98 Estey T5-M Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 My dad has a 1999 V70 with 222k miles and recently the car has been running a little funny. While cruising down the road on the way to work he will be doing 45-50 and want to accelerate but the car will chug for a second or two and then accelerate. It seems better once the RPM's break 2000. Any ideas as to what could be causing this and solutions? Thanks as usual guys Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laird Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Anytime anything goes weird on a 99, it's somehow ETM related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msundstrom Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Hey bud! My 1999 v70 xc with 172k just started doing that too, had a transmission flush done, didn't help. I also have a check engine light but last I checked it was just for the cat, i'll check again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
