Hello Foristi, driving an XC90 since May 2007 and was up until 2 weeks ago also s e h r satisfied. With light uphill drive at about 80km/h suddenly a warning came into the display: !!! Gear maintenance urgently needed !!! When I noticed this immediately, also the engine power slowed down. So I stopped quickly, switched on N, then P and the engine switched off. After locking the foot locking brake I got off and noticed that litically oil runs out, the track I learned from my workshop (120000km of service had been done a few days before) that I should contact Volvo Assistance. After completing the calls I got a replacement car and my XC90 was transported home from Austria. Diagnosis of the workshop: Gear damage, costs about €8.000.00 After some time I now have an offer to take over about 60% of the total cost and am not satisfied with it. Instead of changing the gear and making the test drive, I was called to tell me that the “new” gear would also be damaged, because when kick-down driving through the gears, the gear will not switch from the second to the third gear. My workshop has now ordered another “new” gear and installs… Does any of you have experience with the subject? Look forward to your comments – maybe I will come out somehow… Greetings Dragobert
