VE INTERNATIONAL Keeps losing reverse

[TEEJAY71]

Hi Guy, I'm new here, hoping to get some insight as to what my problem is, I keep losing reverse intermittently, it's works fine if I don't park on an up hill incline and works fine if driven daily, but if l try to reverse on an up hill incline it doesn't want to reverse or if I leave it sitting for a few days it seems to lose reverse, Any ideas anyone ?

Had it serviced recently?

 

[whats up]

 

[TEEJAY71]

Yes all the levels are fine

 

[TEEJAY71]

Yes all the levels are fine

And it's always been serviced regularly

And it's always been serviced regularly

Has the transmission been serviced not the Engine

No because I thought I would get on here and see if anyone else has had this problem, before Motors try to tell me I need a new gearbox, because I know that would be a big possibility gor them to try ripping me off considering I'm a female , but I know that's not right, because if the band's were stretched it wouldn't only happen intermittently

Well I suggest you get the transmission fluid changed firstly and get the transmission shop to scan the TCM if there's any codes.

You need to start to trust the correct people and get it to an automatic service company before you do MORE damage to it that will cost you more of your hard earned.
The least it will need is a full and proper service. After that I don’t know.
Cars cost money to run and you must expect to spend money on it rather than it breaking down or stopping and really upsetting you.

search your local tranmission service centres, read the reviews and go to a good one. Not sure what you have but for comparison my 6 speed auto, full service, flush and filter kit was $390
