I have a volvo s80 2001, when driving up hill it goes very slow and then it just takes off with a speed, when driving on the flat its like the gas is not flowing freely and it gives small little jerks

The transmission was just, the warning light is not indicating anything.

    This is not much of an answer, but I would take it in and get the fuel pressure checked. The pump may be dying. If it was the filter it would be constant, not this up and down situation.

Wont go uphill

1. Low fuel pressure. Check pressure and replace pump/filter as needed.
2. You are "pinging". Use premium gas, check ignition timing and have mechanic remove carbon build-up from cylinders.
