Each check showed 4/5 cylinders misfiring - No suprise there.

Going to wait until they have this throttle module (is this the same as the ignition module) in stock an see how it goes....

Hi mate why not try a new set of plugs and changing over coils 4 & 5 with 1 & 2 and then get the codes checked again to see if the misfire has moved to cylinders 1 & 2 if its moved it got to be the coils  :-k

auf_wiedersehen_pet:
The plugs have already been done but I like the logic of swapping the coils over. We are waiting for this module which is on order and I will ask the garage to swap the coils when they have it back.

As before, I'll keep you all updated.....................

Have a word with Volvo, there is a well known hassle with the ETM unit (mostly duff) these need to go in for a clean and software update. This is free.
The problem is that the little fingers in the ETM wareout. This gives mixed signals to the ecu.
Been there done that!
Had two Air flow meters my self.
If the ETM needs changing look at around £200-£300 as Volvo put in towards it.
