I just bought this car with 30000 miles. It is petrol and automatic low power turbo. It had a check engine light problem before we bought which was repaired by a volvo garage last week by replacing the air mass meter. It has full three year service history. We had driven around about 25 miles and had mechanic check the car and he thought everything is OK.
I am used to my 12 year old 945 turbo and I pretty much start as I used to start the 945. ~Turn to position II and crank within 5 or seconds or let the check engine light go off and then crank. This morning (only day 2 of the ownership) I tried to start it and it doesn't start in the first three attempts but fourth starts it up. It idles at ~900 rpm. I stopped it after a 5-10 minutes running. I tried to start it again, still the same problem, taken three tries and atleast 10 second cranking. 945 under these condition will start at the first attempt. After driving the v70 for 30 minutes when I stopped and in park, the rpm was still only ~900. 945 the idle rpm goes down once the engine has been warmed up. The AC and the lights in the v70 were on while starting.
My question is that am doing something stupid. Or is it posible that the AMM was installed the necessary adjustments were not made.
Once this car is running it runs well (as far as I can make out).
All your suggestions most welcome. Thanks in advance,
