If I disconnect the battery and let the computer relearn it will drive fine for a day or two but then gos back to the same.
The engine is running fine. I pulled the TCU codes and came up with code 25 Engine Torque Control signal. To the best of my knowledge this is the code for the crankshaft/camshaft sensors but I have no idea what there test range is or if they are even the problem.
P.S. the car has shifted hard at very low speeds (2-6mph range) from 1st to 2nd gear for the last year or so.

Any help that can be given would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks, Paul
Hi mate, I would check for a loose plug to the TCU and down to the gear box at the rear of the engine on top of the bellhousing.
The code 25 is from the TCU finding a fault, when trying to signal the ECU to turn the power down. That is why you are having the hard shifts.
There could be a few troubles caused by a loose TCU plug.

Harvey.
