s60 reduced performance

Post by ingchr »

As my question seems to have dissapeared. Please can you someone advise me what the issue might be with my 2001 reg s60. When it gets warm the reduced power performance error appears and then I lose all power. The engine will idle unevenly just before it cuts out or if I am on the move it as if it is missing on one of the plugs.

Go to a Volvo dealer and have them pull the codes
Most probably a bad throttle body (ETM)
