Autofilter is working fine. However I don't get the figure for the
number of hits. I only have the text Filtermode instead of a figure.

When I create a new spreadsheet it works. I have been looking for all
(?) possible settings on the Tools-menu.

When your list has many formulas, or if a cell in the list is changed
after a filter has been applied, the Status Bar may show "Filter Mode"
instead of a count of the visible records. You can use the Subtotal
function to count the visible rows.

The following MSKB article has information:

The AutoFilter status bar displays the "Filter Mode" message in Excel

And there are a couple of workarounds here:
