First think make sure the Transmission Fluid level is full... When was the transmission last service? Also, have you tried changing the transmission fluids and filter? I would try these things before any expensive repairs are done...
There clearly is a problem with your transmission
it will drive but when in reverse it wont move
I am having the same problem on my 94. It will go into drive but that is it.
park,reverse,neutral,drive,low2,and low1
you have a problem in your torque converter or transmission pump
When we have this problem, we turn the ignition off and shift into neutral, restart the engine and it can then be shifted into drive or reverse.
The same problem with my Lincoln town car. When disassembled the transmission, it was evident that the reverse piston did not move, "valve body" can not reverse the piston to move. All valves tested by documentation. I can not understand the problem!
Park , Reverse , Neutral , Drive , Low
It might be a problem with your transmission because not all mx6's stall when you put it in drive or reverse.
Could be low on transmission fluid. If so you have a heck-of-an oil leak.
what is the problem when the car will not go in drive or reverse? and the transmission fluid is still full
Park, reverse, neutral, Drive and low
