Check your Power Steering Fluid level. The same fluid is used for power steering and the HICAS system.

oh right pmsl, i'll have a look at that then, thanks

not a problem. it's the small round pot on the drivers side of the engine. (Just incase you didnt know ;) )

I agree, check your power steering fluid. And the button on the side of the auto shifter:

 

Hold: pulls off in 2nd gear (good for wet or icy conditions) and holds the box in higher gear for longer i believe so it wont change down so quickly if you put your foot down.

 

Power: what it says on the tin.

 

As an aside you also have an O/D button on the side of the auto gear stick you will feel quite a difference with it depressed or not, the box changes at higher rpm and she feels like a different beast.

oh right, great stuff, thanks,

thought ide add as ive seem a few people talk about this now, but my speedo dont work either, would my first place to start be getting a new speed sensor
