Hello, Ive got a 940 and a couple weeks ago it started acting up. What would happen is right after starting the car, the engine would refuse to rev. I couldnt get it much over 2000 rpm. The engine would not die and it would also drive buy VERY slowly. After about 10 min of running, all of a sudden the engine would become fine and I would drive away. Now the problem is getting progressivley worse. The problem is happening at random while driving and if I am going 45 mph it will drop to about 15. I read some suggestions and cleaned the AMM plug in and also added dielectric grease to the socket, after I did this it was good but that only lasted about a day. Do I have a bad AMM?? Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks, Matt.
