Hi, just got the car back from a long and delayed new boot lid. Whilst there I had the front painted too. On the test drive and the way home the gear number display has flashed, constantly. We weren't sure if this is just because its been powered down for so long and the gear box is 'learning' again. On the way home, on a slip road between the A13 and lakeside, just before a police check which was just great, it lost drive. As I came to a stop and the car selected 1st it wouldn't then engage at all. Turning off, selecting neutral, or any other gear didn't help however opening and shutting the bonnet did solve this. It happened to me again on the slip to my town, I jumped out opened and shut the bonnet and I was on my way. During this drive home at different points the cog warning light lit up but at no point did the gear number stay solid,always flashing.
Can anybody shed any light on this?
