My wife took the Squareback to work this morning, and I got a call in the afternoon that she could suddenly no longer select first or second. She limped home (only a couple of miles), and I found that I could select reverse, third, or fourth reliably. However, if I tried to select first or second, it would catch third or fourth. It never selected a false neutral. The linkage felt a lot sloppier than it had recently. It's raining hard here, so I haven't looked underneath the car as yet, but I'm puzzled as to what the problem could be. My first thought was the coupler in the linkage had partially broken, but I can't imagine you'd be able to select reverse if this were the case. The bolt holding the 1/2 shift fork can't have backed out, or it would just select a neutral instead of first or second (so I'd think). Any guesses? __________________________________________ Yahoo!
