Title: Please help! Gearbox problem
Post by: PhilRich on 16 June 2014, 19:45:35
Hi de hi Oofers :)
My 2002 Desmond estate has lost all forward drive, but I can still engage Reverse :o
The indicator lights on the gearlever console all behave as they should & I don't have either the EML or Emissions telltale showing on the Dash. Plugging in my A.N.Other code reader gave a P0700 (4) Present, and it returned when cleared. I have checked the gearbox fluid level and condition of the ATF & both are ok. Any ideas please? Many thanks, Phil. :y

Been looking at your codes :y

Here is a print out of mine from 2 year ago.

In order to get rid of them all i gave the throttle body/breathers the full clean up (maintenance guide) and put a Brand new VX cam sensor in it.

This is also a 2.2

Fix the known engine ones, and go from there. Just check ABS whilst there
