Terra incognito for sure, but...

If i look around for all that info, could it be repaired/replaced still in the car?

Reason i'm wondering, is that i have a whole other tranny, from an 84 wagon, so if it requires removal of the tranny and major work beyond my skill set, putting in the other tranny would be the way to go.

If it is something that can be done working thru the oil pan area, it would make sense to look all that up, and any links to that info would be useful.

Thanks again

See post #10, second section. If both are 722.3, or both are 722.4, then a direct swap.

OK. So i guess it is not repairable in the car?

Tried it again, and it definitely goes smoothly from Park to Reverse, but not in the other direction, Drive to Reverse.

Still wondering if the repair or replacement of the selector valve causing the Reverse anomaly can be accomplished thru the pan (when removed), or pulling of the transmission would be necessary.

Also, would it cause further damage to drive for a while by stopping, and re-starting in park to get to reverse.

The valve body can be removed with trans installed. You might want to flip your spare trans over, remove the pan, and introduce yourself.

The shut off & restart gambit should not cause any damage.
