Re: Volvo S70 '99 Cruise control surging / pulsating, headache!

I had the same issue with my 99 S70. The problem was a broken reluctor ring. I noticed you replaced them but might be worth checking again.

Re: 1999 S70 Cruise Control, Pumps the Gas Pedal

SOLVED: This was caused by a broken reluctor ring on the front axle. Parts were covered under warranty from previous repair (Oreilly Auto Parts). $130 labor to replace the axle. This also solved my issue with abs brake deployment on dry pavement.

Re: 1999 S70 ABS Problem

Replaced by a Volvo specific repair shop. Not sure if it was a remanufactured module. Seems to me it was.

Re: 1999 S70 ABS Problem

Do you recommend replacing the entire axle, or try to remove and replace the ring. I’m leaning toward replacing the axle because the cv joint on that side has a lot of miles on it.

Re: 1999 S70 Cruise Control, Pumps the Gas Pedal

Your right, the pedal does not move, but the cruise constantly accelerates / decelerates back and forth to maintain speed. It’s super annoying.

1999 S70 Cruise Control Surging, solved with new axle and ABS ring

My 1999 S70 non-turbo, base, (240K miles) has an issue with the cruise control. It will set and hold speed, but it pumps the gas pedal really bad. I have a rebuilt Xemodex ETM with about 140K miles on it. When the original ETM failed, I had no cruise at all and dash lights on. Could the ETM be going...

1999 S70 ABS Problem

My 1999 S70 non-turbo Base (240K miles) has an issue with the ABS system going off on dry pavement. Mostly when turning to the right into a parking spot, but also when driving straight ahead.

1999 S70 Non-turbo - Cruise Control Fluctuates

The cruise will set and hold speed, but it constantly fluctuates up and down. Has a Xemodex throttle body replacement. Could this be a vacuum leak?
