Frequently asked questions about U042D

What does U042D mean?

Invalid Data Received from Active Vibration Control Module. The control module registered the fault condition described as "Invalid Data Received from Active Vibration Control Module".

Is U042D generic or manufacturer-specific?

U042D is a generic OBD-II code: it has the same meaning on every make and model that follows the SAE standard.

Can TuningBot remove U042D at file level?

Not guaranteed. Powertrain (P) codes can be reliably disabled in the ECU calibration, but body, chassis and network codes depend on the specific control unit and how the fault is implemented - some can be handled, some cannot. Ask for a quote and our engineers will check your file and tell you, free of charge, whether U042D is removable in your case.
