Transmission issues?

Post by AlanS »

I am fearing the worst. 2013 S60. As the weather warms up, there is a transmission issue. At idle, when i leave the brake pedal, the car feels like it is in neutral...it will roll backwards when I take my foot off the brake. As I accelerate from idle (at a light, let's say), there ia a clunk...a prominent shift from 0- 1st. The car lunges. Not every time, but I see it happening now that the weather is hotter. Thoughts? No prior fluid changes. about 70K. What is the recommended fluid for this model?

About 70K. Never had a fluid change. Is there a good tutorial for this? What is the recommended fluid to use?
