Hello
I own a manual UK spec 97 V70 AWD. It has recently developed an acceleration issue. When I press the gas pedal, the RPMs ramp up normally but, the car doesn't accelerate quickly at all. It is a very slow gradual acceleration eventhough the RPMs are running high (~4000). It started occurring in 3rd gear going up hill but, now it happens in 2nd and sometimes 4th when accelerating fast to highway speeds. Any ideas of what is wrong?

Thanks.
