Manual mode , still won't down change into second from third. Will now not bypass second into first. Now the left hand dash LCD is flashingin third. Flick it over to full Auto and the D now flashes on and off.Drives ok in auto mode but seems to hunt from 3rd to fourth gear. lights flashing.going up through the gears no dramas,side ways in second @ 90ks.Turn off the ignition and restart all all is good . Box warm etc. This is doing my head in.Does anyone on here actually know something about these boxes.Thought not.Leading edge come on MOFOS Looks like I am off to the Stooge Hunters Club House for further analysis.Great car, just over the gremlins.Is a pan and filter replacement likely to do make any difference??For mine 3rd gear is rooted. Hope this is not a record The car is a an absolute weapon, I just want to be able to down change at will, either that or make all the farking roads straight Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/46942-zf-issue/page/2/#findComment-699608 Share on other sites More sharing options...
