Limp mode rectified
Hi all,
thought I would post this info,had limp mode problem since xmas and tried several garages to sort the problem to no avail.But at last after all manner of remedies had failed I took the car to Saracens in Fakenham Norfolk,their technicians went over the car and diagnosed pipe to turbo,fitted new pipe and problem sorted,cannot thank them enough.Trevor and his team certainly know what they are doing. Any one with Volvo problems in Central Norfolk cannot go wrong seeking there no nonsense approach,just thought I would share my appreciation of them, Tim. |

Ive missed your threads, BUT, was your issue the same as mine??
2005 S60 D5 (163) when going on full throttle up to 3.5k revs all ok, then just after that the engine service light comes on and then I have no turbo, i.e limp mode. This lasts for about 5 mins, the service light goes out and then i have full power again (till i boot it again) Im thinking its the fuel filter being blocked, as the dealer let it run down to 10 miles left on the computer before i picked it up??? Maybe, maybe not. Im getting mine serviced next week so I'll post my findings. Cheers |

Firstly I am shocked no other garage looked at that pipe !! its a very obvious one to check 100% swap the filter over .It was a problem for my car as i had trusted the fuel gauge too much ! |

Could have saved yourself a few £££'s if you had read up on forum and had a go yourself.
Theres plenty of knowledge floating about on these topics from many of us on here and plenty of How To's. Dont be affraid to ask first Still great to hear there are some garages trust worthy out there!! Just out of curiosity how much did they charge for the repair/parts etc? Rich |
