On my 2.0GLX Auto (AG4 transmission) there is a relay under the bonnet for the auto box -- I know that it affects the limp-home function to avoid damaging the gearbox.

You need to be a bit more detailed in what was happening

1. did it work in reverse ?

2. did you try 1 or 2 or 3 or D?

 

the gearbox on the 2.8 is ALL electronic with a number of sensors and a control box. reading between the lines this looks to be a recently purchased car are you in the AA or RAC the reason I ask is they have the computer that will talk to your vehicle electronics and should give you a idea what is wrong. With this autobox its a case of how long is a piece of string it was made far to complicated and as such will give you a heart attack with the cost of repair to the extent that I might give up the day job as a dentist and become a autobox repair man as the money looks to be far better :)
