It WORKED! It WORKED!! I have REVERSE!!!
So, I go to pick up the baby girl today, full of heat, fresh oil change, found the block heater. I ask if the car can be put up on the rack so I can just check, for my own curiosity, and they did so for me.
I get under the car and look around the tranny, think i see something that might be it and stick my hand in the greasy mess. I twist the bolt (nothing had to be removed to get to it) and it's REALLY lose! Might have been 5 full turns until it stopped turning. I show the mechanic who is standing by with the light watching.. We bring her down, I wash my hands and we all cross our fingers. Someone opens the bay door and HE BACKS HER OUT OF THE BAY!!! And drives her right to the tranny shop NEXT DOOR to tell the tranny guy that a girl fixed the tranny and YES, HER CAR DOES HAVE THE REVERSE BAND ADJUSTMENT! I jumped, I screamed with joy and I am still smiling. Thank you Rick, you are DA MAN! So, add me to the list of miracle reverse fixes! AND I swear it goes faster backward now than forward! Also, the shifting from 1 to 2 is smooth again. It used to be rather rough but now it's back to be almost un-noticable. Is this part of the RBA or is it because of the new amp? (Isn't part of he tranny run on vacuum?) Thanks again, you all rock my MB world!
