- Volvo XC60 D3 AWD
Hello,
I own a 2010 Volvo XC60 D3 AWD Momentum, and I've encountered an intermittent starting issue. A month ago, while in France, my car struggled to start. It cranked but wouldn't fully ignite. I had it towed via TCS to a nearby garage. Surprisingly, upon its arrival at the garage, the car started up without any issues. They inspected it but couldn't identify any problems.
While I found this puzzling, I'm not a mechanic, so I assumed all was well. However, the same issue resurfaced two weeks ago. This time, I had the car towed to an official Volvo service center. Just like the first instance, the car started up perfectly at the garage, leaving the mechanics baffled.
To assist them, I've shared a video recording of the issue, but they've yet to replicate the problem or determine its cause.
Has anyone experienced something similar or have insights on the possible issue? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
