I have an S80, never had a problem. It's possible the key battery has "expired". Try your spare key. What about the car's battery if it is not good there may not be enough power to allow the Key to function properly. Are you sure it is the proper key? Antitheft and security features may require help from a Volvo dealer!

SOURCE: deadlocked S80. Seats don't fold down. Keys in

hi there i presumed as you have told us that the back seats don't fold down that you have access to the inside of the car, if this is the case you could remove the backrest of the back seat and fish for the keys throw the holes in the back panel. regard John

SOURCE: I have a S80 Volvo 2000 model. I lost my spare key.

Pay the dealer the $300.00. I have been told it's worth it to have an extra set due to the computer communication of the keys with the ignition (not sure how it works exactly.) To re-key or get a new ignition costs like 1600-1800 dollars and takes approximately 10 days to even get the parts. I checked with a Volvo dealership in WA State. I am having problems with my ignition now and the keys won't come out or turn the last little click to be able to pull them out (but not all the time), also my car will turn on no problem (only have trouble getting keys out) my car just won'y go into gear, it seems it happens more frequently when it is below 55 degrees, even after the car temp guage has reached the half way mark. I have a 1999 Volvo S80 (I hate that car!)

SOURCE: automatic transmission liquid leaking volvo s80 t6 model 99

The most common source of a leak would be the torque converter seal, replacement of the seal requires the removal of the transmission.

P 0733 code what does that mean

You could be more specific with the issue:
  • Transmission type (Manual/Automatic)?
  • How did this issue appear?
  • Does the car change gears normally?
Your car seems to be an automatic transmission model?
So the fault code is "Gear 3 Incorrect Ratio"

This means that you may have:
  • Low transmission fluid level or dirty transmission fluid
  • Faulty or dirty shift solenoids
  • Transmission mechanical problems
  • Transmission hydraulic control circuit issue
