Should have stayed quiet - V70 issue......

[Roger Woods]

My old 05 V70 has been going really well and I have done a fair few miles recently BUT...... on Friday evening going home from work and only 3 miles from home it came up and said 'Engine requires services' Odd I thought as it was serviced 6 weeks back and then it went into a semi 'limp home mode' and would not go over 35 MPH?. Got home and turned it off and it seemed to re-set itself and has been fine over the 20 odd miles I have done since, its booked it to my normal chap to plug it in tomorrow but all very odd, its been such a good wagon and has never even farted before, I hope its not much, sods law just as I bought a caravan ..............

Any ideas people?

Thanks Andy, to be honest I don't expect it to be much as the old girl does seem to be rather tough and I do ask a lot of her of late!

I had topped the car up to full about 50 miles before.......

Update - I went to my Volvo chap and he could not see anything so cleared down the error codes that had remained after a recent flat battery and said keep an eye on it, I have done about 500 miles since and nothing, not even a blip?

All very odd
