My HS PHEV Exclusive bought new two years ago has now had its second year service and any recalls dealt with.
I don’t understand is how they are still selling this car, or allowing it back on the road after a service with the really very dangerous lag in the gearbox at around 50mph. This was raised by me on the forum shortly after I bought my car and other members confirmed they had the same experiences and concerns. I‘m retired and as such am very rarely in any hurry to go anywhere. Today when I joined the M20 from a slip road I accelerated to join the traffic in the inside lane when the gearbox lagged and the traffic came up behind me. Fortunately the power cut in again but it’s dangerous, and at a critical speed of c50mph which I would suggest is about the speed many overtake moves are happening. Are new models still having this issue please?
