2000 S70 GLT SE, automatic. 122K. Timing/waterpump/serpentine replaced @ 105K. New radiator a few month ago.

Daily, the car goes into a mode where it wont rev above 3K, and doesnt accelerate. I end up driving about 20mph. Shifting doesnt change anything, putting it in neutral and it still wont rev over 3K. No Check Engine or any other lights. Put on the scanner, and no codes pending. I changed out the MAF as a wild guess, and no improvement, still happens.

Now, ironically, if I pull into a parking lot and drive around slowly making turns, it eventually kicks back to life, and I drive event free for the next half of the ride.

Ideas?
