Hmm - strange - mine was either utterly normal or would be all red lights on the DIS. When it does that, it sticks itself in 3rd gear and feels very sluggish at low speed, for obvious reasons!
Mine did occasionally do some other weird stuff, like fail to change gear at all, unless I cycled the ignition so could be related to the failing switch or lack of recent use.
Mine had a wonky climate panel when I bought it in the depths of last winter, but has been absolutely fine in regular use.
If yours does go into limp when getting it moving in the morning, then pull over and cycle the ignition before you continue your journey. Assuming all you then have to do is stick it in D it should function perfectly.
Be worth clearing all the fault codes and checking if there's anything else box-related going on. Mine had a shed load of stored faults, but most must've been ancient as none have come back since they were cleared!
