2009 HSV Clubsport/Vauxhall VXR8
Hi all
I have a 2009 HSV Clubsport in the UK. Over here sold as a Vauxhall VXR8. 6.2L auto LS3 engine. It has a gearbox issue in that it has a flare of revs between 3rd and 4th gear, like it finds a false neutral before engaging 4th. It also has a flare of revs, almost like an auto blip, coming down the 'box between 4th and 3rd. Is this a know issue with a known solution? Is it gearbox oil level? It doesn't have the issue on full throttle just on regular throttle openings. Any advice?
Cheers

Yep, flaring is a common issue with these gearboxes... I'd start with the fluid level as it might be low...
