S60 Overheating Air Flap Fault

My 2002 Volvo S60 with a gasoline engine is having issues at 232230 km. The check engine light is on, and the engine is overheating. A diagnostic scan shows an active air flap fault, and the electromechanism seems defective. Has anyone else run into this?

I had something similar with my S60. Check engine light and overheating were the key symptoms. Did you perform a diagnostic scan?

Yes, the diagnostic scan indicated a fault with the active air flap. Did your scan point to the same issue, specifically with the grille shutter or flap motor?

Yes, the scan indicated a problem with the flap motor. Given the symptoms, it's likely the cause. I'd suggest visiting a workshop. They quoted me 590€ for the repair.

Thanks for confirming. I appreciate the insight. I'll schedule an appointment with a workshop to address the air flap issue.
