u can buy a code reader from ebat for about £30 not the best but does the job very well :afro:
I must warn you I'm about as decisive as a 5 yr old in a sweet shop!!  :grin:

Yeah im 99% that yours will be the green one but thay do two
 so might be best to go to the dealers??

The engine light wont come on for this fault, You can leave the code but best
 to clear it when you fit the new part TBH, Get yourself a cheap code reader - £30 - most places
 will charge £15 to clear off a code!!!

right come to work and its still grumpy going into second. Feels like its catching the teeth on a cog when i change into second, i am not booting it and being gentle and it still does it. Like i say 15 mins along the drive it starts to get better, so seems to be when the cars cold also i keep it outside. Any one got any thoughts?
