my car is not working in 1st gear
That would be your transmission. It may be slipping, or you may be lossing a gear. Have it checked.
on a 2000 intrigue; car does not shift into 3rd gear or 4th gear. 1st 2nd gear ok
Push the car with the clutch in, right? 2nd gear for smooth and 1st gear for most people!
If you have put it into gear and the car is not moving either your clutch is slipping or your clutch realese bearing is gone
Low stands for Low Gear or 1st gear in the transmission.(I), is one I have never seen. If you mean 1 then that is 1st gear.
If it isn't slipping it is downshifting to 3rd gear
There is no drive in a standard transmission car. In most cases you will have reverse, neutral, 1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear, 4th gear, and 5th gear.
When an automatic car jerks into fourth gear it could be the transmission. You may need transmission fluid or a new transmission. A licensed mechanic can check the car.
My 94 Pontiac grand am se quad 4 the clutch is real loose and 1st gear is slipping
A clutch does not go into gear. A clutch engages, Normally if a clutch fails to engage it is because it is worn. with a worn out clutch you are able to start the car in gear without your foot on the clutch and the car wont move. Normally before this happens you will notice what is known as a slipping clutch. A slipping clutch means that the engine is turning faster than it should to keep the car moving while in gear. once this starts to happen it does not take long for the whole show to come to a stand still.
Clutch slipping? and will probably require replacement
get to 3000 RPMs in 2nd or 3rd gear and then step on the gas hard(safely!) , If the revs go up quickly and yet he car doesn't pull hard , the clutch is slipping.
