Once warm, pull shifter into reverse and the engine begins misfiring and the engine light comes on. so I shut off the engine . restart it and try again. result vary by the day!! goes in D fine after 2 attempts but reverse is always playing up continuously now and its getting worse this has been happening over the last month. Now I will admit I have not had the box serviced in awhile ( that's slackness on my part,I'll admit it) has anyone experienced this from their BTR 4 spd any ideas?cheers in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had this problem not to long ago in my 04 xr6t was the inlet manifold gasket on cylinder 1 started out as nothing and got worse that's a video of my car doing it. if yours is the same its a possibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
