Parked in Tesco's, get back in to car, start it and it was stuck in gear and I couldnt move the gear stick anywhere other than the reverse position (which made the car drive foward?). Anyway, it was stuck in 3rd I think.
Could this be an engine mount issue, as I know the nearside front mount can cause selection probs.....or do you reckon I have a mullered box?
I am extremely experienced with these cars, but before I get up and fiddle with it tomorrow I want to know other peoples opinions.
Also, what way would you try and get it out of gear?
I really can't be arsd to take the box out/split box or anything.
Merci!
