Title: O/D flash
Post by - Mike - on Jan 26^th, 2010, 7:50pm

Hi chaps.
Had a strange one tonight, I was stuck in traffic for quite some time slowly moving along when all of sudden at one point there was a slight kick from what felt to be the o/s/r wheel and then the O/D light flashed. It happened once more then everything returned to normal.
I've never had this before, any suggestions please as to the possible cause?

hi there

maybe over-heated the autobox fluid a bit? :-/

you might be able to check it using obd2.

Thanks chaps for the replies.
Shall be doing a service soon I hope and so far so good it's not done it again since this. Hopefully it was just a hiccup!
