Help! Please

Post by clement » Sun Dec 08, 2013 10:33 am

Ok, so Lou has just gone shopping and parked up the D3, she then jumps back in and restarts to move forward a little, when she put the car into drive she has had the following faults occur;
Transmission fault, limited gears available. On the screen where 'D' for drive comes up there is a big 'F' :headbang:

Also a Park brake fault came up.

Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. :tumbleweed:

I'd let it go to sleep and then try it again. If that doesn't sort it then I'd go for a hard reset. Battery would be my first thought. Where is she?

I can come over if you want?

Thanks for the speedy replies, Lou has locked the car to let it go to sleep, now will wait till she goes back to the car and see what happens. Fingers crossed it's just have a hissy fit. :arrow:
