01 Volvo V70 wgn : trans begins banging in downshift in '07. Comes and goes until mid '09 when had trans "fixed" by trans shop. (solenoids valves replaced) still banging ,but much less pronounced. Also no delayed shifts going forward as prior to fix. Check engine light just came on,so the journey continues(or doesn't) with 01 Volvo trans. Got the feeling this should be a recall item. Class action anyone?.
