V70 2,4T 2001 - Cruise problem

Kytis 2 April 2005 11:52:31
 Does anyone know, if cruise control on the model above has been
associated with frequent problems?

I'm really getting the impresion, that our sportswagon is some kind of a
Monday version. The latest nail in the coffin was this week, when the
cruise control just refused to be activated and after several attempts
the computer responded with "engine system failure, service soon".

First the cruise just came off. Then it didn't activate at all. After
shutting the engine and restart it did activate, but after pressing the
+-button, it just went dead. Then came the warning...

I called my trusted service guy, and he said it's most likely a failed
sencor. Is this common with V70? Our car has only 40,000 kilometers and
we think it's still too young to have all these probs. In addition,
there has been

* wheel alignment problem - expensive to fix!
* engine fan failure (known, there's a recall)
* software bugs
* right rear schock absorber failed
* one of the DSTC-sencors replaced

Cheers for any info!!!!

The car is now checked and the computer reset. The fault just simply
disappeared all by itself, which is typical according to my service
point in Berlin.

There was no parts changed. But the real problem had something to do
with the system that monitors engine air intake. Well, we did pass some
"mountains" when crossing the border from Germany to Czech Republic last
week.

It would be nice to know, if someone else (living in mountanious region)
has experienced similar problems...

There's nothing wrong with the mountains in your area, either :o)

FYI, whenever in the States, I always come to the west. Cause it's the
best! Man, do I miss Rockies like every other day...
