2003 xc90 2.4 awd
Whilst in cruise mainly but also now and again in normal drive. Car looses power.ie limp mode below 2500 rev. I turn off engine. Take out key. Count to 10 and restart. Car normal again. Code reader says turbocharger.
I reset ecu by disconnecting batt and turning on ignition. Leaving for half hour. Car great again.
Any ideas why this happenes now and again? I've cleaned maf etc. I use cleaner and octane riser in fuel. Runs lovely and whistles like a charm but now and then whilst driving in low revs will drop into limp.
