we would need more info on this question there a few reasons this could happen depending on the circumstances ie bad linkage detents or loose linkage internal transmission problems ect.i could be more exact if i had more info
The car isn't necessarily shifting into neutral its just staying in a lower gear and not shifting to the next gear, check your transmission fluid.
Be sure the vacuum supply line from the engine to the transmission vacuum modulator is not disconnected.
It's not shifting into neutral, the 3rd gear "drive" band is slipping. Time for rebuild.
If your transmission is not shifting into third gear and overdrive it could be a parking pawl. This prevents the transmission from rotating.
It will not harm the transmission to skip a gear (any gear) while up shifting. You go into neutral during each shift, the transmission doesn't know which gear you came out of. The transmission only matches speed to the engine and to the wheels for the gear its in. Be careful during down shifting, you don't want to skip too far ahead and run the RPS's too high.
The 1928 to 1931 Model A Ford had a 3 speed forward and 1 speed reverse transmission with a neutral position.
Not required. In an auto transmission the gear is at its lowest when the brake is engaged and uses the same amount of fuel as in neutral. In manual transmission, I have seen few people shifting to neutral but again it is not required, you may put it at the lowest gear and keep your brake and clutch engaged while at stop light.
Several things can cause your transmission to be stuck in second gear. Broken or detached shifting linkage will cause the problem. A broken shifting for in the transmission can also cause the problem.
your transmission needs servicing or a rebuild. take it to a good transmission shop
It is on top of the transmission where the gear shift cable goes into the housing of the transaxle.
Bad spark plug wires affect many areas of your vehicle. However, gear shifting in an automatic transmission is not one of them.
Yes. Transmission in park or in gear, and transfer case in neutral.Yes. Transmission in park or in gear, and transfer case in neutral.
