During diagnostics, it became clear that the throttle body<\/strong> could no longer correctly report the throttle position to the ECU<\/strong>. This is a well-known issue on these Volvo models<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The throttle body works using a needle that slides over a contact strip<\/strong>, which digitally reports the throttle position to the ECU. The unit is equipped with two of these position sensors<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, these contact strips wear every time the throttle is used<\/strong>, and after 270,000 km<\/strong>, the strips in this S80 were completely worn out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For now, a temporary throttle body with 167,000 km<\/strong> has been installed, which still functions perfectly. The original throttle body will be converted to a magnetic sensor<\/strong>. Because this sensor works without physical contact<\/strong>, the position sensor should, in principle, no longer wear out or fail in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n
