Our '82 380SL hasn't been driven for about 8 months.
During a normal start up, shifted into reverse and from that point on it will not come out of reverse, yet the shifter will go into any position with almost no resistance

I checked the linkage, and it seems to be intact.
The fluid level is right and it smells and looks good.

I bought the Mo 107 service manual CD but it doesn't really
incorporate transmission issues.

Can someone point me in the right direction?
(even if it's to the dealership).
I'm curious to know what to expect.

Thanks, Buck
