    Only had my 360 a couple of weeks but occasionally the paddleshift gears jump from 1st to neutral while at traffic lights.
    Then doesn't go back into 1st so have to use reverse then 1st.
    Very embarrassing if in outside lane.
    Any suggestions please
    John

    There are some threads about this that it are worth looking for in the 360 section but the shift out of first is automatic if the hold is very long - do you have a clutch reading from your purchase ? % wear & PIS as there are issues related to that that could be coming into play

    Thanks for that but I've found that gearbox jumps from 1st to neutral after a length of time but this was only after a couple of seconds and wouldn't let me back into 1st at all.
    After panicking for a split second, I found that I could go into neutral then back into 1st.
    Rather embarrassing with a string of cars stuck behind me!

    Sorry, but how can brake lights affect the gearbox?

    Hi John,

    Did you find the solution to this problem on your car?

    I have a slightly similar issue which as cost a small fortune to investigate with no solution yet.

    Thanks,
    Richard

    Hope it's a switch or similar, but I think it's likely a worn clutch, get a reading, may be an easy (but expensive) fix
