Thanks for the detailed follow-up but is the above a good idea, even if not regular stop/start?
AFAIAA, there used to be a stop-neutral feature in the control software for the 5 speed but it was removed as it apparently was thought to cause more rather than less gearbox wear over time.
This has been well discussed in the
Volvo XC forums. Maybe there were other issues too, e.g. probematic valve body problems but I'd understood the stop-neutral feature to be a problem.
