  1. 700-4
Hello all. I have a 2017 700-4 with 1200 miles on it. Recently when accelerating hard the dash display flashes from D to - for a split second, the engine revs for that split second and then it goes back to D and runs fine. No funny noises or anything else out of the ordinary. Took it to the dealer and had the 1200 mile service completed and had them investigate the issue and they couldn’t get it to act up. In addition to the normal service they adjusted the clutches. Of course once I get it home it has the same issue. Could this be an electrical issue, possibly a sensor. What do you guys think?

I think its the gear position sensor causing the computer to release the 3rd gear clutch. Both of mine did it at around 5,000 miles. Mine would run ok until I ran it a bit above 40 mph then the problem would occur again.
