The gearbox has gotten bad again, I don't get any juddering or slipping gears, but now 99% of journeys end up with it ending up i TRANS FAIL SAFE mode. Puts it into 4th and stays there. Getting very tedious to be honest. But for now I am not in position to get it sorted. And worst of all my back up car and off road toy Range Dog is being a total nightmare now too. Drove it fine for over 200 miles. Parked it up, then all of a sudden, nightmare to get started from cold (4.6 Gems P38), then finally refused to start altogether, had to call breakdown out, they got it running, but badly, and it won't idle.

Looks like I am kissing goodbye to Sussex. A county I will never miss as long as I live. Born and bred in Sussex, but wish I was born in another country.

I am adding a little complication to my life. I am infact taking the last owner of this Range Rover to court. The advert clearly stated along with all the messages that I have that the gearbox was in perfect working order with no faults at all.

Are the error codes P0730 &P0756 still present? Were the solenoid connectivity measured from EAT ecu connection? I would check the connectivity to all solenoids and speed sensors. Here is couple of threads with help from RRPhil. |

I thought similarly. Now, if it was sold with finance owing that's one thing (selling something you don't own), but I always thought a private sell was 'as is'. |

There is some comeback for private if the car was sold knowingly of a fault, but trying to prove this would be impossible as seller would just claim i did not know as there not a mechanic, no point wasting money trying to get any money back.

The OP has mentioned that the sale was not private, it was from a trader. In this case the Consumer Rights Act is the piece you'll need to know to get a result.

The trader has gone to ground, and I do not have the full name so extra effort is having to be put into this case.

I was reading about code P0756 and RAVE tells "Shift control solenoid 2 open circuit" but same DTC code in BMW workshop manual is "Shift solenoid B performance or stuck off" meaning that it could be a mechanical issue with transmission. Replacing valve body with known good unit would be a easy start. If it doesn't help then the transmission has to come off the vehicle. I would contact RRPhil. |
