How is your ATF condition?

Yes your car hasa serous issue in the Transmission.

Q: when, if ever did you last CHANGE THE ATF?

Yea your tranny has a red colored fluid which by now is black and the poor thing is having NDE's (Near Death Experiences)

By this time it is possible that you may have had irreparable damage to the gear box but start with a complete flush and refill with the strainer. :wacko:

Yup as everyone mentioned, when was the last time you did a gearbox oil change? I believe its better to start with a oil flush and see how it works.. If it didnt sort your prob, then you can show this to a professional gearbox repairing mechanic and do the needful repairs/ go for a recon gearbox.. If im not mistaken, these model gearboxes are fairly cheap.. Once when i was hunting for cars, came across with one of these and the owner told me he replaced the gearbox with a recon and cost him around 15-25k (if im not mistaken)

Guys Ive had the same issue at my Ford laser BJ5, Chandana at Nilwala Garage Fixed it, it will cost you about 35k.. I suggest you go and meet him before it gets worse. Cheers! See the other thread that I posted above.
