Hopefully this has solved the issue, but any more clues on what it could be if not that?

If the plenum drains are partially blocked then water levels can get high when it rains and then subside over time.


The E on the dashboard may be the clue to what happened - ECM got wet and then lost communication with the automatic gearbox.


If it happens again best get it checked out - Brian does a very fast and very thorough turn around by post for the ECM if it is faulty.
