Low oil can cause some of this problem, Its kinda hard to explain by typeing. but yes oil can cause this, I've seen cars so low on oil they wont start. The lifters which work with the camshaft cant get up to do their job therefore it will miss or not start. Id be more worried about why it was low on oil tho.. Dont see many oil leaks on the XC90's
