When driving at 60-70mph it's fine until I put my foot down.
Instead of dropping gear it seems to go into neutral for a moment then back into the original gear. Repeating this until I back my foot of. Creating quite an un-nerving experience for passengers and rubbish for overtaking.
Also when it changes from 2nd to 3rd it can make quite a jolt too.
Any suggestions as to what's wrong and possible fixes. Cheers

I guess you have bought someone elses problem , any warranty?
All you can do is get the transmission oil changed . it is probably black ,and get a software update at a dealer. probably a 75% chance of it being ok after , depending on what is wrong of course . give it a few days after to re adapt before condeming it .
