hi
new member here so be gentle!
i had a discovery 8 yrs ago so ive played with LR's before.
so here is the question...im going to look at an 04 freelander with auto trans tomorrow. 91000 miles, NC car so no rust.
its $700 but only reverse gear is working.
what do y'all have to say could be the issue.
i am a mechanic and have tools.
im hoping something like a tcm or solonoid

The LR3 has a common problem where the shifter linkage on the transmission gets crusty and wont let the car shift into drive. Does it shift into drive and just not move (but showing a D on the dashboard), or will the linkage not let you get into drive?
