First gear surging - 2001 S80 T6

Post by Tannhauser »

For some reason this thing seems to surge in first gear, i.e I have to be very gentle on the pedal when I get going or it seems to rev up a few times at the slightest touch of the pedal. Once it's going / go up a gear the problem seems to go away. It seems to idle ok, maybe some slight fluctuations but nothing super noticeable.

Any ideas? Throttle body / ETM needs cleaning out maybe?
