hi guys. been using the misses 93 200tdi while i been working on mine fitting new bearings and stub axle.
anyway this morning as i was heading off to go get my parts i got a couple of roads away then i was unable to get the motor into 2nd and 4th gears. so i pulled over and switched it off had a wiggle about and tried again.
yep still only had 1st / 3rd / and 5th gear to drive. so i thought i would pul over again and try reverse. now the car will only go into reverse or neutral. had to drive all the way home backwards (give you a neck ache lol )
now hers is off the road until i can find out whas wrong.
anyone got any idears before i look at replacing a gearbox,
good news is mines back on the road now after a lot of messing around

i had this problem on my 300 and found out that it was the h plate on the top of the selector that had brocken had this repaird and job done

is it possible to get to with the box still in the car, ive been told to remove the centre console and remove the top cover and see if anything adrift.

found the problem,, part of the H plate had snapped off and jamed unerneath the gearstick,
not sure if the part thats snapped off is important but it all works ok now so will just refit the rubber cover and interior trim,
