I do have an 850 as well; the V70 is the girlfriend's car. I'll try that.

Sounds like a problem I'm having on my '99 V70 GLT: loss of power; kicks down, revs and nothing. Scary when pulling out into traffic. Passing out of the question. Progressively worse over course of months. New plugs, coil packs, O2 sensor, fuel and air filters, cleaned MAF, all to no effect. Now rough running and stalls. Vacuum leaks?
