Hi guys long time no see,
I bought my C70 GT T5 in July last year.
There were no lights on in the dash and everything seemed ok ........ till i got on the motorway and tried overtaking a wagon :-(
There was just no kick down ... it stuttered and stalled the revs went to 4k very slowly without much acceleration
The MIL light then came on.
Since then ive been round a few different garages to get the codes read and they can never tell me whats wrong with it.
The codes that everyone come up with are 261A and 262A :-
261A = Long term mixture regulation / lower partial throttle, component / function on control stop
262A = Long term mixture regulation / Idle Component / function on control stop
They were read using a Bosch KTS650 unit not a generic Volvo unit. I cant get the time off of work to get it to Volvo either.
A few people have suggested the throttle body ?
I gave Volvo a ring and the guy wasnt very helpful, he just said get it here and we'll scan it for you, then continued to go on about a very expensive throttle body with programming needed which also required a volvo cd program.
Has anyone else had the same codes and have they resolved them ? do i need a new throttle body and if so does anybody know where i can get one for less than the Volvo extorsionate pricing, and also i need to know if they defenitly need to be programmed into the car ?
Cheers guys
Lee
