Default Transmission failure when hot

Hie all, i recently replaced my valve body module on my s60 t5 2000 registered car, drained and replaced oil with mobil 3309 and all went well. I have just driven the car for the first tym after the repair and all was well except for harsh shift between 1 and 2 gears, the rest were smooth. However when the engine was hot i started experiencing harsh shifts all over and the car would not engage gear after stopping. Switched off, cooled down for an hour and all is well, engine gets hot and the same happens again. Am i missing something ? Help!. Ps. I had transmission fault code removed before this happened at a local garage so no errors are coming up.

whenever major tranny work is done, like replacing the valve body, you need to have the latest software downloaded, tranny adaptives reset and a drive cycle done.

Only dealer or shop with VIDA can do this.
