hi all, this is my first post so be gentle with me. I have a 2002 td6 which when doing a lot of stop start driving goes into trans failsafe. I checked the code and it shows a gear 3 monitor fault but strangely if I drive it in manual mode it works fine. i'm hoping somebody might be able to help me out with this problem as I am looking to sell the car and it's the only thing wrong with it.

very common problem, do a search  ... - .- -.

hi stan
done the search thing, felt like I was going round in circles, was just hoping someone could give me a definitive answer for my particular problem. I am assuming the gearbox is ok, as it works fine in manual mode, so could it simply be an electrical problem?
