If its the ZF AStronic, chances are that waters got into the clutch actuator and buggered the slow solenoid.
Theres 2 solenoids quick release/press and slow release/press, slow for manouvering and slow speed, the other for normal speed driving, if one fails the other takes over, causing horrible symptoms like yours.

For a new one from DAF was around £700. would recommend finding a breakers yard or talk to Drivetrain in Manchester, ask For Baz, or Ecodrive, who are ZF agents and carry recon parts.
