Re: Potential Starting Problems. S40-V40 2000

posted by  someone claiming to be John K on  Sat Dec 1 19:31 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hi,

Mine does that starting thing too. When I turn the key, it takes longer than usual to start (sort of coughing) and the Arrow light (4,3,L gear) light flashes until it starts.

It seems to do it when the car has been sitting in the sun. My Alfa Romeo mechanic said it's probably just condensation. I havn't asked Volvo yet.

My CD player skips sometimes when going over bumps, but sometimes it doesn't do it on really bad bumps, does anyone have this problem.

Oh ya, and my tires are goodyear Eagle LS, they seem to have a lot of road feel/noise in the front- Is that normal?
