My 2000 S40 (<65K miles) purchased used 6 mo ago. Has run well this winter but for last month recurrent problem with unprovoked acceleration and fast idling OBD problem codes PO 118 / PO128 / PO300. I've been using mid grade fuel and my local tech says must use premium or engine electronics get confused and vehicle compensates by altering idle speed and acceleration. So I've added Octane booster, topped off with premium but in meantime anyone encountered similar problems.
