Hello, I am from Perth and I recently purchased a C2 which I am really enjoying. I would like to know if anyone has had any experience with the snow mode function of the sensodrive gearbox.
The owners manual says that snow mode comes on when the car senses slippery conditions however my car has gone into snow mode quite a few times now for no particular reason while I am in manual mode. Has anyone else experienced this or have an explanation?
Also, has anyone noticed that when they are driving (in manual or auto) and slowing almost to a stop (for example, when approaching a roundabout) the gearbox seems to get "confused" and wont engage any gear at all leaving you essentially free wheeling in traffic. Eventually after some time it engages, usually with a thump because I have reached high revs
Any advise on these points would be great. I do love my car but these "problems" tend to make me a little nervous about driving in traffic. I haven't taken the car in for it's first service yet but seeing as though C2s are not common over here, it would be great to have the benefit of others experience
Thanks for your help, soafie
