v40 shifting problems, jerking S40-V40 2000

I have a 2000 v40 that always wants to be in overdrive, even going up steep hills. The kickdown works but you have to do it over and over and it prefers to lug up hills at 1500 RPM. Is there any adjustment or corrective action to keep the transmission at higer revs aside from doing it manually. Also this car seems to jerk, like its missing when you push hard on the throttle.
