so......still wont star aahhhhhh
So where do I start...........
I'll start at the beginning. Came out one morning to start my 2004 54 s60 2.0t sport se and it struggled to start ie took 2 attempts ok fair enough but its got gradually worse until now it won't start at all. Towards the end (over the space of 4-6 weeks) it took 45 minutes of cranking to finally get it started (obviously not constant cranking) and once warm it started straight away. It comes up with the fault anti-skid service required too? I've read up about water ingress to the ecm but this was on the earlier models? Things I've done/checked/changed so far 1, New plugs 2, checked coil packs, all good 3, changed crank shaft sensor after AA came out and said this was the fault (still the same) 4, changed vaccum hoses 5, Diagnostics suggest the engine temp sensor is reading correct 6, it was running on 4 the last time it drove, AA suggestedbbq a new injector was needed for cylinder 4 ( still the same) I've moved house recently to Doncaster and my Volvo is still in sheffield. With it being an auto makes it a bit more difficult. Would I be able to it with it being an auto? Neautral and stay at 40 would that be ok |

Hello, Are you asking if the car can be "roll started"? Say, roll it down a hill then put it into "D" or '3" then turn the ignition switch on?
Also, were there any codes or engine mgt./check engine light? Who did the diagnostics? Was it a dealer with the "utmost" tool? Kira |

when you say it got worse to start, was it still hard to start when warm or was it just starting from cold? although you say diagnostics say the temp sensor is working it does sound like a typical temp sensor problem to me

Handbook says you can tow it for upto 80km at a max speed of 80kmh - that's 50 miles/mph in English! Remember the brakes and steering will need a good deal of effort to operate.
