problem #3

V70 T5 2.3L I5

  • Automatic transmission
  • 118,000 miles

Shifting from second to third gear got progressively rougher and jerkier and on occasion, it would completely fail to shift. This transmission has shifted poorly since day one. Junk.

V70 T5 2.3L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 102,000 miles

I now know how much of a problem the transmissions are. Almost purchased a new volvo but thought better of it.The trans.when cold is good,when warm shifts badly when it shifts at all. This is a problem that is going to cause injury if not death. And no correct fix that I have seen.
