PDK Gearbox Issues

The following has been received from a member who is having gearbox issues on his 4S. Has anyone else had a similar issue, have any suggestions or can recommend someone to speak to?

-----------------------

I purchased my 4S 6 months ago with 100k plus mileage - swapped in against 2012 V6 Diesel, wanted V8 - have had much remedial work carried out by specialist garage locally (all marques, low to high value, incl. Aston, Jaguar, Lotus, Bentley, Porsche etc...).

Most recently they suggested car would need replacement rear disc brakes/pads, plus new rocker cover gaskets at some point in the future - I said to go-ahead now rather than wait. Work carried out after parts delay (10 days) - work completed seven days ago. Service guy phoned to say job finished and test drive went well. As I was about to leave to collect the car, was phoned to say not to come as unable to move car from parking area as would not engage forward gears.

Since then they have attempted diagnostics without clear resolution. Just spoken with garage who advise diagnostics suggest unclear issue with gearbox and that hand- brake has gone into "service mode". They are stuck not knowing how to proceed next. In the meantime I have no car!

All useful advice welcome, with my guy saying he would be happy to talk problem over with anyone able to help.

-------------------------

Grateful for any advice.
