1. We noticed that car idled irregularly at stops and seemed like it was going to stall sometimes. We were coming up on 60,000 mile service interval & thought that at that appointment we would have them adjust. 2. Feb 2005 - we drove car out of resid. Development onto 2 lane road & car lost power, the check engine light came on, we were able to get to the top of the hill 500 yards after we turned out on road. At top of the hill we cut the car off to see if it would run better after re-starting. It took a few minutes to get it re-started (I had to push the accelerator down aggressively). The car computer said we were in "limp mode" and we drove at a very slow speed especially up hills to the first fuel station. We shut off the car for 10 minutes & got some fuel. After this the car ran ok but the check engine light was back so we called our dealer. 3. We drove the car 1 hour to dealer and they said the etm needed to be replaced. The invoice also says they replaced the accelerator. We don't have the old part. Wish we did. *note-on June 2 (with 61,000 miles) on a trip with family (2 small children) the car was running fine but just north of charlotte, nc at dark the car lost power in the middle of I-77s and we had to pull over to the emerg. Lane. For 15-20 minutes we tried to start the car thinking the computer might reset. Everytime we tried to start it seemed like it was going to start (not like battery failure) but then it would just shut off immediately. It finally started and we drove to the hotel with no problem. Next morning we took to nearest dealer - university Volvo. They ran diagnostic at a fee and found ecm codes 6806 (turbo control syst. ) - 904d (fuel pedal sensor) - 981a (control module fault) but faults were no longer present so they said there was nothing to do. Our home dealer - charlottesville Volvo looked at the car when we got home and they couldn't find any problems.
