So I have managed to get a test drive of a 2010 xc90 D5, not the exact same spec as my 2013 200HP but as near as I could get and I would expect the transmission to behave in the same way. I also have it booked in with an independent specialist next Monday as I'm pretty certain that tomorrow's result will confirm I have an issue. In the meantime, can anyone advise how their D5 auto behaves in M mode. Do the revs drop off and pick up again a couple of times whilst in gear? For example, with gradual acceleration on 2nd the car will reach 2000RPM drop to around 1800 and then move back up until I up shift. Same in 3rd but doesn't seem to do it in 4th. I've also noticed that in D my transmission is going into 5th at about 35mph which seems early although listening to the engine you would think its not changed up soon enough. I'm really struggling to get any insight on what's right and wrong with this car.
