Hello,
It is the second time this happens with my '08 9-5. First time was about 2 years ago. Same happened this morning.
Yesterday : a lot of slush on the road. Engine bay probably deeply wet of this salted water.
This morning : -14°C, started well, as usual. The transmission do not reach 4-5 speeds. It stays between 1 and 2 (not sure if it could engage the 3rd, I observed 4000rpm at 60km/h). I stopped, engaged reverse and drive again : no effect, still limited to 1-2 speeds. Turned off the ignition switch for 10 seconds and re-started the car : transmission engaging 1-2-3-4-5 as normal. Same behavior as 2 years ago.
I am afraid the car to repeat this while my wife or dauchter are driving.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Francois
