Have you checked your fuses?
You may just need to replace the control switches.

The smell of Petrol during hard acceleration has ended. My mechanic open the metal cover of the fuel tank and tightened the plastic cover of the fuel thank, and that was it. Traveled over 900 kilometers over the weekend and there was no smell at all. Getting happier by the day with the S70.
