pharkit Donating Members 251 Member For: 16y 9m 19d Gender: Male Posted 02/03/16 11:07 AM Share Posted 02/03/16 11:07 AM I drove home tonight and parked car in driveway. I had it park and when I went to put it in reverse it went into limp mode and now is stuck on 'neutral'. The shifter slides up and down with no resistance and obviously car wont move. Im looking online that it could be the shifter cable? Does anyone have any ideas on this? bf xr6t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know nothing about fixing cars but I will call my mate to help me. Is this video sort of what you're talking about?

I'm stating the obvious, but you should start by getting the codes for the box read... If you download the Forscan program and couple that to an elm device you should be able to see the errors...and possibly reset them depending on the issue Otherswise a decent tranny place should be able to read the codes and repair accordingly...

michaelevans73 New Member 2 Member For: 8y 1m 20d Posted 05/03/16 12:37 AM Share Posted 05/03/16 12:37 AM Hi, I have an FG 2008 xr6 turbo. ZF six speed locks into third gear either in normal or performance mode. Nobody seems to know what it is. I turn the engine off and restart and fault clears for several days sometimes. Took it to Ford in Bayswater Victoria who charged me $168.00 and advised me that they could not fault it. 'Customer to monitor'.....Great. Can anyone out there please tell me what the problem might be please?. Nobody, even Ford cannot tell me.. Oh, the small screen pops up with a graphic of a gear and says 'tansmission fault' with a small triangle containing the number one. Thank You Mike Evans.
