Hi just got back off holiday thought id chance my arm and repost this , basically asking has any one heard of this before ?? , im hoping iv just been unlucky , and its not a g 50 reoccuring problem , ironicly only the weekend before, partly the way it drives ( im getting more used to it now ) and partly looking at the box numbers/ letters it has a lsd fitted smile and then the leaver thing happens frown cheers for any ideas ,

Sorry, not heard of this happening before. Can't see it as being a stressed component so guess it's just a random failure?
