Dear Sir/Madam,

I have a Vauxhall Zafira, Reg number RO06 AVV with automatic transmission gearbox. The automatic gearbox is not working properly now. It works fine in 1st and 2nd gear but when it went to 2nd gear, it skip the 3rd and went into 4th gear straight away and always stuck at 4th gear.

Please can you let me know that does the gearbox need to be replaced or it could also be the electronic computer problem in the car system? Or it could be both?

Many thanks for your help and advice.

Kind regards,

Mr Sia

You need to get a scan done to check for trouble codes. For such symptoms, it usually is due to a control or sensor fault and the diagnostic trouble codes would provide an idea what could be wrong.
