V70 2.4t Transmission Problems V70-XC70 2001

posted by  someone claiming to be teklord on  Mon Oct 28 05:04 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I am in So. California and have a 2001 V70 2.4t with 10,000 miles on it. The transmission started shifting harshly from 2nd to 3rd gear a couple of months ago. Its shifts harshly from 2-3 when the engine is cold or hot. The harsness is more noticeable on low speed driving.

Been to the dealer for the 3rd time now. The first visit, they downloaded a new "adaptation" (which did not help). The second visit (another dealer from the first) did not know what the problem was. My third visit (same as the first dealer), the car is in the service area for two days now. They claim that they are still waiting for technical support to give an answer to this problem.

At least the dealer gave me a rental car (new S40). My V70 is getting to be a real hassle. I have read similar posts regarding this problem but not really an answer to what fixes it. Is this a common problem with the Volvo transmissions?
Anyone else has this problem?
