T31 TL Diesel 6 speed auto gearboxand engine problems
Hello fellow Xtrailers, my T31 has been a wonderful piece of gear since we bought it new in 2013. But today it's being a little difficult.
Gearbox won't change up after it gets into 4th.
Gear changes feel a bit harsh, never been like this before.
MIL light comes on.
Feels like it might be in limp mode when starting off from a stop with engine not re started.
Starts off OK when engine is freshly started.
Manual gear selection sometimes works.
Any thoughts for those who know these vehicles better than I?
Cheers,
PhilD

Hi Phil,
If you go through the DIY Guides on the forum you will find the procedure on how to read the MIL codes when the MIL is on.
T31 Engine Diagnostic
At the end of the document is a link to the list of codes where you can see what the error is and report back with your findings.

Re: T31 TL Diesel 6 speed auto gearboxand engine problems
Thanks Kev, I have found a rats nest under the battery!! so I'm now wondering if it's suffered some wiring damage? A mechanic mate is coming over today with an OBD scanner so we'll hook that up and have a closer look for damage too.

Re: T31 TL Diesel 6 speed auto gearboxand engine problems
Update on my problem.
OBD scan reveals code P1525 and a couple of other faults (which I should have written down).
After we found the rats nest under the battery and removed the battery and the complex bracketing that holds the computer we could see the problem.
Wires chewed off a 2 pole sensor that sits on top of the gearbox. Off to the auto elec to get that sorted, hopefully the end of the problem.
