Why buy a manual when you can download one for free!
Can you manually pull it back through the gears when it's playing up?

Is the 'Power' light coming on when it holds the gear?? Or don't you have one of those buttons either?? LOL!!!!
Stupid question, but how long since you've checked/replaced the tranny fluid (i.e. leaks,etc)??

Was i suppose 2 leave that button in Scotty? Haven't noticed the light come on, will keep an eye out. Wasn't all that long ago replaced the fluid, I replaced the fluid hoping it would solve this problem, And of course it leaks, what sort of question is that Scotty? *L*
I have had this problem for ages ( yep, I'm slack ), and yeh I should go to a Specialist and get it looked at. But don't have the $$$$ to spend and I'm sure i will hear the dreaded words exchange / rebuild.
Have changed the valve body with a second hand one that had no known issues, but still done the same
Thanks guys for the input

Similar problem with mine. Would change from first to second, but not use third or fourth. Ended up pulling out the tranny and getting it rebuilt. When we did pull it out, opened the box for a looksee and found the plates were stuffed. Problem solvered for about 3K......
Just joined the GU club... Happy days !
