Hi I am new to this site so please be gentle.....I have a 03 vogue 30ltr diesal and the trans failsafe program has appeared on the dash and the car sticks in one gear I assume 4th....this remains like this till you switch off but comes back on as you start off again.....It's been to a local garage which said it was due to low oil in the transfer box due to a leak...so leak was repaired and shifter was bench tested to make sure it was working ok which they say it was.....£300 later drove car home and fault came back so I assume it wasn't that so £300 lighter and no closer to fixing problem could anyone help as garage is saying they don't know what it could be now.. Thanks in advance
Transfer failsafe program. Please help

Transfer box will not cause that, gearbox/torque convertor failure will.
How many miles has it done? When was the auto box oil and filter last changed?
Gearbox life expectancy is about 80K miles, some go a bit longer.
Diagnostics may tell you something.

If you purchased from a dealer, take it back pronto.
