Hi, can anyone help? My s60 t5 (2004) sometimes looses power at around 3000rpm. This only last for a second or two the power then comes back and drops of and comes back, I have been to Volvo dealers and they can't find a problem. Around town there is no problem, it seems to be on motorway runs that this happens. This is under normal acceleration, not being driven hard. Could it be a turbo problem???? It almost feels like fuel flow problem, but the dealers say they can not find anything wrong.
Any ideas welcomed.

Hiya

I'd try changing the turbo control valve... Will cost about £35 for the part and takes 10 mins to change as a DIY job..

Hope this helps
