Hi, its been a while, but now Covid is 'over' Im thinking of using the QP again...
summer before last I had an issue where the car would select N instead of a gear, or refuse to change down, an example being - approach a roundabout, shift down, but the car stays in 5th - the car has been SORNed since
Usually a few tugs at the paddles and it will shift into gear again. there have been a couple of times where Id have to leave the car parked up for 10 mins or so before it would behave.
before this the clutch wear was 66% and again 66% when read at the main dealer and at an indie 8 months later - its done less than 1000 miles since
The clutch doesnt slip and generally its as good as gold, changing gears quite happily Ill get this gremlin maybe every 5 times i drive the car.
Ive had the codes read and along with some (wha look unrelated) are these gearboxy ones...
P1586 Engine Off Request from ECU
P1773 Clutch beyond PIS
P1774 Clutch hydraulic failure
P1735 Self Powering relay driver
One of the pipes on top of the gearbox (Pipe 185977) gave out and was replaced (for £1000), Id have thought my indie would have cleared the codes from that so I dont know if any of these are pre that incident.
But any insights as to what may need fixing to bring back shift reliability? Adjustments, £££££££ or both?!
