my s60
My T5seem to have developed a bad starting problem on my 2002 s60 2.0T.
when its cold i.e. when i go to work in the morning, it starts ok, same for when i leave work, but if the car is warm, and not stood long, then i try to start it, the rev counter goes mad, spinning all over, and it really struggles to start, sometimes, it seems to affect the way the engine turns over too, and furthermore, i have had a couple of error messages saying "reduced engine performance", and even more, sometimes it wont rev over 2000 rpm, just like holds back.
I had the crank sensor checked, and it was ok, dont know what to do now, and its driving me mad.
can anyone help please.
thanks in advance
