Hi, got a problem with the car, gearbox warning light started flashing yesterday and it's going into limp home mode and then losing drive completely! Switched it off and drove a bit further and same again, managed to get it home on the school run like that! Can anyone recommend anybody local with a obd2 reader? Not sure if it uses a specific reader as it is a tdi, strange thing is it drives fine for 5 minutes when you first start it and the only problem I've noticed was not going into reverse from park in the morning but OK from drive for the last few weeks, I had intended to flush it but didn't get round to it! I've tried the pnp selector trick running it through the gears but no luck. The car is in Borehamwood Hertfordshire just north of London
Thanks Paul
