Had the truck for about just about a year now 633,000 miles on the truck, I would start the truck, Like I always do, put the key into the ignition and turn on position, let the truck do its system test after the third beep I turn the key to start the engines, she would turn over in about three seconds. Now it takes about 15 seconds or longer to get the engine to start in the morning. only thing that has happened since this time is the oil pressure sensor went out on it, The Volvo dearler put in new sensor, and it's been running fine for a week. my suspicion is that the sensor is bad, it does not detect crank case pressure!
After the truck start up, she start up as usual.
Dose any one have an idea, could it be the oil pressure sensor or something else.

How about the sensor on the flywheel since the oil pressure sensor blew three weeks ago, I imagine, that it has to be full of oil and grit. I think the sensor can't read when the engine is being turned over !
Does anybody else have any input on this, kind of trying to figure out where the sensor sits on the D12 -
Are you receiving any fault codes in Engine ECU?

No, hot or cold it takes 10 to 15 sce. To start the truck some times. Before it wood start in 3 sce. Like clock work! Only thing that as change was the the oil pressure sensor, it blu oil all over the bottom and the side of the engine.

Mine did the same thing replaced all 4 batteries no more problems.

maybe its loosing fuel pressure after long park and fuel pump has to pump it up all over again,
there are some valves that let fuel flow in only one direction i think, maybe they are leaking
my mechanic replaced 2 of them on my engine
this picture is for D12 with electric priming, dont have description for it though

I dont think its because of batteries... recently I had one leaking smelly hot battery .. its been draining other batteries for few weeks until it got "smelly"..
I dont think other 3 batteries are holding power to the fullest but yet the start my engine within 2-3 seconds after 12h park..
Have to mention that the engine wouldnt even turn over after 24h -
if you are worried about flywheel sensor, I would disconnect it on running engine and see if it makes a difference..
both sensors: crank and camshaft -
It turned out to be a bad cam shaft sensor, you would think Volvo parts should be Perfect they are not, I replacing the cam sensor again, now the truck started up about two seconds hot or cold.
mhallam Thanks this.
