2001 volvo v70 error code p1604 Cannot drive over 25mph. When the code is cleared runs fine for 20-40 miles then reverts to problem. I found a code match for internal throttle signal but not sure what that means. Is that the throttle body sensor? Thanks for your help

If you look that up on a normal OBD code its listed as P1604 Code Word Unregestered However for a volvo thats a code for Control Module Self Test, Speed Monitoring which would indicate the ECM or a wiring problem ( usually just a loose connection,, so check the connections on the ECM, which you can have scanned by the dealer, Volvo codes vary from the normal coding on most cars, so be careful when getting codes and their meanings

2001 Volvo V70 XC won't pass state emissions! P0014 and P0172 codes kept registering, and the check engine light appeared intermittently. The Emissions print out said "Not Ready". Last week, engine...

You need a repair shop to drive the vehicle with a professional
scan tool, for at least 25 miles

That way all the Emissions Monitors will run clear

If you fail to do that,your guaranteed to fail inspection

If any codes come back,then the vehicle has to be component
test & repaired

It sounds as though there was some pushing & poking, done by
I assume, a shop & parts changed,tested or in need of replacing,
who knows

You also will have freeze frame data at the time the codes are set,
to help with the diagnoses,IF-- you have a good shop to work on it,
so far that doesn't appear to be the case

I don't buy your hopeful rational --IF-- the oil has not been changed
(often)over the life of the motor,wrong oil used or the cam actuators
have failed,as is sort of where all this conversation has gone or
explained to you

If the cam timing is not correct,then yes, the oxygen sensor codes
may set- BUT- I don't buy the fact they go away & never come back

We could be here a long time,so I suggest you keep your line of
questions going at a repair shop. Their not wrong or far off,you just
need to understand how things work together in a motor or maybe
not play well with other parts under certain conditions
