Hi all, my Leon Mk3 2018 Automatic seems to have an issue changing gear.
It doesn't seem to remember what driving mode it was previously in, so for example, if I turned the car off while in sports mode, for example, it will start again with sports mode selected in the menu, but the icon on the dash will show it in D for drive, not S for sport. So that's the first thing I notice.
On top of this, it can hit 5000-6000RPM in first and second and third gears, and not change gear for a good 5-6 seconds (which is a long time when the car is screaming along in 1st gear) before it automatically changes gear. I've tried changing throttle position - easing off, pressing down - makes no difference. I can often resolve this if I switch mode, say, back to normal mode then back to sport mode again. It does this regardless of mode, but being in sports mode it seems to behave a little better than Eco/Comfort/Normal modes.
Gears 4,5,6 and 7 all seem to work as normal, and it has no problems selecting the right gear depending on load - so it will drop down to the correct gear if putting foot down, for example.
Any thoughts?
