My V50 started running lumpy in traffic lost power and I'm now waiting recovery. Its the 5 cylinder volvo engined diesel only had her 10 days. No warning lights or messages. New cambelt and water pump when I bought her. Any guesses. The roadside assist was not impressive.

what year is the car? Did it just "die" and wont start but all controls and dash works ok or it behaves like flat battery with no dash/starter even running?

Does sound like it's fuel delivery related. Can you confirm you have fuel up to the engine.
