Not going into gear when warm.
Last year my car v70 t5 2.5 awd on a 52 plate, started jumping gears and clunking when engaging drive.
When i set off it drove as it should for around 15 miles but then it would start missing gears and when i accelerate it would jump into drive. Then it would clear itself and drive as it should for a short time then start acting up again. Sometimes when it seemed to be stuck in top gear the "d" on the clock cluster would change to --- --- i would stop and turn the ignition off for 10 seconds and the car would drive as it should. I had a complete flush done by a specialist while i watched and the oil was all replaced with the correct atf. It drove ok for around two weeks then the fault started again. Help |

My opening question is always has it been plugged up to Volvo Diagnostics? Aka Vida? It could be anything from a module fault to a gearbox fault. Hopefully there should be a fault code to start the proceedings off.
