Hi all, my 2005 s60 2.5T is acting up - basically loosing power when I am driving. Usually when I turn off the engine and turn it back on I am good to go - at least for a little while. As I drive mostly around town - this isn't too dangerous yet!

I am pretty sure that this is a fuel issue. All the electrics stay working when this happens and sometimes I can coax it on by massaging the gas pedal.

I've ordered a replacement fuel pressure sensor to see if that is the problem, but I am also aware that throttle body problems were an issue for earlier s60s. Should this be something that I should consider if the fuel pressure sensor doesn't fix it? Put another way - has anyone with a 2005 or later s60 had problems with the throttle body/ETM?

Thanks!

(BTW my car has about 90,000 miles on it- so it isn't super high mileage and I run only premium gas).

 

Just to close this out.

The issue was the fuel pressure sensor. I ordered and installed a new one and I have had no problems since.

To help others diagnose:

My symptoms were only a loss of power leading to stalling. Electrics were good, and when the car was restarted it was fine. Idle was very even and the car performed fine.

My understanding is that a ETM/throttle body problem will lead to erratic RPM and idle - this wasn't my problem.
