I think the VCM is located in a different place in the XC90, but if you can get to it, it's an easy DIY job. Just make sure you depress the locking tab in the connector and the wire is easily disconnected..dont yank it! The genuine battery is quite expensive, but I tried an Ali express one and it as a dud. Having taken the battery pack apart, the cells are actually quite rare and hard to source, so not worth trying to rebuild the battery. You should be able to use orbit to confirm it is the VCM backup battery by using the ECU tools to read the battery voltage off the VCM module.
Where is the VCM module located on the XC60? I have a 2015 model year. My local mechanic was not sure where it was located and the dealer (40 miles away) was useless in explaining why the VOC service required message was even there.
