MY 2001 VOLVO S-80 SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER AND CAME TO A STOP AND WOULD NOT RESTART. THIS OCCURRED IN SEPT. 2003. THE DEALERSHIP, BEACH VOLVO IN MYRTLE BEACH, SC, WANTED OVER $600 TO REPAIR THE AUTO SINCE IT WAS BEYOND THE 50,000 MILE WARRANTY. IT HAD 60,000 MILES AT THE TIME. AFTER A LENGTHY DISCUSSION WITH VOLVO AMERICA, THEY AGREED TO SPLIT THE COST BETWEEN MYSELF, THE DEALERSHIP AND VOLVO AMERICA. THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED. ON 12/05/05 THE SAME THING HAPPENED. THE CAR NOW HAS 82,700 MILES. IT IS BEING LOOKED AT BY BEACH VOLVO AT THIS MOMENT. *NM

I OWN A 2001 VOLVO S80. I HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE MODULE NOT RESPONDING TO THE THROTTLE INPUTS AND SURGING AT IDLE. IT WOULD SOMETIMES KILL THE CAR WITHOUT WARNING WHEN COMING TO A STOP (LOSING POWER-STEERING WHILE IN TURNS) OR MAKE THE CAR LUNGE FORWARD UNEXPECTEDLY. THE LUNGING FORWARD HAS ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENTS AT INTERSECTIONS. I'VE BEEN LUCKY FOR NOW, BUT I WILL NOT LET MY WIFE DRIVE THE CAR WHILE IT IS DOING THIS BECAUSE SHE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR WITHOUT POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. I TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIR AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE MODULE, AND THEY NEED REPLACING AFTER A WHILE, SO I REPLACED IT. 4 MONTHS LATER, I'M EXPERIENCING THE SAME IDLE PROBLEMS AS WELL AS THE LUNGING PROBLEMS. I AM BEING TOLD THAT IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE THROTTLE...
