Hello together, unfortunately have only experience with newer automatic transmissions, therefore the precautionary question. It is noticeable that my newly bought V70 only has a significantly higher slip on the converter in the cold (e.g. overnight at below 3°C) after the start on the first few hundred meters than normal. In other words, the engine goes up to approx. 2500-2800U/min high to get away to some extent. Switching operations however as usual soft and almost imperceptible. After a few hundred meters the haunted v orbei and the automatic has already under 2000 rpm less slip and thus also more train. Gear oil flushing was just carried out Greetings Horst
