Tranny problems??

Got this when I started my car after work today. Simply turning the car off and back on again fixed the problem.

This is what happened when I put my foot flat... it was like 1st gear was missing..

This is how it was after I turned the car back on again.. normal as per usual..

And if you're a little scared about which side of the road i'm driving on, where I come from we drive on the left instead

My recent modifications to the car only include a MEVI. Thats the only serious work i've done so far. Maybe I screwed something up in the process. The ecu isn't throwing back codes, though I haven't put it into diagnostics mode yet.

Any ideas peeps?

Just for a recap. I did an ecu diagnosis and it pulled back the code "5,4".

This apparently means "Automatic Transmission Control Unit Signal to ECU"

Anyone seen this before?
