Despite the finding that all was well on the diagnostic check I would suggest the auto could be in need of a service. The computer, after all, can't assess the quality of the shifts.

IT'S really too early to speculate on the reliability of the present-model vans. I would be surprised if you needed a van as big as the Sprinter or Ducato to transport your 13-year-old daughter.
