Check the fluids and if all good take it for a drive and give it the berries. Should go like the clappers. The auto box needs checking when hot though but it's not very accessible. Same side as engine oil but next to the bulk head.
3 speed and overdrive (button on gear selector).
I love mine

Hi,
If it's got a tow-bar ,try the box when engine cold at light throttle 1 > 2 upshift, they can be a bit slow / harsh, try it in normal & sport!! modes seen a few with blocked oil strainers & bad clutch packs.

Yes when cold it's a bit harsh between 1 as 2 but when warm it should be silky.

Mine is a little slow on 1 to 2 upshift when cold, but soon warms up and is fine then....
