HI everyone at last the Zed is on the road had to replace the box in the end as time taken was getting to be more than a replacement box. Went for my first drive yesterday. Went to Southampton and back. Man are these cars quick ! Thanks to everyone for your help and advice. Cheers Rod

Thanks I will bear it in mind, hope I dont need one ??????

Hi Yea I did check it with the engine running hot & cold and on a level surface, its really bizzare sympton, once the cold idler has let the revs drop down to about 700 the transmission engages and moves away but only in first gear. my garage is going to run the diagnosrtics given by legrath, I will keep you all informed of the outcome. Cheers Rod

Thanks for the link Rod

Hi Thanks for info I have found a couple of gearboxes and the price is really good under £400 with a warranty, so I suppose at the worst its not going to cost a fortune My garage still thinks its electrical ???? Rod

Hi Thanks for the reply that was the first thing I went for There is no smell of burnt oil and the level is ok. ROD

Hi can anyone help, I have just bought my first Zed and the autobox appears to have a problem. when I put it into D when cold there is no drive and the engine revs upto around 1500/2000 rpm and when the revs drop off the car will creep forward. but as soon as it wants to change up to 2nd it just looses the drive. When the car is warm there is no drive at all. Is it electrical or is it internal gearbox. Any help will be welcomed Cheers Rod PS I did no there was a fault when I bought it
