Hi all,
I've been having trouble with my Dad's '99 XC. When I accelerate normally the car lurches forward or accelerates much slower than it should. It's fine if I slam the pedal down when the light turns green but that CAN'T be good for the car!(Fun, but hard on the car!http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif Sometimes, it accelerates normally but with the colder weather it has become more frequent - it could be that the accelerator is sticking due to cold weather but I'm not sure.
We'll be taking our baby to the local Volvo dealer (Robert Motors - Toronto, where we get all our work done) next week to have it checked, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas or have had similar problems?
Thanks very much!
