Hello everyone! I've got a problem with my 2011 T230L 90DPF 1753cc diesel 5 speed manual gearbox transit connect... it suddenly is not going into reverse gear. All the other gears engage fine and i had no weird sounds coming from the gear box before or after this started. I noticed that when i let the car roll back a bitt it does engage reverse but when i have moved forward it locks and i can not get the shifter in reverse. I also noticed that (sometimes not always) when the engine is off i can select reverse and as soon as i start the engine it locks up again. I've tried the following: dubble clutch has no effect and i've changed the transmission fluid (it was black but no filings or such) also no effect. the car has ran 164.000 km and has just got his clutch replaced around 14.500 km ago and the shifter cables have been replaced shortly after (about 1000 km after the clutch). i haven't looked at the gearbox selector yet but as it is engageing freely when i roll back and i dont have problems with first gear i dont think that that is the problem. i could only find one guy with simmilar problem on the internet but his sollusion was a clutch replacement. but as i already recently had this replaced i am at a loss... i have asked a friend of mine who is a car mechanic what he thinks it could be and he said it was most likely the synchromesh rings in the gearbox, but as i did some research i discovered that the reverse gear in this gearbox does not have synchromesh rings (Please correct me if i'm wrong!). i am not a trained car mechanic but i am a trained airplane mechanic so its not that i have no clue what i'm doing ? but i could really use some pointers in the right direction beause i'm at a loss right now.. Ohh and btw i am in hungary now and i am dutch and do not speak hungarian so as you could understand going to a mechanic is a bitt more difficult... i would love to hear what you guys think! Thanks in advance!!
