Hi Have you got the ability to scan your gearbox for codes? Alex pepper has the lead software etc for this I believe.... I'm sure one of the mods on here have the web address to contact him. Unless you live near someone that has the lead & software combo and can scan it for you. Where do you live?

| never ever believe in things like that... knew a few chaps who believed everything they've been told by the previous owner and their cars ended in a month or so, either in the a garage for an engine rebuild or in a scrap yard
