pragmatistm:
WelI, when the owner took the mechanic with him in the car for a long journey, he said after driving for a fairly long distance the car would get hot and it would refuse to transmit until it's parked for some time. Then the man also said it was not getting to 5th gear. Thus he diagnosed the problem to be a failing selection switch. He replaced it and did some few things (I don't know exactly as I wasn't there) and replaced the oil we put in the tranny with the said Mobil oil. The car has covered quite a large distance but I don't know exactly how much as I'm not the owner.

Pls can you direct me to the guy/mechanic/both as I have a Nissan Almera Tino who has this problem. Works fine while driving but if it stays for too long in traffic and the engine gets hot, it will not transmit again until I park it for some time or the traffic moves and I keep driving at low gear(slow speed like on manual gear 1 in slow motion) then suddenly it will begin to start transmitting and self-select to the next gear before the transmission normalizes again..
