Oh what a bad month, now I have problem number 3 to solve, pls help. Right the beast is a 1998 2.5 DSE Auto. Had some problems earlier this year with the Gearbox XY switch, turned out to be a dirty connection on the connector plug. Gearbix been fine except for the last month ive been having difficult engaging park, it goes as far a reverse and struggled to engage park, although after a couple shunts on the selector gate she would engage. Last night was a no go, the selector runs through the range fine and what ever gear is selected is correct and corresponds with the dash display except park. She will not engage into park. Even though the leaver is in park the rangie is in fact still in reverse, the red light on the selector gate is showing as reverse with the red selector light and dash is also showing reverse. I have tried in low range and problem is same all gears correct on display except no park. Occasionally I have noticed difficulty selecting gear 1 often it she sits in gear 2 until you get a little heavy handed with the selector leaver. Help needed please, is there a linkage or something that wears or needs adjusting.
