Your hydrostatic transmission is shot!!!!! Mine did the same thing..... They are about $700-800 from the dealer!!
This issue could be caused by a problem with the transmission belt tension or a fault in the hydrostatic transmission itself. Check the belt tension and condition, and inspect the hydrostatic transmission for any damages or wear. If the issue persists, it may require professional inspection and repair.
If you mean the transmission itself shifts forward, it is because the transmission is suspended, so when the transmission is put in reverse gear the momentum will push the transmission forward. Now, if the car pulls forward when put in reverse, this means there is a transmission problem. This may just indicate the shift linkages need adjustment, or that the transmission has a major problem and needs repairing. Take it to a shop and have it checked.
PRDN stands for "Park/Reverse/Drive/Neutral," which are the different gear options found in an automatic transmission vehicle. These gears control the movement of the vehicle in different ways - park for parking, reverse for backing up, drive for moving forward, and neutral for disengaging the transmission from the engine.
truck will only go forward not in reverse does this mean the transmission is gone
A reverse idler gear in a manual transmission. It converts the reverse gears turning direction into the outputshaft to reverse its direction. The transmission can not spin clockwise when the reverse idler is engaged thus it only spins backwards not forward.
Your transmission is gone, you need to rebuild it.
Put it into reverse when moving rapidly forward.
3 forward, 1 reverse
Time for a transmission rebuild.
A Super Beetle with a manual transmission has four forward gears and one reverse. A Super Beetle with an Autostick transmission has three forward and one reverse.
If no forward or slipping forward suspect problem in the forward clutch and circuit. Reverse does not use the same applied components
Make sure transmission fluid level is correct Bad transmission pump?
