I'm also still having trouble cracking this one,
Yesterday I woke the car up out of winter hibernation, battery reset, a quick boost on the battery before starting her up.
The issue that I've had before comes back from when I replaced one of the EV pipes after it has split, losing all the hydraulic fluid. Upon replacing this with a new one and filling up with new fluid the car would engage into 1st and then bite on the clutch, it wouldn't then go back into neutral so I just turned it off. With the engine on and back in neutral the F1 pump seemed to prime every 8 seconds, at this point we started again, bled the whole system again and again, adjusting the bypass screw until the pump didn't prime for 2 minutes which seemed good. Now with the engine off and no access to an SD reader, I cycled through the gears, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 but not able to get to 6 before jumping back to N, also have a hard time getting into R, it takes a while for it to get into 1st (usually 2 or 3 taps of the paddle). I did this so many times yesterday that the car wouldn't start. Battery Dead.
Maybe this is the next port of call. A new battery and a PIS set up.
