Ok it all started yesterday morning, Driving along the road at around 50mph just cruising and the car seemed to cut out for a milisecond then go again (S70 T5 Auto)
Thought it weird but never worried about it, then it did it again but cut out a bit longer this time, then the dreaded management light showed its ugly face, This continued now and then at no particular times all the way home, cutting out at traffic lights n then driving fine.
Today a got the codes read but dunno the actual code a was told it was air mass meter, Had this code before and it ended up the rubber elbow on the inlet manifold, codes were cleared and a was away again
2 mins later it did it again and lights back on, continued to cut out, started it up but it cut out again straight away, then it would start n drive then cut ut again, eventually on the motorway it was constantly losing power untill a came off and it died totally, just wouldnt start again, A left it 10 mins and it fired up but was rough as f*ck then died and game was up
A was then told to disconect the air mass meter and its ran all the way home without any hesitation or cutting out although power is way down
Is it the air mass meter thats given up or could it be an air leak? or anyone any other ideas?
Soz bout the size of the story but hope someone can help :(
