Nearly all 8 speed auto gearboxes have to think about what gear to go up or down to occasionally, they have too many close ratios to choose from, its a compromise for economy, 6 speed boxes are better and less dithery, Volvo box is no worse than most 8 speed boxes. I have never had any problems, only an occasional dither but never been caught short when pulling out at junctions or roundabouts.
