Re: 1998 S70 starts but won't runs

Yep, did all the disconnect, discharge, lock and unlock stuff.
Installed a new immobiliser antenna ring on the ignition today and no difference.

Is there an immobiliser module somewhere that may need replacing?

Re: 02 V40 No power for start

On a related note I have finally figured out what the issue was with the car loosing power and cutting out when trying to idle. :) :) :) Now that it is running and not cutting out anytime it feels like it I can hand the car over to the wife again to drive. Will create a new thread with the details o...

Re: 02 V40 No power for start

It would appear the issue is the gear position sensor (it is an auto). If I row the gear lever back and forth a few times and then leave it in P or N it will start.

Re: 1998 S70 starts but won't runs

Have been playing around with a lot of things on the car and have some further info. In response to a couple of the questions raised: 1. Naturally aspirated 2. Fuel filter was changed recently anyway so I didn't bother changing it again 3. I replaced the fuel pump as a "just in case" - had...

02 V40 No power for start

G'day, I have an automatic 2002 V40 that is giving me some grief - actually a lot of grief but I am only going to raise one of the issues at the moment. :) The car has 150,000 km on it. At times while driving at a steady speed (could be anywhere between 60 kmh and 120 kmh) the car starts to struggle...

Re: 1998 S70 starts but won't runs

Have been trying to read codes but my scanner doesn't want to talk to the S70. :( Scanner talks fine to my V40 but comes back with a Link Error when I connect it up to the S70.

Anyone have any ideas/suggestions based on the details provided so far?

Re: 1998 S70 starts but won't runs

Well, I haven't read the codes yet but no CEL or other indicators suggesting I need to check the codes. Will check the codes and post if I find anything.

Re: 1998 S70 starts but won't runs

No codes.
It does run a little longer with some carb/throttle body cleaner it in.
