Re: Reflection/Accelerator Questions S80 2000

Richard-

Personaly, I haven't noticed a reflection in the windshield that is distracting while driving. On the acceleration/lift off throttle issue, the S80 uses a 'drive by wire' throttle system. On hard acceleration, when you lift off the throttle, there is a momentary delay while the ETM (electronic throttle module) decides if you really want to go from full throttle to idle position. Completely normal and related to emission concerns during coast-down.
