Took it in to the local dealer and they found a fried connection between the transmission control module (TCM) and the wiring harness (wires that network the car's computers together) that was causing small voltage fluctuations, which cause the car's computer network to rollover into fail-safe mode (hence the jolts). He told me they could attempt to apply an electrical conducting adhesive to the connection for free, or replace both the wiring harness and TCM for $1500. I opted for the former, but had another seizure/stroke on the highway this week. Methinks I'm gonna be out $1,500 soon :-(
Thanks so much!
This was a recall / modification bullitin issues by Volvo
Hope that help.
One day it turns over then dies, battery light comes on, etc. After at least a few tries, and giving it a bit of gas, it starts! So confusing. Recently my mechanic cleaned my manifold intake and said it was dirty and probably will need a new one soon.
Has anyone had this happen? Is a new manifold intake really worth $700. ?
I am located in the northeast, NY state..
thank you
New to the board
I have a 98 v70 wagon that suddenly lost the low beams on both sides. Tried the fuses and bulbs, and they look ok. Any ideas what to try next?
I replaced the bulb and checked the fuse but headlight still won't work : I'll try the CEM though
