Our Volvo V50 2.0 DS has been fantastic. Just recently it seems to be losing power when driving. This happens more when cold. It is like I am lifting off the power for a few seconds and when pulling out from a junction, unless you give it plenty on the accelerator, it can stall. I am thinking maybe an injector or glow plug problem!
