Having let my brother borrow my Volvo for a week whilst on holiday (returned today) I got text message from him saying that the car has no get up and go.

It was working fine on the Friday but come Monday morning it started but, in his words, had no boost. I think it may well be a hose issue or maybe the stop solenoid (replaced about 2 months ago) not fully opening.

It had a full filter change (oil, fuel and air) 5 months ago for its MOT and service. Had Wynns injector cleaner put in every 3rd tank (do not trust supermarket fuel that much)

The car has only done 81k but as I said before hoses I think may be the problem.

Any other advice and suggestions.

Thanks
