Hi,

About 3 years ago I had the original (white label) ETM on my V70 2.3 T5 (2001MY) replaced by Volvo - at the then lower price of about £300 all in..

It fixed all the problems I had, even though some of the error codes were suggesting throttle pedal position faults.


Now, some 80k miles later, the replacement unit has gone the same way. I had read (on here I think) that the Yellow Label units were probably worse than the orginals....so I am trying to work out the best way forward. Volvo will not entertain any kind of claim or replacement - have checked with the dealer who fitted it.

The codes I am getting (from my PPC unit) are:
ECM 904d
ECM 958f

I can afford to have the car off the road for about a week or maybe longer, so options I see are:

1) Remove unit, send to volvodiagnostic.com for repair (Lukas) - I've checked and he can turn it round within a week.

2) Remove and send to xemodex in the States...may take a bit longer - but is their repair any better ?

3) go back to volvo for another unit.


Any ideas ? or other options I may have missed ?


Many thanks

Jon
