My 02 S 60 is not turbo, but I've never noticed a rough idle. Don't really have any idea what might be causing it.

Make sure they clean the throttle body as well.

These newer cars are getting Gummed up at like 15k.

In MY Opinion it should be done every 20k.

The throttle body's are setup so fine and take minor readings and can get messed up with a minor film of carbon.
