    Hi folks...

    I know someone with an 850 (automatic gearbox). Every now and again
    the car will stall and not restart unless left to rest for a few
    minutes. Volvo charged them a couple of hundred $ but they did not
    fix it.

    Any ideas?

    Can you give us some more information. When does your car stall? Does
    it stall right after startup? Or does it stall while you are driving
    down the highway?

    I know someone with an 850 (automatic gearbox). Every now and again
    One possible culprit is the fuel pump relay (103), especially if there
    are no fault codes.

  4. If your stalling is like someone turned off the electrical, try the fuel
    pump relay. This cured my car's stalling.
