Occasionally i get a gearbox malfunction error and it scrolls from park to N on the dash and flashes, it seems to do this every 6 months or so and a quick clear on VCDS normally fixes it.
Today it wouldn't clear, tried power cycling and clearing both faults from Engine ECU and Gearbox ECU and it came straight back.
Preformed a calibration on the gear selector which failed because it asked me to move shifter to park and i couldn't because it locked its self due to the fault (power cycling unlocked it but VCDS cancelled due to safety reason)

The fault then auto cleared?! It works normally again, so bizzare
