Issues...

Post by SchumieFan »

Ok... so i finally got my GPX Tip-tronic back off the panel beater (long story :oops: ) who incedently did a sh*t job and my whole front is just wrong...

anyway...

it got a new battery installed as well and the 80A fuse under the hood replaced because it had blown quote "some time ago" a) anyone know what this fuse is for?

b) since getting it back, when the engine is cold/ hasnt been started for a few hours and i slow at the traffic lights it pops out of gear and doesnt re-engage first gear till about 3500/4000 revs... its always just stayed in first when im stopped at the lights as all autos do so when you release the foot brake it creeps forward...

anyone know whats causing this... whether i should take it to a auto transmission place and get it looked at or whether its related to the fuse or is it a simple problem that i can just reset ie the ECU...

all help muchly appreciated.

Mike.
