Default XC60 Power dip in 5th and 6th

Hi
I have noticed recently that when I accelerate in 5th or 6th gear and hit about 2500 revs the power drops momentarily and then kicks back in.
It only seems to be these 2 gears which is odd as well.

I cannot find anything relating to the issue - anyone got any suggestions/ideas?

Thanks

That could be the torque converter lock up coming in , almost like a partial gearchange ?? It gives direct drive rather than the slight slip you get with a torque converter instead of a clutch ...
