The dreaded transmission failure for this model is upon me....and of course the extended warranty ended. The code I got from a reputable Volvo mechanic is TCM-000C, which I believe is the solenoid failure code. And as we all know, there is no part replacement for the transmission.

Before I commit to a new tranny, can anyone tell me what is the solenoid's function? I noticed that the 2->3 shift can go back and forth, but on manual-matic mode of shifting things seem to be fine. Can I drive it in the manual-matic mode until such time as the transmission is totally shot? What are the potential problems with this?

And in case anyone has been able to replace just the solenoid, please share your story!

Thanks.
