Tranny Problem

Post by msbmx3 »

I got a 94rs dohc. Tranny seems to run fine but the problem is in the shifter. Weather has been nice here so i took the car out of hibernation yesterday and drove it to work today. When i got to work (about 10 miles), the shifter was hard to get out of drive to put back into park. Like it was stuck in drive. So when i was going home i tried to take it out of drive at a light and it did the same thing but this time when i put it back into drive the hold light blinked for 30 seconds then stopped. I was planning on getting the tranny serviced this or next week. Is this signs of a tranny goin bad, could a service heal it, or just a linkage problem??
Thanks in advance

I seem to have that problem also. Doesn't happen all the time for me though, like a few times every couple of weeks. I guess I never gave it much thought since it's done that to me with other cars I've owned. I don't have any advice but just thought I'd let you know we're in the same boat. Good luck. :P
