    Since July 2004 I own a V50 2.0 Diesel. Since i replaced the V40 with this
    one, I was very happy with the driving conditions off the V50. It handled
    very well....
    Untill I got a warning that there was a problem with the motormanagment.
    After something like 60 seconds the warning disappears.
    It only (mostly) happens when driving on the highway. When you take your
    foot away from the acceleration pedal for a moment and the push it in, most
    of the times the warning comes up. The car was for several times at the
    dealer, the did some software updates, they replaced some parts (a pressure
    sensor on the turbo),....
    They (the dealer) convinced me that there was no danger for the car to keep
    on driving. But after getting sch a warning the computer disables the cruise
    control so I have to completely stop the car, take the key out and restart.
    So it is VERY anoying when you have to drive long distances without cruise.

    Has anyone encountered the same problems? And what was the solution your
    dealer came up with.

    Many thanks
