Idle drop & intermittent misfire
Hi,
First time Volvo owner and first post I have a Volvo V70 2.4 manual 2004 model. I’m having 2 issues that could be related. 1. When pull up to traffic lights, the idle drops a bit too low for a few seconds before correcting itself. The car does not stall, but the steering wheel shakes and its a little annoying. 2. It feels as if the car misfires intermittently, often at motorway speed. Perhaps every few minutes or so, very subtle but something is not quite right. I’ve had the car put on the OBD2 scanner, but there were no error codes found Any tips on what this could be? |

After reading around I'm suspecting this could either be a ETM or MAF issue. But problems related to this seems to be on older Volvo models, not the 2004 model that I have.
Is there an easy way to diagnose issues with these parts? |

If it's a petrol car my first thought would be to clean the throttle body.

I'll give cleaning the throttle body a go this weekend I think. The fuel filter was replaced at the last service. Thanks for the tips
