Do you mean a long sweeping corner or a short sharp turn?

If it's the former, then perhaps you're uncovering the fuel pickup and it's being starved

Wiring doesn't seem to be snagging on the column anywhere, been told by a local Volvo place to check the plugs under the fuse box?

Also, the MAP sensor plug looks dodgey.

Bloody cars.

Sorted.

Whichever monkey fitted this f7p needs words ! Coil pack low tension wires just twisted together...

Rough as toast.

Think I needs a valver loom and start a fresh !
