I need help please.. I forcefully climbed a muddy slipry Hill yesterday and the car stops. The reverse gear works fine, but D, D2, and L will not engage.
I called a mechanic who drained the fluid and added a new ATF but problem persists.
I need candid advice please as I did moved the car back home with reverse gear.

Seriously? You mean no body does Automatic gearbox rebuilding around you? Even here, nobody does it, I will invest my time and money into that area, and see what I can do.

do you understand what I am saying? I did not say he didn't need a new tranny, I only asked a question, nobody around you in the whole of Lagos does rebuilding of Automatic trannies, especially for small cars? it is a question, here that I am, I only know people who rebuild trannies but for heavy duty applications only, ie trucks, I was planning to invest time and money into that, and acquire that knowledge, because I have some spoilt trannies lying around.

Nigerians and comprehension problem na like 5 and 6.

Start with a physical check. Get under the vehicle and inspect the transmission sump. Make sure it is not dented. When you select a forward gear, do you feel any engagement?

Oil change does not fix problems.

It was checked physically, no dent, filter removed and serviced before new ATF gear oil poured.
No engagement apart from the reverse gear.
Mechanics around me has no scanner. Planning to get one that has, to come check

Location matters... in IB....you need to have like 55 to 60k for Fairly used.

How long did you drive on the bad road? Try to run a scan first sha.

Forcefully? Then you might have had the clutches and brake drums worn out soo badly. I think this fault requires that a tech opens the base of the gearbox and do a couple of replacements. Sounds like a mechanical damage was done rather than electronic

There are competent people who build automatic transmissions, in Nigeria.

But note that the components arent produced locally, you will need to import them, at the current dollar rate the price is very prohibitive, you are advised to buy another transmission or convert to manual. grin

Camry is very easy to convert to manual, thats ur best bet. wink
