Two things - accelerator sticks and the KEY WON'T COME OUT! V70-XC70 1998

My wifes '98 V70 was having a problem with the automatic shift button sticking as well. I squirted the tiniest amount of WD40 on both sides of the button (as it slides into the shift lever), and it works fine. My guess is that the button is "spring loaded" and that the springs somehow distort the shape of the button causing it stick. Decreasing the friction has helped.

Can't help you on the accelerator.

Good luck.
