Well, it didn't stay fixed......;-(
Seems it's some sort of 'startup' fault.
The red lights/ limp mode thing either happens at the first gear change as you move off after starting the engine.
Or else the trip is completely normal.
If the fault is absent, you can drive for hours normally, but the next startup might bring the lights on, with a thump followed by limp mode.
If you start and leave it in tip- first gear- it never comes.
Also, I can start and reverse for as long as I like.
Baffled.
The fault is clearly associated with that first change up- but not all the time.
