Hello. We were driving 90km/h on a motorway and exited to a 60km/h road, car peeped, said gearbox fault and went into limp mode. Upon restarting it, it drives normally. We're on a road trip across Europe and driving for 5-6 hours daily with breaks. The car in question is a RR P38 automatic 2.5 diesel 1999.
Does anyone know what could cause this? We still have many days to drive before reaching our destination. Currently in Poland, it's friday and I really don't feel like getting stuck here to do some major gearbox work.
Gearbox is full of oil, battery is good, the weather is not hot at all (10C). I have noticed in the past months that the gearbox makes a slight grinding noise upon reversing, don't know if that's related. I'll have it looked at as soon as we reach our destination! Any ideas though? Thanks!
