The car is an Australian delivered V6 ( 2.0 Litre ) 5 Door hatchback I "Believe" the mechanicals are the same as 4 door versions sold elsewhere in the world.

The Transmission will only hold 1st gear regardless of what forward gear is selected , There is no reverse gear at all & the engine speed does not have any effect on the problem.

Transmission Fluid is Clean & at the correct level.

The problem started out as slipping & loss of Gears whilst in drive , Loss of all drive in any gear & the finally to the present problem.

The Transmission was rebuilt by the previous owner only a few months ago , He indicated that the had a similar problem and returned the car to the Gearbox rebuilder who fixed it stating that it was some form of Electrical Fault.

Taking the car back to the Rebuilder is not an option as I have shipped the car down from interstate & the rebuilder is aprox 2,000 Kilometers away.

I have NOT tried to read off any Transmission Computer Fault codes as yet.

OK , This is my very first question , So please be gentle with me :)

Does anyone in the Telco Trade know the Differences between Version 5 and the Current Version 7 software on a Nortel / Norstar Compact ICS ?

My Current Version 5 Reads as Software version 30cqE00 NP3B in system programming ( Feature ** Config )

Are there any great worthwhile enhancements between these versions ?

Can you select between Regions A - B & C with version 7 on Feature **Startup ? ( I need to be able to select Region B )

The best answer gets 10 points and also my Thank You :)
