Quoted me £337 to replace gas filter and throttle position sensor, clean throttle housing and adjust pressure. I presume this is the dreaded ETM is it? They told me that by doing the above work they could not guarantee the fault would be cured. They did say it usually sorts problem out!! Car had been giving trouble switching over to petrol every thirty secs so I was having to continually switch it back to gas. |

Anyone any further on with this now?
Is there a 'standard' way of getting any discount/volvo involement in this? Looks like my car is in need of a new ETM now (90k, 2000 V70 T5) so I'm keen to explore all money saving avenues! Local dealer has quoted £300 fitted so far... |

Surging on/off acceleration
Hi all
I have a 2003 registered S60 2.4T with similar symptoms e.g. when accelerating hard the acceleration is very on off. Its not there all the time but seems to be getting worse. Info I saw seemed to say only up to 2002 models are affected but could this be my fault too? Car has only done 67k miles!

Volvo UK are unbelievable, Given us all the Finger, At least US have sorted it
Mine went on my 2001 V70 T5, Had the soaftware, and now trying other ETM's and sensors, Have some success for a week or so, then its back to limp mode again every few miles, or sometimes it'll do 20 before dropping Surely there must be a way to deactivate the limp mode with software, as when its running its going great! Anyone know any hacks yet?? Bring back the throttle cable!! Thanks! |

got a used ETM to replace my blown one. got it on, works perfect except for one glitch-does not keep idle steady. All codes got erased, revs up smooth, very nice sound, OBD comes with no faults.
seems to be a software upload to make new ETM compatible with current ECU. Any ideas other than a dealer jobby? Not really wanting to invest into Vida/DiEC tools myself. thanks! |
