I have the sensors available, so if it gets worse let me know and I'll sort you out with one.

For the record my V70 has done 195,000miles it used to do mainly motorway which means the throttle didn't wear out as fast, I know of school run mum cars getting less than 100,000 due to increased throttle use.
Hi TDIvolvo
I just wanted to know a little more about this sensor.
I seem to be having problems with the ETM and thus far have cleaned it out but not had the software upgrade yet.
basically on idle it seems to hunt slightly and have been told that it is probably the throttle control!
Forgive my ingnorance but the Throttle body that i cleaned out i believe is connected to the ETM is this right and if so is this the same part you are talking about, this contactless sensor?


I look forward to hearing from you.
