Hi,
v3.1

We are looking at site preview, we notice that if you preview in 'Admin view' it works, but if you use your customised normal site view it fails.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Nope, just me being dumb... I used a page_layout_section.tpl for the main section and had the pagelayout.tpl as the catchall.. i.e. page error, this page would then wait three seconds and bounce you to the home page.
I found that if i do this, the preview function within admin does not work as it seems to use a different section from the one your in, to display the page.
To solve the problem i removed the section_layout and replace the code in pagelayout. I don't get the nice page not found message, but i get previews, which is what i needed.

I'll need to do some tests with this for sites that have many section displays.....
