I’ve seen a small meet in bucks on here. Every 6 weeks or so. Not too far from you guys. Not made it myself yet. I’m over in east herts. Search for ‘bucks’ and you’ll find it!
It was when the gearbox was replaced that these faults occurred. I think to sort the problem was fairly easy and certainly didn’t have to change the whole gearbox
I thought it would be something in the gear stick mechanism but the lotus tech said it was in the gearbox. Kind of made sense as that was what they had changed. So the new box was faulty or a lead not plugged in. But the dealer did want the car for 3 days but then sorted it after 1. They were...

An update. Gearbox seized!!! Thought I would have felt or heard that. The dealer says because of a problem with the linkage two gears were selected that caused the seizure. Anyway new gearbox supplied and dealer fitting over Easter. Excellent service in getting the car recovered and fixed with...
I can get into reverse and back to neutral but won’t move back to the right almost as if the reverse select is not releasing. Not sure how it works and have now gad a look at trying to get at it but didn’t want to risk damaging any of the trim. Only picked it up yesterday so I guess it’s going...
