[Auto Addict]

Mrs AA's beloved clit auto.

Will 'creep' in reverse, but not in any of the forward gears until you depress the accelerator.

Drives OK and changes gear OK.

Any ideas?

[JamesV6CDX]

ATF and level ok?

[Auto Addict]

If your still coming up on Friday perhaps you could help me check please.

Its a Renault auto box......nuff said.

It doesn't sound right to me, I suspect it only creeps in reverse because its a lower gear.

[Danny]

probably worth checking out but dont worry unless you have to

a completely different car, but my brother's lexus is the same, and is the norm..

[Auto Addict]

When you select reverse you can feel it engage, but not in any of the forward gears.

Put your foot on the accelerator though, and off it goes.

[Danny]

so its not underperforming?

have you searched any clit forums? if there are any!

To be honest, the only forum that is worth its name is this one - of course  

 The rover one is not too bad but a bit hit and miss. The rest are abysmal and seem to be aimed at boy racers, modifying etc etc and your chances of diagnosis or mechanical assistance is limited.

In the pre-ECU era there was an adjustment to ensure that the car creeps when on plane but stops at slight incline. But this probably went away with Idle Mixture Screws and dizzys.

Don't have an answer, but if the car goes, let it be... perhaps check the ATF level to be safe.

I assume it did, but now doesnt?  :-/

If so, perhaps time to flog it, before the box goes completely and get Mrs AA a nice little corsa auto  

[Auto Addict]

Well, it was terminal, wouldn't drive in any of the forward gears today, booked in to be reconditioned.
