Hi Jeff

What was the Idle like? - Mine seems a bit "hunty" - not much but now & again it drops & goes up - Just sorted the ETM & it drives fine, maybe i'm being a bit picky but the old phase 1 (2000) is rock solid at 750rpm...

looking at the data on Vida the Maf is doing somthing but i dont know if it's the right somthing or not.... maybe i'll swop it out with the one from the other car....

I cleaned mine with carb cleaner & then put a spot of engine oil on the shaft where it enters the body at each end (ooh-err!)
I know that volvo have a special ETM cleaner - so my way may be the wrong way (!)
Find sombody local with DICE - theres a dedicated ETM test (checks the sensors against each other) - that should tell you if you have any impending issues...

......on another note i've just discovered that the alarm siren module is stopping the sun roof from working WTF!!!!!
