XC60 lack of response to accelerator

[Vecais]

Similarly, I had the same issue repaired under warranty recently. Thanks to this forum, when it happened to me initially I was aware of the probable cause. The dealer looked at the diagnostic computer and confirmed the issue and ordered the fix.

Many of us have had the rising oil problem. I have a 2009 D5 AWD. About a year ago I asked the service agents to replace the DPF. Sensor and I haven't looked back. Suggest you do the same.

Hi Guys,

I would like to apologise if anyone feels I am taking over a thread just need some help please.

Need help please got a fault code ccm-0009 which is 'fan motor passenger compartment temperature sesnsor blocked'?

Quick questions:

Would this effect the performance of the car?
Where is this sensor?

I have a Rica remap but it just will not respond, the gas pedal feels like a brick to push like it is being resisted.

My other 2 fault codes are:
CEM-3A00 - ECM, software faulty signal
ECM-C301 - Control module, faulty software checksum

Both these faults clear if I remove the Rica remap but Rica have advised they are normal on a remapped car and would not be the cause of the lack of performance.

The car is an 2005 Euro5 S40 2.0d 136bhp with a dpf

Any advice please guys?

Thanks in advance

My 2010 D5 205 AWD SE Lux geartronic 20,000 miles, tonight has developed exactly the same symptoms. Not wanting to pull, especially going uphill, then suddenly picking up again. No warnings on the dash board displayed.
Had the XC60 from new and this is the first problem it's really suffered apart from the numerous recalls and recalls on the recalls!
Looks like we're off to Clive Brooks Bradford on Monday. Thanks for the tips guys, will be mentioning the DPF sensors.

Please say 'Hi' to George on the Service desk - they helped us while we were on holiday near Bradford in August when our car developed exactly a similar problem with a DPF 'pressure' sensor. We had our picnic in their showroom while we waited.

23K miles on my late 09 2.4 D SE Prem man, had the rising oil level problem the day I got it back from main dealer and now 3k miles later she's lost power completely in 2nd gear when taking off from a junction (as if no turbo!). Regained power half a min later then re-occurred 25miles later! Reading through the forum it seems like a common problem! Don't expect this from a Premium Car brand with the Premium prices! Under warranty, I know, but 23k miles and 2 year old cars shouldn't be visiting dealers this early on!

Not a common problem, but one that has occurred. This is often as a result of a failed DPF sensor.

The 'rising oil level' has not been seen for a long time (except when overfilled by dealers) as it was rectified by a software upgrade

Car booked in (no loan car for 5 weeks!?!) but hopefully will cure it because I'm otherwise very happy with my XC60 which is what makes me all the more annoyed that she's let me down. Asked the dealer if he could have DPF sensors in stock hoping that they will replace the DPF sensors, if it's a known problem but he's being very cagey (fair enough -as long as its fixed). Taking the tribe down to Italy 1st week of march so don't want this problem climbing up the Alps with the roof box&boot fully laden! Let you know if it's cured.

[QUOTE=DBGlos;684434]Hi everyone

Have been over the moon with the XC60 - had it just over a year now - marvellous!

Now I've got the rising oil level problem - hopefully in on Saturday but cant help thinking that I'm wearing my bearings with diluted oil no matter what the technician says!

Anyway on to my problem... thought I was imagining it at first. The car is a geartronic btw

Driving home late one night and couldn't decide whether the accelerator pedal felt right... or rather the response to my input or lack of it! Accelerating out of a roundabout into a country road and the car didn't seem to want to 'go' just no response. I put it down to paranoia and the fact that I was steering at the time and perhaps the 'brain' though it a bad idea to accelerate at that point on a bend...

But it is happening more and more until tonight it was almost unresponsive.... I can only liken it to my teenage years VW beetle... no acceleration you just get slowly faster! The revs would slowly go up to about 3500 and it sounded as though the geartronic didn't want to change up and the car sort of pootled along. It did it repeatedly with my foot slammed to the floor - nothing! Neither did I have any warning lights/messages on the dash of any form!

Stopped the car as soon as I could pull in and switched off then restarted the car and all was fine - pushing the pedal to the floor then brought on the shove in the back and kickdown I am used to!

Any ideas what the heck is happening here? It seems a bit random and I just know that the car will behave beautifully when it goes in to the dealer on Saturday so would like some idea of what might be the problem as the car is giving me no indication that anything is wrong apart from the lack of guts!

Clues anyone?[/QUOTE ask your dealer they know of this fault I had it and dealer put a new some kind of sensor on it , it was something to do with the particulate filter tempreture I think
