After a long run my scenic with automatic transmission came to a halt with all warning dashboard lights glaring at me indicating stop . I had to be rescued by Green Flag who towed me to the nearest garage but will not be looked at till Monday. Has anyone had any problems with their automatic gearboxes as i am worried about cost or could this be simply an electronic fault.Previously the car had travelled 400 miles that day without any warning of impending disaster but fortunately I was only 10 miles from home

What year and engine size is it? And why for you think it's the gearbox?

thanks for your reply and query. I feel a bit of a fraud since garage (Renault dealer) ran a check then reset the ecu and problem solved. So not an expensive outcome even though I was anticipating doom and gloom with a large bill!!!
