Title: Gearbox problem
Post by Theleg on Dec 31st, 2006, 4:40pm
Hi everone. :) Im a new member and like to start to say that this forum and the hole site are great :D. But now to my problem.
Had my 20,16V -95 OBD scanned and a gearbox code come up. P 1701. The box are working fine forward but when it's cold and have been standing for a while it fails to rev. When that happens I just turn the engine off and start it again and it revs. just fine! The box thumps in the gear but I can not accelerate. This never accoures when it's warm. The oil is fine, and the oil-level is fine too. Is this a gear-box problem or a loom-problem? Greatful for any suggestions.
Happy new year from The leg, Sweden

Hello mate and happy new year ;)

I remember from my gearbox I had a solenoid code, P1701 sounds like my solenoid code. On the main site the fault codes are listed, have a look around and you should find them.

Hope this helps.

Regards, Bruce.
