Hi all,

I keep getting this warning light pop up on my dash. Has happened 4 times in the past 2 weeks, usually first thing in the morning. As soon as it appears it either resets straight away, or resets once the engine is restarted (rebooted) but the gears lurch around every time which makes me nervous about the pending icey roads we'll soon have.

It's a Ford Kuga Titanium X 2011 - so I don't think it should suffer such a fault being relatively new as it's only done 60k miles.

I spoke to the Ford garage the other day and they did the well worn 'ooooh...never heard of that problem before.....' line, but looking on here people seem to have experienced this with other models of Ford.

Does any one have any experiences or help they can share with me please?

Cheers all!

Not sure I have seen that particular issue reported. Normally this means a sensor is misbehaving, it could be the transmission fluid sensor, or it could be a problem in the torque converter.

Have you managed to get the error codes scanned yet?

Hi, I have just had the same message come on my dash, my car is a ford Galaxy 2015 but it only has 45,500miles on clock; i had this experience once before and the person who took the care ( Ford Top Man) said when he took the car out it was okay; now its happened again Fords will be contacted again in the morning.

Glad i found this post. 

Hello, my wife has a 66 Kuga Titanium  X Auto.

Been having problems recently, stability warning light, transmission limited function warning light, sudden loss of power, sudden over revving into red then dropping back down, she's very worried about he safety. 

AA recovered car today and took it to Ford dealership telling her it was unsafe to drive.

Does anyone have any good advice please?

Thanks

i have the same issue and my mechanic showed me that in scan it shows that its a silhouette or something like that that is faulty 

anyone has any update on this problem?

My 1.5 diesel automatic Kuga has has an issue recently where it felt like it was going to stall on pulling away. Took it into the garage on Thursday and they couldn't find anything wrong. Yesterday while driving home from a day out with the wife the transmission warning came on saying refer to manual and we lost gears. AA recovered us and I tried the gears again to park at the garage, no forward and a very jumpy reverse. Anyone have any ideas please?
