Broken down, should be on way to ferry (13th Sep)

Just about to hook up the caravan and I start the D3 and get the following error and suspension not lifting.


Batt is at 12.4v but I have changed it but still the same.

This error is dated June but its the only one showing. If I remove the fuse for the EPB I then get that error but that has today's date.

When I get in the D3 and start it while in "P", I get "Transmission Fault" up on the dash. If I put my foot on the brake and release the EPB, it will release but come back on again once I take my hand away from the EPB switch.

If I hold the EPB switch down, the brake will release but I get the warning "Apply HAndbrake".

If I start the car in P and then select D, I can't move the car as the EPB will not release, I have to turn it off first by the switch.

Once I put the car back in P, the EPB activates all by itself.

The only error I get is the following.

If there are 2 if you and you can't move car:

Get the park brake off.
And then remove the large fuse next to the battery marked (P)
To stop it re engaging.

Dont park on any hills though
And use caravan handbrake if required, but don't forget

I drove mine for about a fortnight with the fuse removed, the fuse I took out also took out the cruise control.

I managed to catch the ferry by the skin of my teeth. The issue was to do with the transfer box, in the end, to solve it I put it in neutral and pressed the High box position and then turned on the ignition and it reset. Not going to try putting it in low until I have time to fix it but its working 100% at the moment but I don't think I can use the low box.

I have a transfer box you can have for a very small sum if needed.

If works fine. It was in my RRS when i bought it. It looks as though it has had a slight leak at some point, and it has been opened to be resealed.

I replaced it with one I had lying around from a d3 when i had my torque converter replaced, so it is spare at the moment.

If you want it... Let me know.
