Re: 2006 XC90 V8 stalling & misfiring

Long overdue update on the issue: Volvo spark plugs from the dealer and an OEM crankshaft position sensor has solved my misfire and stalling. I have not had those issues again since it was repaired 2 weeks ago (although I was out of town for a lot of it, but the issue was extremely consistent & ...

Re: 2006 XC90 V8 stalling & misfiring

The maf needs to be unplugged before the car is on, not unplugged once it is on. Obviously something is off and it is bankrupting you. Looks like a lot has been replaced. Have you tried simple stuff like pulling the ECU computer and reseating it? What about disconnecting the battery cables and tryi...

Re: 2006 XC90 V8 stalling & misfiring

I had a mobile mechanic come over because I am sick of not seeing what is being done. He plugged in his big Pegisys computer and I saw all the codes that have been stored. Past Codes: BCM: C0045-01 Brake Pressure Sensor B - General Electric Failure U0428-29 Invalid Data Received from Steering Angle ...

Re: 2006 XC90 V8 stalling & misfiring

Hi there, I highly doubt that you can burn a cat that fast, and would like to suggest replacing the MAF sensor and the thermostat also add some injector cleaner to fuel. but the best option will be to find someone with Vida Dice or take it to the (stealer) as you might be putting in money chasing t...

Re: 2006 XC90 V8 stalling & misfiring

a quick update I ran a test run, at about 8 miles after resetting light, the car stalled with the AC on at a light, but immediately picked itself back up. As I made the turn, it started flashing CEL and so I pulled over and stopped. When I started it back up, the code was gone. I drove it to the pla...

2006 XC90 V8 stalling & misfiring

Hi all, I posted a thread about 9 months ago about a car I had just purchased. I am still fighting with the car, and wanted to update the information and hopefully gain some new insight. The car is still misfiring, it seems to do it in extreme temperatures only. I stopped checking codes basically al...

Re: 2006 XC90 Nightmare

UPDATE: Just went & had the codes pulled down the street since we hadn't since it first came on 2 days ago (Sunday morning). I was surprised to see misfire codes in cylinder 2, 3, 4 & 7 - any particular reason why it would be those cylinders? It also had the P0300 code. the other thing is al...

Re: 2006 XC90 Nightmare

Quick update, drove about 80-90 miles before CEL came back on, had it pulled & only shows the cat. Have had no trouble driving besides some high speed shaking, but misfires are gone, and any other codes that I've had haven't come back. The plan is to get an emissions waiver since the money has a...

Re: Emissions code PO430 - Bank 2 Catalytic Converter Effici

I know this is an old post, but just trying to see what ended up happening. I did a round of cataclean in fuel, seafoam in fuel & in vacuum line, and the code won't go away. Also replaced two O2 sensors on bank 2. Thanks
