 Hello again everyone i typed something on google asmorning and i might of found my prob with my gearbox i found the info on the old omega forum someone called proz (omega lord) but he put up the same code answer as what mine says the exactly the same (mif request from transmission) thats what mine is saying so on wednesday im going to buy a cam sensor from vauxhall then fingers crossed. Plz take alook at the link its half way down and has no picture so finally it will all be sorted after 3 weeks of head scratching.

Well done fella, sounds like you might be onto a winner.

Right, do NOT spend any more money, and do not randomly change parts until tthe problem has been properly diagnosed.  Its unlikely to be the cam sensor, as you are not getting a P0340

Your previous description is it starts OK, then suffers massive slip (similar to clutch slip), at which point it bangs into 3rd, and locks out non essential gearbox capability?

You need the gearbox ecu read for codes - the p0700 just means check the TCM for fault codes. Though I suspect the gearbox code is "Incorrect Ratio". However, it may be more useful.



Whilst you may get lucky on randomly changing parts, its far more likely that you will confuse the issue further.

Hi ya.

Yer it starts and drives lovely no bangs no whin from gear box nice and quite but when you put it in 1st manually it gets the bite then just revs like it has came out of gear. If you clink on that link above he had same prob and same code (mil request from transmission) same as what mine says he replaced cam sensor and the fault was sorted.

I was thinking faulty gearbox ecu but would that make a diffrence and also how could i fine the fault for 100% every were ive been they cant give 100% also were would the gearbox ecu. Thanks mate

I'll repeat myself for the last time. You need to get TCM read.

If you are trying to guess what the fault is, I would suggest that pissing into a force 9 headwind will be more productive.

And no, its to a faulty TCM.
