I had a very similar thing, and it was my accelerator pedal that had gone faulty. It wouldn't rev in or out of gear. The only way I could move was in low range and command shift, then into neutral then high range and command shift again...

Low power and poor throttle response .
Gearbox pivot has been done as part of routine maintenance .
I would think the throttle pedal would log a fault code would it not ? You're not afraid of the dark are you ?

Hoses good .
Started it this evening tickover good initially it reved up normally to about 1700 rpm then throttle response stopped and special programmes of popped up . Got a busy evening so put it inside at work on charge .so will go in early and see if theres any fresh codes .. You're not afraid of the dark are you ?

Bit of an update . Had a look at this afternoon connected diag tool and took a look at some measured values , i was suspecting maybe a failed in rage sensor hence the no codes. Well nothing out of the ordinary started it up and everything normal . Went for a drive and all good . Things dont fix themselves and im sure i will reappear. You're not afraid of the dark are you ?
