The problem continued and was getting worse particularly on long journeys.

I was recommended to use a guy called Roger at Fleet Car Services, Melbourne, Derby. He was brilliant and after a while he managed to find that it was a faulty electric wire within the loom coming from the ECU, extremely rare on Volvos, first time he had ever seen it. As it was connected to the ECU, the car thought it had been switched off via the ignition and hence stored no fault codes.

The car has now been running for over two months and I have done over 1000 miles in this time and it is has not missed a beat, very happy and cannot recommend the garage high enough.

Regards
Hi
I don't seem to be able to find Fleet Car services, is it still there?
Cheers
