? Do you get complaints from neighbours?
It’s a detached bungalow. I did soundproof the ceiling in the basement. Of course I don’t blast the music when someone is sleeping.
The neighbours join the party
MOST = Media Oriented Systems Transport
Congrats my friend...definitely very good sound...do oyu know if it´s possible to do it on a V50 T5 2009? tks for your video...
Yuri, I had the V8 at the meet this fall. I was wondering if you would want to do a video of changing the 4C with me. My 4C struts are toast and I’m going to be changing them in the spring anyway so it may be a good video to make together with Trav as well I’m sure.
Hey! For sure. Let’s plan.
Amazing. Can this be instaled in an 2011 S60 ?
That's an absolutely beautiful car. Iove the colours.
I'm looking to buy one of these, I've currently got the P2. Because I'll be doing a lot of long distance driving I'm trying to find one with the Premium Sound with the subwoofer and 6 disc changer. If it's only got a single CD player how possible is it upgrade to the 6 disc and subwoofer?
So if I get one thst
What the heck with pro account? All features were available with basic account, when did they change it?
You should hear my 08 s80 t6🤧😭 2 12s flexing the front and rear windshield
The cat should like I think 20hz. There is a channel from the UK. His cat on an Logitech sub, is the thumbnail.
Hello mate, i have installed factory subwoofer in my XC60, got it programmed via VDASH, so it appears in menu but actual subwoofer still dont work. it definitely worked on original car, would you be able to direct me what to look out? power is coming to subwoofer, all sound goes away when i unplug the the power from subwoofer. How do you know that subwoofer is working when you plugged it just to test it ? it doesnt make any noise, also there is no any light indicators on it to confirm it actually powered on. thanks in advance
Hello. I'd like to build my own bass in the floor in the hatch, it will be mabe with 4 pcs 10" for small enclosure and a separate amplifier (soundstream or Harman Tc-600). I have the performance stereo in my V70, and it has no preouts (I think?), so I must use a hi-level adaptor. Do you now where I can connect it? I have the orginal amp under the passenger seat. Or any better solution for me? Friendly Arne-Peder Flesvik :-) Love youre videos and thank you for getting me the parts for the hatch on my cars!! :-)
my volvo does not have a premium sound, will it be possible to run the sub?
With the Dynaudio System its just plug and play because the plug is already there in there trunk
Any ideas how to get pin to remove security Im at lost here
Good video. As a next step you should do the Premium Sound amplifier upgrade. It is super easy to do if you find the correct amplifer and already have the Small level VDash and Dice cable. It adds so much more in general compared to the High performance system, even with High Performance bass speakers and upgraded tweeters. For center speaker you can just add a small tweeter somewhere or set it as stereo instead of surround.
Edit: I noticed you needed VDash Pro licence to access the advanced configuration options. Did the d5t5 team give us another middle finger and change the required level to do these changes? Last I did this the already payed Small license was enough...
Do you mean upgrade to dynaudio speakers? Have you done the upgrade?
@@Johan-hv7hb You can upgrade only the amplifier. High Performance speakers are not that bad (except front tweeters that he has already upgraded to Hertz tweeters in one earlier video). I have added Dynaudio center speaker, mid range speakers in front doors and tweeters in rear doors + Hertz tweeters in front door - they add to the better sound but what adds the most is upgrading to the 5x130W Premium sound amplifier - it just has so much better sound clarity, even with FM radio that used to sound really bad - Im not sure why, maybe Volvo has the fm module integrated in the amplifer. At first I upgraded front Tweeters and then the amplifier. Later added some Dynaudio speakers.
@@EarlLeeBird I have the possibility to buy a complete dynaudio set, all the speakers, cables and amplifier, the works. I have high performance in my car already but an upgrade could be good. I am wondering about existing cabling in the car, what I can use or need to update to get dynaudio working. I also have navigation in the car from factory and I am wondering about the cable for the center speaker. I am guessing the existing cables in the door in the car to the door will be enough and the in the door updated so it can go from 2- way to 3-way. I have been searching the net for information about anyone that has done the upgrade buy it seems that it has not been done much.
@@Johan-hv7hb If you have High Performance and navigation then most of the wiring is there, only wiring you need is for front door mid range speakers - these will be connected parallel to bass speaker wiring so basically you can just cut them off donor car as long as possible and solder on - Volvo connects them same way in factory, they are same color wires and same connector as front tweeter cable. Center speaker cable is already there under the grille, connected to an empty connector. If you get the center speaker from same car, with navigation, you just replace the whole panel that has speaker. If you get it from car without navigation or from XC60 you can still use the speaker, but you need to carefully cut it off from the different panel and glue to your panel - same with speaker wires and connector pins - desolder wires from pins, pull pins out and insert to your panel's empty connector, then solder speaker wires again. For front door mid range speakers you need the screws and metal nuts/clips from donor door card as well, other speakers mount the same as your old ones. Amplifier is plug and play but needs coding to Premium Sound in Vdash or some alternative - very similar procedure as subwoofer coding in this video. If you write what car and what year is yours and the donor, I can maybe give some more helpful tips.
@@EarlLeeBird I will probably need wiring for back door with with clips for the tweeters also from the donor car. My car is 2008 by model and taken in use 2009 this also goes for the donor car. Both are v70 if that has some difference. Is this possible to encode in vida?
11:30 put some silicone grease on those plastic clips before reinstalling the floor.
Good idea
Yuri, my subwoofer finally arrived from Sweden (I'm in Australia) and I've installed it following your guidance. I'm just in the process of enabling this feature now only to find that VDASH appears to have changed since I last used it, and it appears like I'll need to purchase a 400 EURO license to turn the subwoofer on. Surely this isn't right, as it makes the task very expensive! Any thoughts?
that sucks....too much money for bass
Do you also have the Dynaudio/Premium amplifier? I see that you already have them software. But If not, I can only recommend installing it too even if you have just the high performance version and respective speakers without the center speaker. It makes a lot of difference and made my audio much better in my S80 V8 that came with high performance system as well. Luckily, my car came with the RTI so it's pre-wired for the center speaker.
However, I'm wondering if I can get a subwoofer in my S80 :)
Yes, it indeed does make a difference, but how did your amp hold up to this day, with HP speakers?
HP woofers in the doors are 2 ohms, while Dyns are 4, so after finding this one out I quickly bought a full Dyn set and replaced everything.
Hey yuri. Do you know of or have any wheels for an s80 like mine? I damaged one 18” in a pot hole this weekend and found one of my 17” winters is cracked when I put them on.
I don’t
Does anyone know if you can add a Volvo sub like this to any car with this type of head unit, say C30, S40, V50, etc...? And has anyone successfully installed one into a Volvo that did not has this option from the factory?
I have a 2007 S80, with the type of head unit in this video. It did not come from the factory with a sub, so I ended up installing an aftermarket one, which has been a great addition. If you're considering that option, I recently published a video on my channel going over how to successfully wire everything and get that done.
Please help, do I need to buy Vdash pro to do this or lite version is enough with some in app purchases? I bought subwoofer, connections, cables but the only problem is the software. 400 Euro is a lot. At Volvo dealer removing the MOST security costs 100 Euro but they can’t upload software because they say that it doesn’t exist and I can’t make it. Hardware costed me around 250 Euro so paying extra 400 Euro just to turn it on is a lot! Best regards from Poland
VDASH Pro is a must. But other option is to find some one with locally with VDASH Pro. I know some garages use the Pro version. I don’t believe Volvo does not have the software. Try another dealer.
@@volvosweden Thank you cery much! Best regards!
Hi i buy subwoofer without handle. where ca i buy subwoofer handle?
I can't find the moose?
We have a small problem with subwoofer installation.
We have ordered all the parts what we need, including subwoofer from Volvo.
Now we cannot locate the amplifier ! It isnt under the passenger seat.
Our Volvo is Summum V70 2011. Please can anyone help ?
Do you have to physically install subwoofer before loading software in vdash? Or it doesn't matter thanks
It does not matter.
Fiasco brother... I did everything as in your installation video. All VDASH steps (I bought a subscription with which you can change all possible configurations). The SUB adjustment appeared in the menu among other available adjustments, but it does not play. I tried resetting the CEM to factory settings. Then I "loaded" everything again, but nothing changed. Do you have any ideas what could be wrong??? please help me, because I put so much work and money and I got a flop🙈
Can you email me at volvosweden business@gmail.com and I can maybe help over the phone
@@volvosweden hi, I dont want to be obnoxious, but can you write just you got my e-mail and just need some time to help Me😇😇😇
Hi, did you get my email?
Is this possible to volvo s80 mk2
Technically yes. It’s not designed to be in the S80 and you will have to custom mount it and will lose trunk space.
You see that a lot in 18 year old ones cars ....
Too much modifications for a subwoofer !
I have the same original system in my V70 and is not bad ( my opinion ) ...
