The Mrs finally passed her test but only on an auto license. It's been hard work trying to find a reasonable automatic for reasonable money. She decided she wanted a Mini so we've ended up with a 2002 cooper. The one with the CVT gearbox. Trouble is, i can't seem to shift it out of sport mode (SD on the dash). Want it in "D" for normal driving. Also, if push the selector over to the right and get it into manual mode, when i push it back to the left, it wont go back into Auto mode. Have to turn it off and back on again.

Could be a dodgy connector not registering the selector positions but i'm not sure. Hope i've not cocked up and bought a lemon. She'll go mad with me. Not told her yet!

Just thought i'd ask first before i go patrolling the mini forums.
