The backstory to this is was that I was messing around using low range gears recently, and a day or so later when I fired it up I got some awful gear meshing sound when trying to pull away. It fixed itself once I turned everything off and ensured the low range gears was fully in the right slot...

Oh god you’re right. I’m an idiot. I just got it into my head that this was something new. Thanks for responding so civilly rather than saying (correctly) “you pillock!” :)
