Not sure if having to much fluid in the box would cause the “ep” error and loss of drive but the gear changes are now alot smoother and tighter.
My thoughts (and hopes) are maybe being as the ep fault seemed to always happen when starting off when the engine etc is cold, maybe the extra fluid plus
cold caused extra fluid pressure in the box causing the fault.
Time will tell!!

Hope you are right, but I do remember a conversation a few years ago with one of the Longbridge Rectification Dept guys. He said if they had a car back with faulty auto transmission which was giving them grief, a Jatco engineer would tell them to bung in an extra litre of fluid as it wasn't that critical.
Good luck
