the fault "HOWEVER it does have a slight fault when going up a steep Hill and you kick down the gearbox will go into safety mode"

this is happening to my car every so often, what are the likely causes ?

I LOVE it when i see the word ............. HOWEVER!

HOWEVER it does have a slight fault when going up a steep Hill and you kick down the gearbox will go into safety mode this is easily rectified by switching the engine on an off and away you go.

He should have my job! He could earn a fortune fixing cars by simply cycling the ignition key

well at least every pannel has the same colour and everyone knows where you are, something for the jaleous husband.
Nice avatar Stan, stil moving very flexi

Overheating gearbox caused by sludge in the bottom of the engine rad where the gearbox oil cooler is, you will probably need a new rad as they are next to impossible to clean, probably needs a new oil cooler thermostat as well, and the gearbox oil needs changing quick as when it gets hot it breaks down very quickly... You can test this out with an IID tool or similar and read the gearbox oil temp in live values when going uphill...  Pete
