The seller mentioned that it always pulls away in second (missing first completely) and won't engage fourth gear (even when the drivetrain has warmed sufficiently). I know that there were specific problems with the earlier gearboxes, what do you recommend?
My technical skills are basic/intermediate and I would really appreciate any and all advice.

Well first things first Rob  Ensure that the Manual button on the shifter is not on, "Manual' light on the dash.
Try selecting 1st with the shifter, see if it will take off in 1st.
