Went out on a 350mile cruise on Sunday with my friends .. unfortunatly my monte didn't make it back home.
I might have overused the Kick-Down in all the Tunnels - all of the sudden i realize that the Monte is only driving in 2nd.
At around 25mph i shiftet in to Neutral - i was still able to accelerate
Came to a Stop an shiftet throu all the gears.
P - Car stops/Wont Move - still, it felt like a gear had been engaged
R - Car moves Forward
N - Car moves Forward
D - Car moves Forward
L1 - Car moves Forward
L2 - Car moves Forward
Don't ask me why, but i drove the car to the nearest gas station in "R" .. it shifted perfectly in to second gear but the 3rd was gone.
After letting it cool down a bit and checking the Transmission Fluid - ( the tissue i wiped the dipstick on was a little black at the frist wipe,
but there was still enough Fluid in the Transmission.)
i decided driving it 140miles home in 2nd gear with about 30mph, but as i started, the car didn't even shift in to second.
Thats when i called ADAC (AAA) and went on home with a rental car. The monte will be with me in about 2 weeks .. lets hope its nothing to serious.
if someone had a similar problem I'm all ears
