All,
Lot's of problems and discussions around faulty ETM's. Even after the recal mine still acts up from time to time. I just cleaned mine and video taped the proceedure. Can't guarentee this will fix irregular idle issues, but it did in my case.
Hope this helps.

Mustang, thanks for the post. I would have made the dumb mistake thinking the bolts on top held the ETM!!! All well's with mine (so far) at 105K miles. I'm hoping the synthetic oil will make a difference. Anyhow, some forum members seem to think so. Now will the electronics hold up? My car went into service March 01, so I have about a year's warrenty left. After that, broken or not I'll probably go the aftermarket replacement part, so I know this is coming!

The Bosch ETM on 2002-2004 2.9L NA S80's are a whole lot better, and much easier to clean too.

Great video 
I am going to add this to the ETM thread pinned at the top of this forum.
The only critique I would have is the use of standard carb cleaner. That stuff has been known to kill a few ETM's. I would recommend only the Volvo cleaner or WD-40.
