    So here’s the update. Got it back from the shop today, Have been told they’ve changed the TCM as it was the cause of all the latest faults. Apparently also found a small piece of metal that was supposedly causing a gear position sensor issue. So I’m told that it’s now all ok but to keep an eye on it. Hopefully that’s it but time will tell.

    The TCM = Transmission Contol Module which is the Mechatronics. It's the electronic brain that controls the transmission.

    So thats your 4th Mechatronic now. Lets hope you got a good one this time.

    Hmm I was led to believe they are 2 separate components. I’m hoping this is the end of the saga, my dad wants we to get rid of it even though it just cost more that $2500 to repair it.
