this is the same engine and gearbox found in peugeots, (i used to work for peugeot ) gearbox solinoid valves are the ussal fault, especial if the oil is not changed every 40k. there is two solinoids, and to be honest, if this is the fault, you are better off changing both, as they fail due to dirty/over heated oil
