V70XC 2001 misfire at idle and low revs

Post by musie66 »

Engine starts and idles smoothly for 3 to 4 minutes then runs roughly, idle speed 800 revs. When driving runs okay initially then develops hesitation as engine warms up. Sometimes CEL comes on and engine goes into limp home mode. No fault codes showing. I posted this previously and have now got a code reader and been a bit more specific in the description of the problem. 2001 XC70 UK spec 85000miles throttle body changed at 75000 miles. Help!

No fault codes means that it could be your fuel pump relay.
