Another Failed ETM Story
*Not once*, through all of these symptoms, did the ETS light ever illuminate. To me this is proof positive that the software “update” that Volvo issued along with the extended warranty for the ETM essentially hobbled the ETS monitoring system to the point it is useless. Considering Volvo’s stature as the builder of some of the safest cars made, this backroom hijinks of a “fix” is certainly a slap in the face to their cusomter base. In my view, the throttle system on this car was so over-engineered as to become a detriment to reliability and safety.
This will certainly be my first and last Volvo. I, for one, will never buy another one again.
