dealer says throttle module replacement?? V70-XC70 1999

No, carb cleaner is too harsh. It is a specific cleaner dedicated to MAF which leaves no residue. Remember, the MAF sensor cannot be touched or rubbed.

If you want to try, unplug the MAF before engine start. This will generate a CEL condition, but that's OK. It should idle fine but run poorly. Turn the engine off, plug the MAF back in and if the MAF is bad, the engine will idle poorly. Never plug/unplug a MAF with the engine on.
