depends on who and where , used box tend t be cheaper, but you need to ascertain fault first

Taken it for a little test drive and noticed it works and responds like it should in low gear...when in high it's sluggish...slow off mark and does what I said above with reverse.
Did the same thing when I started it....in high...in reverse foot flat down and staying at idle rev...nothing kicked in until I put in park and revs shot up since foot on excelerator...the straight in to reverse but took about 3 seconds to slowly reverse until revs picked up.
Did you get to the bottom of this i am having the same problems after fresh gear oil will only select reverse when in low and in high just revs as in neutrel

Did yours show the M+S lights? Mine doesn’t show them at all...was wondering if yours was flashing or anything like that
Yes lights flashing and locked in 3rd gear
