Volvo Repair: S60 performance, s60 t5, service rep
QuestionI have a 2006 S60 T5 and sometimes i lose power. i will try to pass another vehicle and it feels as though the turbo stops working, but i cant be sure. i can still accelerate, but very very slowly. i dont hear the turbo whistle, and sometimes if i tap the accelerator i hear a metallic screaching noise for just a second, as if the turbo gets turned on suddenly. during the screaching, power returns briefly. it happens most often on the interstate with hard driving. power will return after a pitstop or if i take it easy for a bit. the dealer is stumped because they cannot reproduce the problem.
AnswerJeremy, thats an interesting one. Car is under warranty so I think the dealer needs to call the service rep to help on this one. I cant say that I have seen this one yet but just to be sure, I would check all the turbo hoses to see if there arent any holes in it. May also be a ECU problem that is intermittent. Keep going to the dealer. There is a problem somewhere. Roger
