The problem occurs intermetintly, maybe every 1,000 miles, and since we only drive 8,000 miles a year, it can take several months for it to happen. There is no ryme or reason as to when the problem occurs. The dealer says unless I get a Warning light to come on, then there is nothing he can do. I want him to @ least document the problem, so if I have to I can use the Lemon Law. It appears to be a cold weather condition, not bad for a car that comes from Sweeden!!!
I have read in this Forum where some people had a "Black Box" that Volvo attacthed to their car, & whenever the problem occured they pressed a button that locked the info into a seprate computer. I have alse read where Volvo replaced Transmission Valve Bodies, & eventually the whole Transmission trying to find the problem. When I asked my local Volvo dealers about this problem, all they say is "You are driving a Volvo, they don't break down & we have never heard of the problems you are talking about" I know they are lying, because their lips are moving!
