It drops back into gear with a clunk at 60kmh. I put a de-carbon spray through and this helped as it does the same but once it goes back to 60 you can then drive to 100kph, but is revving as still in 4th gear. Dealer replaced the switch inhibitor and the rsj valve? Now suggesting the gearbox torque converter but have also said we may need new tranny or even have you thought about a new car! Silly me, I thought a 2011 car was still pretty new!
Question edited to fix the formatting and lack of spaces between words.
Find a local auto auto electrician and connect it to a professional grade scan tool computer. The reason for the limp mode will be stated as codes. The codes tell you the fix.
I expect the dealer knows that as a cheaply made Korean car the best fix is to just buy a new one. They are really a disposable commodity at 8 years old.

The code you are reading is a bit misleading. The gear ratio is not incorrect, the slipping in 4th gear is what the computer is seeing and reading it that way.
Unless you can find a competent shop to do your rebuild, your only other option is to have the shop you are using stop rebuilding the one you have and get you another complete unit. There could be a problem with your original, such as slight porosity in the case, permitting a pressure drop which they are not seeing. (or they are repeating the same mistake each time they rebuild it!

MCARTER859: check the connections where the transmission harness and engine room harness come together. Unplug them and reconnect them I have run into more than one case with the same symptoms as yours which ended up being nothing more than poor connections.

Rebuilt gearbox probably... unfortunately!
If the HOLD light in the in strument cluster is flashing at you, it is giving you a transmission diagnostic code (like a kind of Morse Code). A transmission specialist or a Mazda Dealer will be able to read this code and plug their computer into the cars computer, and tell you what is wrong.

you are probably low on transmission fluid.
top it off by the dipstick while running in park. and you should be fine if it reads full, then your fluid needs to be changed or your filter is clogged. replace as necessary.if the problem continues after the fluid and filter have been changed then its time to have the transmission replaced or services.
good luck.

It seems oil level is low in your gearbox, and it most likely leaking from adapter bushing ( where cable is connected to gearbox).
You need to replace seals or complete bushing and correct oil level.
Better if you visit your mechanic.
