hey guys just got the vl going. starts fine, runs good just wont select gear. t bar is connected to the auto and is moving the selector fine however nothing. engine doesnt even drop revs when a gear is selected. its full of fluid and all connected up right but no go. Is she buggered?

mine does the same thing atm i think my diff is knackered??? dunno if that helps? jack it up and spin one wheel at the rear the opposite wheel should spin the opposite way to the one ur spinning...

I think my trans is stuffed. unless anyone else can tell me if its different, before i go buy another tranny this week

Maybe this can help... Is the selector rod thing on the valve body in the correct position relative to the tbar, and is it moving with the tbar? EDIT:If you give me your email I can send you the Auto Manual, it's 17mb so a bit big to upload here.

Yeah as far as I know that's the only way to do it. As I've only owned a car for 6 months and 8 days I'm sure you have much more knowledge than me haha Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

If you have a spare auto, try swapping the valve body maybe, it'll cost like $30 in fluid though :/ Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i just sold my last auto. i can get one just down the road for $75 but i really cant be bothered swapping autos over, its a real pain
