Intermittent Transmission Issue?
|
|
|
1997 Saturn SL, five speed. About 140k miles, bought it used with about 68k, has never really given me any grief. Got about two feet of snow last night, cleaned the driveway out and went for a ride to see how everyone else made out. I got to a point in the road and decided to turn back by pulling a U Turn. I pulled forward, stopped. Tried to put her in reverse, required a little effort (has been "sticky" trying to get in R or 1 every so often). All of a sudden, it's like shifting in water, no resistance. No R. So I fuddle around a bit with the gear shift, 1 and 2 have no resistance. Try R again, there it is. Back up. Now need to go forward, and again, like shifting in water, no 1 and 2, but I do have 3. So drive the mile home starting in 3. Pull n the driveway, slid down further than I wanted. Shift to R just fine, have reverse. Shift to 1 fine, have first.
Thoughts? Anything I could do from inside the car, way too much snow to slide under her!

A good place to start would be inspecting the shift cables' connections at the transmission and at the gear shift lever assembly. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

Thanks. I assume I can check cables at the shift gear assembly inside the car? It's front wheel drive so maybe I can pop the hood and see where the cables go to the tranny. Will report back what I find. Pretty scary yesterday when it felt like I had lost connection to all gears for a bit. Yikes!

Yup. pulled the console out and a small plastic bushing that goes over the eyelet and the shift cable had broken off. Tried to glue it together, but it just broke again. So I have it wrapped together with wire and electrical tape until I can get it to the garage. Thank you for your help! Much appreciated.
