V8bob,
just off now to take a short run and use the paddles through all the gears.
I'll then try the reset as previously suggested. |

Hi Craig,
I have this problem with just the drivers door soft close. In your experience, is it worth trying a new motor or is there a way of testing the original one first? |

I see that you are in Rickmansworth which is not too far from me. (C.St.P)
Have you tried talking to an indie for help?
I use Harris Mayes in Harefield. Highly recommend them. |

The bit about being charged an exorbitant amount of money for a couple of hoses DOES sound about right. Does this include labour charges to fit them?
