Just thought of posting on the same thread.
This particular carina suddenly stopped starting. Not even a click. First thought it’s something to do with the starter motor. But when the power given straight to the engine it started moving, moved forward in every position... even in neutral and reverse. Gear leaver (A/T) feels really slack. Is this something minor?? Or the gear box is messed? It looks like the car is running on one gear, which could be the reason car doesn’t start the normal way. Advice plz...
