| Transmission Error message |
|
Hi,
Can anyone here help?
Quite often when I start up, first thing in the morning, I get the message "Transmission Fault. Caution traction reduced" (or something like that) which then goes away after about 3 seconds.
Is this something to worry about?
Thanks.

it's just low battery voltage on engine cranking, goes away once the alternator has brought the system voltage up.
Would be an idea to give the battery a charge (with the right kind of charger for a lead-calcium battery though) or give it a good long run so the alternator can do it's stuff

Ok, thanks.
I do a lot of short journeys so that's probably the issue. I'll take her out for a decent run over the weekend.
Cheers
