    Default Throttle Body Tomorrow - anything I should know?

    <cross posting from the 1997-2000 forum>

    Well, I'm going in for the throttle body recall/reprogramming/etc. tomorrow morning.

    Is Volvo just updating the software, or do they take the thing out and clean it, too?

    Is there anything specific I should ask the technician to do (or not to do)?

    (Yes, I've read some threads on this; but I'm still not completely clear about the process.)

    Thanks.

    I believe they are going to replace the ETM and update softwares.

    You might need the code to reset the radio.
