I had a couple of gear clashes last night, anybody else had this?
Situation: I was in a 30 limit, doing 30. Gearbox was in D5. As I approached the change of speed limit I manually selected 4 using the paddle, but maintained my speed at 30. Then, as I passed the limit sign I selected 3 and was rewarded with a 'crunch' as it shifted down - like if you mess up a manual gear change. It went into gear ok though. When I reached the next 30 limit I recreated the scenario and it happened again. However during normal 'D' operation it shifts ok and I subsequently shifted up and down a few times and it never happened again.
Any experience?
