Hi, would anyone out there have any idea of the top of their heads of where I need to start looking for the following problem.
I've got a 1988 landy 90 with a 200tdi in it and have been really clever and managed to get it stuck in a big wet muddy ditch, after a lot of stressing and reving (whilst in reverse) I managed to get some movement and almost got it out but whilst reving like a lunatic it jumped out of gear and I now can't get reverse, first or second. I did manage to get it out the ditch by SIMPLY driving forwards in 3rd whilst in 4WD mode (why didn't I just do that to start with?) Anyway as I say I now can't get the above gears, it mostly won't go in to start with but when it occasionaly does it jumps straight back out of them. As I say third, forth and fith are fine. If anyone has any idea of what could be the problem and where to start looking then that would be great. To top it all this has happened in the middle of rural France and I somehow need to try and get it back home to UK by christmas. Thanks in anticipation, Mark
