D5 (2005 on) - Kangaroo / Hesitant

RDT S60 · Dec 30th, 2019, 16:59

Hi all,

My name is Rob, new to this so please bear with me if I make any mistakes 🤣

Got a 2006 S60 2.4 D5 6-speed auto with just over 100k on the clock.

Bought in March 2019, had it serviced and it's been running great.......until Saturday just gone 🤨

Got in it for work and it was basically kangarooing down the road. It starts and idles normally but when you try and pull off it hesitates then lunges. I'm not a mechanic by any stretch of the imagination but I'm thinking a fuel delivery issue ?

Anyone else had similar issues ?
Absolutely any feedback would be greatly appreciated 😊

Exactly how much fuel do you have in the tank?

RDT S60 · Dec 30th, 2019, 18:03

Just over a quarter tank. Reading 200 miles on display

If you put your ear near to the fuel filler with ignition on, can you hear the buzz of the in tank pump?

Tank pump buzzing away nicely 😊

When was the fuel filter last changed (mileage and/or time) and what make was fitted?

No idea to be honest pal.

Had an interim service in March. Check levels and top up. Oil and filter changed, and a general once over.

I'll change the fuel filter and see what happens.....

Thanks for the comments. Appreciate it 😊
