Try a search. There was a thread with the same problem a few months ago. I think it ended up being the vacuum actuators were loose or buggered.

Try and have a look underneath at the transmission. You should be able to see the vacuum hoses. Check if they are loose or may have come off. From what I have seen it usually fixes it. If not it is probably the actuator.

So the vehicle no longer subject to new car warranty?

The vacuum hoses don't go to the transmission, they go to the front axle.


Easykill, curiously my NW has developed the same symptoms over the last couple of days. We've had some heavy rain recently so i suspect that a switch may have a bad connection but will have a look on the weekend. If I find the problem I'll post up here.
