My 2007 WQ Fiesta automatic has done about 70k. I'm now getting (intermittently) a Transmission Warning Light flashing and the car going into limp mode. It can happen within a minute of starting, or the first red light, or even after a while driving.

If I turn off, restart, the car will run normally for a day, a week, ?

But if I keep the aircon on, it doesn't happen.

The auto transmission fluid is at max when just stopped, and at but not below min when running hot. Do I need to top this up? Is the only way via the transmission dipstick?

Car has been to my local Ford dealer, but they said it was just a calibration issue. Their "repair" hasn't changed things.

Thanks for reading. Chris.
