Re: AM I HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS ON MY NEW JEEP???
Sounds like the shifting linkage isn't letting it go all the way into first
gear. Could it just need adjusting?

Broken synchro, can you get the seller to eat any of this? If you
have a shop fix it, you're looking two grand.

A Wrangler has no linkage, the gearshift goes right into the tranny.

Re: AM I HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS ON MY NEW JEEP???
OK. From reading your responses, it is something broken - either a
"synchro" or something else. But why does it only happen occassionaly.
From reading the posts on the link, putting all new transmissions into
jeeps did not permently fix the problem. BTW, I am NOT mechanically
inclined and I just bought the vehicle at a reputable dealer, but "as
is". I am not sure if there is a return policy on used cars or not.
Any more suggesstions or ideas?
