fuzyfrog 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2009 (edited) I was not far from home today when the car decided it doesn't want to come out of second. So i coasted home and it just refuses to get out of gear. Any recommendations on anything to try or somewhere in chch i can take it. Edited May 24, 2009 by fuzyfrog Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark 178 Report post Posted May 24, 2009 Your car's a manual isn't it dude? Could be a broken shifter linkage or something? Best to limp it to a garage to get it checked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fuzyfrog 0 Report post Posted May 25, 2009 No its manual that was the whole reason i got it. Its going to the garage tomorrow and im hoping it is just a linkage or something not hugely expensive. Have to fix the leaking power steering as well and then it should be all good. Still even with this is quickly becoming the favorite car ive owned.
