“Confirm N to D gear engagement harsh, no relevant fault codes stored. Check transmission oil level and quality, all ok. Carried out adaption process, gear change still harsh, carried out second addition, fault remains. Internal gearbox failure, excess leakage past C1 clutch.” At the time the fault first occurred, the car had travelled about 65K (with a full Volvo service history).
As a matter of course, we got the gearbox oil changed but have been living with this for a couple of years as it hasn't got any worse (or better!). The replacement and rebuild costs are scary...
Is this a one-off or have any of you had the same issue?
Cheers, J

Mine (v60 D5 auto, 2012) has exactly the same issue. Started around 70-80.000km. Gearbox oil change at 90.000. Car has now 170.000km, so far so good, didn't worsen, next gearbox oil change scheduled in 10.000, I'll keep you posted.
