Sinbad Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 So the T4 has started idling erratically... Stalling at traffic lights, etc. CEL came on, but has since gone off again.The good ol' Carchip reports it as a P0107 which I think is Volvo-ese for Excess Funds in Bank Account, Please Visit your Dealer. Of course this is an incorrect reading Any easy fixes, or am I in for a new MAP sensor? Where is it hidden in my car?Thanks!S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibim Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 I wonder if it's just clogged up? Maybe got something to do with that 'foreign object' you have mysteriouly in your car... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinbad Posted September 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 What foreign object? The one that has caused the turbo to become mysteriously mangled in such a way that only a 16T will replace it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kibim Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 The very same ... intake anomalies :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinbad Posted September 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 It says MAP reading lower than expected - see the MAP is already pining for the 16T.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T5BRICK Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 i can't remember what my CEL code was but it sounds like you need a MAP(i thought it was MAF, but same difference). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T5BRICK Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 my CEL was P0103 "MAF or VAF circuit high input" but my symptoms were the same.http://volvospeed.com/vs_forum/index.php?showtopic=26593&hl= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinbad Posted September 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 i can't remember what my CEL code was but it sounds like you need a MAP(i thought it was MAF, but same difference).←MAP = manifold absolute pressureMAF = Mass Air Flow.Different sensors... Hopefully it's mAP not MAF, as MAF costs 2.5x what MAP costs...It started messing around again today, after seeming to be OK for a couple of days. Seems that if I push the car hard, when I next stop it stalls and I get the CEL...Gonna stop by the dealer tomorrow morning and pick up a MAP and get them to clear codes for me :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinbad Posted September 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Well one trip to Volvo later and I am still alive... Barely.Seems that all my fiddling and checking connections had upset the EMS a bit When they pulled codes for me, they got MAF, Spin sensor, UNKNOWN EFI FAULT, plus a couple of others. So I got them to clear, took the car for a quick drive to replicate the problem, and sure enough got a CEL through the tried and trusted method of redlining it...Back onto the handheld scanner - UNKNOWN EFI FAULT. So they eventually agreed to plug the thing into the VADIS cart for me. MAP sensor (phew). New one is in, car seems to be right as rain. Oh and VADIS also picked up a DSA problem - torque reduced, etc - and they told me it was probably because of my single blown brake light!? the :monkey:s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
