Re: Gear changes
Several hard brake tests this morning.
Nothing to add. No faults with gear changes in either auto mode or with paddle shifting.
I guess it’s Just Christine being awkward.

Glad your box is doing just fine
If you can't go to the track, bring the track to you.

Re: Gear changes
Thanks Mav.
Yes I am very happy with the gearbox being ok.
I didn’t really expect a gearbox issue as all gear changes on the paddles were rapid and smooth.
For whatever the reason when in auto shifting she wouldn’t shift from second to third gear.
I will monitor it and see how it goes.

Steve,
Hope all is well.
Personally I use the paddles mostly, no idea if theres any logic behind it, but I feel more comfortable although its just fine in auto too.

Re: Gear changes

Re: Gear changes
I must be the odd one out. I prefer auto mode for general day to day driving.
On occasion I use the paddles to give her a blow out without exceeding the speed limits.
Whether in auto or using the paddles the gear changes are very rapid and smooth.

Re: Gear changes
Hardly ever use the paddles myself. Feels all kinds of odd.

Re: Gear changes
Same, im not much of a paddle flicker on the general drive, however when an overtake presents itself...

Re: Gear changes
Just driven 100 miles this morning. Car has behaved beautifully.
So hopefully it was just a one off.
But will definitely get the F125 switch replaced at next opportunity.
