Thanks XeMODex!

Ok, someone from the ETM section confirmed there is no ETM on my S40 : "Your S40 has an old fashioned cable connecting gas pedal to the throttle, there is no ETM in it. Have the vehicle scanned and see what the codes are, my guess bad O2 or high fuel pressure." Could someone confirm I will...

So, I just bought a third hand Volvo S40 from 2001 petrol manual 1.8i, which would be absolutely perfect but for the foll...

I saw in Don's VEXED forum that only the v50, 70 and 80 from 1999 to 2002 had had this problem. And couldn't other defective parts be responsible as well? I have read about similar sy...

Sorry, just noticed I had made a double post...
