2007 xc90 V8 Tranny slipping code P089600

Post by britishrocco »

New to the forum, and new to volvo. I recently bought a 2007 xc90 V8, now the tranny slip between second and third gear, got 127000miles on it, pull out code TCM-P089600 "shift time too long" with the scanner, some say to just flush or replace the valve body, other suggest a full tranny rebuilt.

Have someone ever had experience this before? as I read on the net this is common on these tranny. Need some advice.

regards

Start inexpensive. IMHO. Do a filter and Flush.

There is no filter.
Do two drain and fills. Drain what comes out through drain plug and then refill that 3 1/2 to 4 quarts. Then drive it a few days and do that again. IF there is noticeable improvement then valve body is a good gamble. No improvement is bad news.
