My V70 has an intermittent fault. On two occassions it has refused to run. It starts at the flick of the key revs to 1500rpm then shuts down. It will repeat this a dozen times then for now apparent reason it will start and run as normal.

Very frustrating!!

Can any one help?

Check your mass airflow sensor for debris/damage, and check your vacuum hoses for structural integrity.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
