Yule have to wait & see - just the one time we don’t want photo’sFestive log?
I'm suspecting mine might actually have a fault Doesn't seem to want to rev and the dreaded lack of power too. ATF level ok, engine oil perfect level too.Indeed, I've noticed mine lugging a higher gear for longer recently.
Disconnected the battery for a couple of hours, then went on a longer run. Problem still present. Seems like it’s in some sort of limp mode but no error on the dash or display. It won’t kick down and there’s no real power. Engine seems to rev smoothly without issue whilst in park. I guess without NDS2 it’s all guesswork at this stage.I'm suspecting mine might actually have a fault Doesn't seem to want to rev and the dreaded lack of power too.

If it were in limp mode it would be restricted to 2500 rpm or thereabouts and the EML would light up. A diagnostic session would seem to be the next step.Disconnected the battery for a couple of hours, then went on a longer run. Problem still present.

Is this not the second one with in a week with same issueIf it were in limp mode it would be restricted to 2500 rpm or thereabouts and the EML would light up. A diagnostic session would seem to be the next step.
It's the cold, it's stuck itself in snow mode.Is this not the second one with in a week with same issue
Snow mode doesn’t stop speed does it , thought it meant pull away in 2nd and go into top earlier, I’ve only drove it a couple of times in snow mode ( and not at speed ) so haven’t really used itIt's the cold, it's stuck itself in snow mode.
The choice is between expensive, and really expensive for the ATF!Now think about changing the ATF, hmmm not sure what oil to use........any ideas?
