let us begin: Basically, the last time I drove the Volvo, I drove it backwards only. And yes, some local law enforcement were VERY upset with me over this. And if you saw a white Volvo brick driving backwards on Quincy Shore Dr on Sunday night, to Southern Artery, right outside their police station.. hi.
The best way to describe it is this:
The last time I drove the car, it would go REVERSE in gears 1,2 and R. (I have no idea how weird that is, but it did. Faster in R, but would engage Reverse with shifter stalk in 1 and 2. I was too busy driving backwards to video it. I also got stuck in another snowbank, due to.. driving backwards. At first.)
A member of the Volvo forum, in bold, typed: More likely your shifter cables are either broken or misaligned
What do you think? DEAD trans, sell the car? (It is for sale, ATM.) Or.. check BASIC things first? (Sam's said "Dead trans" so idk)
Also, price of rebuild/new trans install? That car is .. great... still... ?
