I had an intermittant problem that usually surfaced when the weather got cold. The tranny would upshift and down shift on its own. At highway speeds it would drop out of overdrive for no reason. Turns out I had a bad throttle position sensor. The tranny was not getting good info on how fast the engine was running, and could not figure out which gear to stay in. Replaced it for $125 or so, and all has been right with the (Volvo) world.
