1999 S80 T6. Engine stalls on sharp right turn

Post by dvedaa »

I've been having a problem with my S80 stalling out on sharp right hand turns. It only happens once in a while but when it dies it dies... When this happens and i back off of the throttle, it comes back alive and drives normal again. I have inspected everything I can think of under the hood and can not see anything wrong! As I said, the car runs very well otherwise.... However, it is displaying in the message center " SRS Airbag service required Urgent". I spoke with the Dealer and have it scheduled to go in to have this cleared. Could this be related?

I have done a ton of work on the car, most recently:
New fuel pump
Radiator
Head light assembly

Any advise would be very helpful!

Thank you, Don

Could a fuel line be involved. It does run down the right underside of the car. perhaps a steering rod is hitting something...just taking some practical guesses. Jack it up and turn it sharp to right and see what is hitting underneath.
