    Just bought a 2001 V70 T5 estate as the latest in a very long line of
    Volvos. These have included 240, 340, 360, 740 & 940.I like the V70 a lot
    except for the poor turning circle but thats front wheel drive foe you. The
    question is can I permanently disable the interior movement sensors for the
    alarm system. Nearly everytime I leave the car parked it has got our dogs in
    it, if I forget to disable the interior movement sensors I get halfway
    across the supermarket car park then have to go back because the alarm has
    gone off. I know you can temporarily turn the interior movement sensors off
    with the button on the dash but can I turn them off permanently or should I
    get rid of the dogs?

    Answer:- train your dogs to behave themselves when in the car. They will
    respect you all the more when you return to the car and give them a reward for
    being well behaved.

    Cheers, Peter.

    The sensors are in the B Pillars at the top - just disconnect them
    from the loom inside the pillar. The alarm seems to work fine without
    them as mine did when they went wrong for a while...

    Agree about the turning circle, miserable when it comes to parking
    in limited space.

    Visit VVSPY.com for excellent advice from Swedish Volvo emploees,
    one of the best sites I have ever come across, quick and easy to navigate.

    Regards,
    Brian.
