Hey,
Have I missed anything to do with this ETM software upgrade which Volvo were offering? Heard about it on a few posts that Volvo UK were going to release an upgrade in April this year to help prevent the ETM failure somehow
Dunno how a software change would help it anyway!
cheers

I had the upgrade then my ETM failed four days later.......it was misbehaving anyway i must add....
From what i beleive it merely stops the sensors being as sensative and prevents a sudden failure...merely prolongs it...well thats what some American site i read said....my ETS light came on four days after the upgrade adn the car started to stutter more and more.......

Do you just toodle into a Volvo stealer and ask for it free of charge then? Would you recommend it? I suppose if yours was playing up b4 the update then you cant really tell.
