    Anyone ever had this intake heater error 1 and 2 code flash up on dash ?
    If so what was the problem and the cure .
    I know it has something to do with cold starts.
    I would love to get some feedback before I go to the STEALERSHIP.

    Thanks in advance.

    I know i have had the prob and its not anything to serious but its a dealer repair....Seems to me its a module they need to change...Been awhile so im not clear on it but thats what comes to mind..

    Thanks.
    I had it checked out at my local mechanic, he didn't have the software to check problem on the computer, he told me not to worry about it. But it's bloody annoying watching intake heater error constantly flashing up on the dash display.

    Yeah i think its basically a glow plug idea for the intake air..Might be a lil harder starting when cold but no biggie..
    Im shocked a volvo dealer did have software for it..

    Nothing to do with how the engine runs or even cold starts really, probably either the module for the preheater or a cable even preheater itself shouldnt be big expense to fix.

    As I said it's just annoying seeing that code constantly flashing up on screen.
