W.......NOT Bush! V70-XC70 2002

Hi All,

Boy do I feel dumb! First snowfall since I got the XC. Not much snow but a really steep driveway.

Anyway, I thought that I'd try the "W" button to ease getting up the drive and was suprised that it felt like I was spinning my wheels. I gave it more gas and made it up but, I'm concerned that maybe something is wrong.

When depressing the "W" button does the transmission go into a low ratio mode that requires a lot more throttle to get moving?

Thanks for any advice,

Greydog
