Volvo S60. Idles rough
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi Guys,
I am new to this forum and this is my first Volvo I have owned.
I have just purchased a Volvo s60 2002 model non turbo 5 cylinder.
I purchased it from a car auction. At the car auction I started the car, car started nice idled well. I let it run for a while all seem good so I purchased it.
When I left the auction yard a few kilometres do the road I put my foot down to pass a slower vehicle, all of a sudden the vehicle start reving at full throttle and the brake petal went hard.
I had the car towed to my work. I removed the throttle body intake tube and found the butterfly stuck full open in the throttle body. On further examination I found that the butterfly in the throttle body was binding so I removed it purchase a used throttle body that has the yellow sticker on it and it a 2010 build throttle body.
I installed it, started the car, car started nice idled a little high like the chokes were on.
It idled like this for approximatle 1-2 minutes then all of a sudden the rpms went right up to 2000 rpms, it stayed like that for 1-2 minutes then the rpms drop right down then the car started idling like it is missing on 2 cylinders or it's in limp mode. If I shut the engine down and restart it, it will do the same thing.
There is no engine warning displayed on the dash board.
I scanned the computer cleared the errors, still the same.
I scanned the computer again and the error It logged was a P0507
I also changed the MAF sensor on an off chance it might be that causing this issue and still the same.
Can anyone shed any light on this for me
Cheers
