Sigh, it's always nice when you spouse says, dear the car did a funny
thing on me today,
so she discovered the hard way, well nothing got damaged or killed,
that when she stop the
92 300TDt on the downside of a slight hill by our gate and put it
into park, started to get out, the car
proceed to roll backwards on her.
She of course was not happy about this.
Also I noticed the transmission would not at idle hold it at a stop
on a slight hill without
starting to roll backward. Not that I use the tranny to hold it
there, rather the time between
taking foot off brake and over to accelerator is enough to make it
start rolling
So anyone know what would need to be fixed? I'll assume one is the
parking pawl, either is not engaging right
either toasted, or linkage?
PS we did change the transmission fluid 2 months ago, no one said
anything about metal, nasties or other things in the pan...
