Well re soldered all the bad connections in the ABS module, ABS and TRACS light have now disappeared but the occasional downshift "thud" is still there. Will move onto engine gearbox mounts now this weekend...

So had a proper look at the engine mounts, turns out that the bottom right engine mount has separated. Should of taking the wheel of first time I checked the engine mounts... The torsional gearbox mount is still in one piece but heavily cracked so will be replacing them both and see if this will fix my gear change issues.
