Unlikely to be her fault unless she hits the selector unknowingly
could be loose selection control or possible TCM problem
best place to start is having the fault codes read and proceed from there

I had the same problem. My car would shut off without any warning, I changed my Main Relay located under the dash, right below the change slot on the left hand side. I have not had a problem since. The price at Napa Auto parts runs about $68.00. This should fix your problem.

SOURCE: Ran out of Diesel, now 'injector fault' light on. '05 Modus

there is air in the fuel line causing the fuel not get to the injectors. you will have to open the fuel ine AT the injectors to bleed out the air while someone turns the key as if starting the car.

The transmission has gone bad and all I can say is that you need to replace it.

Good luck.

SOURCE: p0420 fault code

disconnecting the battery only for a few moments won't do anything the PCM has a back up battery inside to keep codes stored therefore you have to disconnect the battery anywhere from 1 to 2 hrs.

Why is my Pajero Activ 2010 diesel going into Limp Mode? It drives beautifully then all of a sudden goes into limp mode but no fault codes recorded; no engine warning lights.

I'm guessing electrical fault or electronic component failure (camshaft position sensor, etc). I've seen similar before on another vehicle I owned years ago.

I have a 1998 holden jackaroo SE automatic petrol car and it starts,reverse but when u put it in drive it doesn't drive if you press on the winter drive it goes so what's causing the problem?

Get a trained person to check the transmission. If it goes backwards but only goes forward in winter mode then there is a trans fault because auto's generally pull away in 2nd gear in winter mode to reduce wheelspin.

Renault Modis automatic - computer problems

hi i have found on modus the computer said one thing and the fault was completely different so it's best to go to a good auto electrician with a diagnostic machine to find the fault, don't go to a reno dealer as they will charge you a fortune.
hope this help's.
