Hi,

I have an 2012 XC90, and love it.. alas once it gets warm it lunges into first gear on pulling away, i have had the fluid serviced with no improvement and have been quoted £2,500 for a new gearbox.

It works perfectly in manual and i want to know can i continue to drive in manual mode for the forseable future, as its no great hardship and my MPG has improved.

You can tell by now i am no expert, so any advice would be very welcome and much appreciated.

Thank you so much.

Colin.
