Default V70 no throttle

Hi, I have a V70 T5 2001, 118000 miles, and the problem is that when I put petrol in, she's difficult to start, then no throttle at all. I move the gear lever from d to r and then back and it works again. Recently replaced MAF sensor and absolute pressure sensor, but no difference, although she drives like a dream most of the time. Recently list reverse lights, so pnp switch has failed, but would that account for the throttle problem ? Thanks in advance.

Your 2001 has the Magnetti Maerielli (sp) known to malfunction throttle housing - have you checked for codes and tested your throttle module? How old is it?
