I took off yesterday morning with the temp about 37. The "D" on my shift indicator began to blink and didn't stop until the engine was warm. Then I could use the Tiptronic mode. The transmission
never acted funny in any way or fashion.
My backup lights (now) come on when I put the car in Drive.
The dealer found no error codes in the computer -- and has recommended that I consider having the tranny switch replaced -- at a healthy cost. He's not sure that's the problem -- he thinks the switch at the gear-shift and the tranny switch are not communicating properly.
I'm driving a 1999 Boxster with a factory rebuilt engine with 12K on it and a replaced RMS with 1K on it.
I'm new to this board and did a quick search before posting this inquiry.
Any thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
