ETS Light - ETM failure -> Volvo US admits to problem.
For all of you with 1999 to 2001 Volvo 70's who (like me) have suffered ETS lights coming on, and expensive (£800+) Electronic throttle module failures, it would appear that Volvo North America has finally admitted to this being an initial design problem, and has extended the warrenty on the ETM to 10 years / 200,000 miles.
(http://www.vexedvolvo.com for all the details). This obviously comes as no consolation to anyone in the UK who has already forked out big money for a replacement unit, and then discovers (as I have found) that the replacement unit can fail within 10,000 miles. Short of opening a can of worms here, since I'm waiting for an official response from Volvo UK on this one, I'd like to gather as much information from users on this forum of their own experiences with respect to this problem, so I can hand a complete file to the relevant parties and consumer organisations, in the hope that we can achieve a similar outcome here.
