Ended up blocking it up with plastic screw plug which seems to be holding for now.
As for the ep fault, seems to happen on the odd occasion and when cold first start up.
I did replace the gear selector actuator switch a while back and that seemed to coincide with the start of the issue happening every now and then.
Switch the car off , restart and fault then clears and car runs fine.
Would the adjustment of the switch cause an “ep” fault to happened?
The adjustment is just a coincidence, pull fuse 4 from the engine bay fusebox for a couple of minutes, this will reset the gearbox ecu, see what happens then?
