Welcome to the Electronic Throttle Module Trouble club! You are not alone, if that helps.

Please see "Double L" posting here in Brickboard on Nov 20. It is the best that I have ever seen (http://www.brickboard.com/AWD/index.htm?id=882356) and it describes the problem and the solution (replacement).

I also have the same problem with my 2000 S80 and believe me, I am not a happy camper with Volvo and the dealer. This appears to be a well recognized component failure associated with a bad engineering design solution and Volvo will do whatever it is necessary to get the car out of warranty before it tells you the true story and the cost to fix it. Cleaning the ETM may help but it will not solve the problem.

Hope this helps.
