Do you have the diesel with the powershift auto? I've found ours reluctant to change up at times, really annoying!

What happens if you move the selector to manual changes?

You probably should get someone to check for fault codes. If it changes OK in manual mode, then maybe something is wrong with the road speed sensor.

Just a wild guess, modern autos are complicated!

What year is it? I think we've all assumed that you have a Mk 4.
