As above VCDS will show this as a stored fault if that's the reason.
Don't drive it far in limp mode as it puts extra strain on the box.

Thanks guys,
i also thought it was in limp mode but all gears engage in drive. It drives normaly still shifting smoothly enough through all gears!
I have a scan tool coming in the post so i will see how i get on with that.
Thanks for the info and i will do some reasearch on the f125.
If i was to dissconnect the battery for 15mins would this reset the fault as its not in limp mode as such as all gears work?
Thanks again
James
