Gearbox problem?

wazadaza · 01-03-2010, 09:22 PM

I was on the track in Auto, S6, sport and track mode and the car wouldnt change up from 4th into 5th in auto but in manual it was absolutely fine, anyone had this before? I'm hoping it's a software bug.........

Never done track work in auto

only person i know who drives in auto is 3wheels3 (and in S6 it is superb by the way you knockers)

never heard of it not going up into 5th though!

although i guess as it changes on the limiter in S5-S6 youd have to be doing 120mph plus

If it only happens in auto only then its likely to be software. If it happens in manual too then software still first question but then its pump pressure which could either be the solenoid or the pump itself. Get a DME update that is likely to solve it.
