The transmission of my 2001 V70 2.5T with 73K miles was behaving badly for some 20K miles - very rough disconnect when coming to stop, jumping to gear when standing with the brake pedal applied, rough engagement when start moving. This is all intermittent, 50% of the time, so when I took the car to a dealer they did not see the problem and confirmed that all software is up to date. They suggested to keep driving the car.
Transmission fluid has not been flushed, but the level is good in the color is not black - reddish-brown, which is normal.
ETM has a yellow sticker, so it was replaced some time before 35K miles.
Finally during of the rough jumps the transmission threw codes P1618 and P0810 and the message Transmission Service Required. Check engine light came up too.
I cleared the codes which cleared both the message and the Check Engine light.
Does any know if these codes can point to something that can fix the transmission? Or a new one is the only way?
Thank you,
Yuri
