The parts aren't really that expensive, it's the labor these places charge an hour. Call around and see who can do it the cheapest, unless you want to do it your self.

SOURCE: Jaguar xk8 1997 The throttle

My throttle body problem was diagnosed by the local Jaguar dealer (Barrett Jaguar in San Antonio, TX). They wanted $1200 to fix it. I had read on the internet that the throttle body should be cleaned out first because that could be the problem. When I asked them if they could clean it first to see if that is what is wront they told me that it would not do any good. It was an electronic problem and the whole thing needed replacing. I had my brother-in-law who is a mechanic clean it out for us and reinstall it. We have had no more problems. Can you believe I got a coupon in the mail yesterday from Barret Jaguar for a $143.50 throttle body cleaning special!!!!!! Liars all of them! Don't trust your dealer to tell you the truth! They just want as much money as they can **** out of you.

My Volvo c30 cuts out if I accelerate to much in gear before changing it is a diesel

there is probably an over rev stopper in the system that is intended to stop engine destruction
It is poor driving practice to put the engine in this situation as it stresses the engine unnecessarily and really achieves nothing
diesel engine have a set torque range and under or over that range produces nothing in the terms of power and gear changing should be best kept to that range
If the transmission will not change gears at around 2500 rpms then have the fault codes read as there may be a problem electronically.

My car sounds like it wants to cut out!

sounds like your idle is set too low , check your rpm at idle (warm) , and up your revs at idle.3_30_2012_5_08_46_pm.jpg

Idle speed for my volvo 850 too low. needs turning up slightly? when i start the car the idle revs are too low and car cuts out. but when its warmed up idling is fine.

Idol is controled by the computer. You need to run a diagnostic on the vehicle to determine what sensor is going bad. My best guess at this point is throttle position sensor or erg.

Intermittne revs when car starts until it warms up.

Sounds like you have an air leak from one of the vacuum lines. Does the engine idle normally when at normal running temperature?

Volvo v40 1998 model

Could have many causes, but a good start could be to have the
oxygen sensor voltage output checked.(In exhaust system)
This would explain why mixture/ variable idle speed occurs.
