Well I have a clean MAF but it is still not acting right. I found another post on here that describes what mine is doing better than I did. This is the post Oct 05. "When I first start my car (car details at bottom), wait a few seconds for it to stabalize its RPMs, then shift it into any gear, ...

Thanks! I unplugged the MAF sensor and drove it a little ways and it was driving like it should. It would act like it was wanting to stall when stopping but never did. Can I replace the sensor or do I need to replace the MAF itself. Would it hurt to ride with it unplugged until the new one arrives? ...

99 Volvo S70-Turbo, 152000 miles. Sputtering at start

I have a 99 S70-Turbo that will hardly run at start. I can push the gas and it acts as if it is not getting any. It sputters and kinda hops down the road. If I left it warm up for approx 5 min it runs ok. I have also noticed that it has a puff of dark smoke when cranking. Does anyone have any ideas?...

Whinning noise under hood-99 Volvo S70 Turbo

I have a noise coming form under my hood. It seems to be coming from the passengers side. The best way to describe the noise is that of the motor on the antenna sounds when going up. The noise starts when you first turn the key before turned over. Any idea what this could be? Thanks in advance. Mich...

I know from experience on Nissian that if the wrong key or an unknown object is put in then the car has to go to the dealer to have the anti-theft device reprogramed so it is very possible that it is the same with Volvo. Be sure to take all keys to the car because they also have to be reprogramed. A...

Update.
I just got a call from the mechanic. He has not had a chance to look it over 100% but he said it looks like its more in the fuel system then Turbo. Lets hope its just the fuel filter not pump.

**Update** I found the hose size not any help from Volvo service. But that did not fix the problem. Had to have car towed. He seems to think my Turbo went out..Will update you later when I know more. The only good thing that might have come out of this is that maybe I found a mechanic that can help ...

Thanks for the diagram. It would be # 35. Kinda looks like a pin that Goes into the lock inside the car.

Also CarVolvo I sent you a message to see if you possibly have another part I am in need of. Please let me know.
