Guest Andy Vodopija Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 I have a 2000 S70 - Upon deceleration at lights/stops, at idle (in park) if the engine is reved up, on the deceleration it goes below idle and shuts off. Engine starts fine and seems to idle fine. Running speed is fine, no miss firing. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BtownVolvo Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Your O2 sensors might be going bad because it sounds like your engine is being flooded. Just throwing that out there.` Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 how do i know if I'm part of that recall. Last time i took it in for an oil change at the volvo place, they didn't flag it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamjjohn203 Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 If it's not throwing a ETM code then it's time for stage 0.....Fuel filter, plugs, O2 sensors, my car had an issue which I thought was ETM, but no codes. It would shut off but not long enough to kill it just blackout and reset....scary, and died twice right after start. I replaced the fuel filter and it hasn't happened since. Good luck!

Guest Guest Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 thanks everyone. I changed the fuel filter and drove it. still shut off.I then changed the spark plugs, still shut off.I looked at the o2 sensors but something told me that wasn't it.finally caved and took it to the dealership.It was a clog in the throttle body. something the mechanic said needs done every 30,000 miles. who knew?!anyway, not too pricey 135 dollars. Runs great now. Thanks all!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmelviØØ7 Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 I thought that was warranty work?!?!Sometimes if it is just a cleaning, depends on the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ihatespeedbumps Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 If the car has less than 200k ETM replacement, cleaning and diagnosis should be covered under warranty. I would call the dealership back and start asking questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
