Anyone had problems with 2000 S70 Not Starting?... S70

Yesterday morning our S70 wouldn't start. The dealership took a look and said they couldn't find anything wrong with it and said it was flooded. I disagree with them. When you turn the ignition like you do everyday you expect the car to start. Yesterday morning it did not, on the first try and several attempts after that. I did allow time to pass between the attempts incase there was a flooding problem. The dealership said that if it happens again then I should let the car sit and then press all the way down on the gas pedal and turn the ignition until the car starts. I don't believe this is a satisfactory response, and that you should not have to do this to start a 2000 vehicle. Maybe if this was a '74, but not a newer car.

Anyways... I just wanted to see if there was anyone else that has had this problem, and if they found out what the cause was.

We have had several other problems with this car, but I won't go into them on the board.

Thanks!
