Check to see if your throttle body has a white sticker on it. If so (and you are having idling problems), you might be able to get a new one free under warranty.

thank you for the heads up vegasjetskier, i checked it has a yellow sticker on it. It is idling great, the 2 issues drivers window not going down(from reading possible regulator piece but im still trying to figure how to get it out) and an ac issue which I am about to check. I am fortunate, ive had about 30 cars & this is my first volvo and I am hooked!
