lol Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Went to change the kick down cable on my 300tdi discovery changed the cable new filter etc all back together however no matter what gear I select it's trying to drive forwards even in park however in park the gearbox does lock it from moving but you can see the wheels trying to turn? Is this a bleeding issue or have I done something wrong? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 What have you tampered with? If all was working normally and you only fiddled with the kick down cable, it should be related to that cable or something dislodged while working on it, limiting the possibilities.

lol Posted June 3, 2017 Author Share Posted June 3, 2017 Loos like the linkage under the valve block wasn't aligned properly locking it into first gear..I'll finish it tomorrow and hopefully update with good news 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a bleeding issue, and something that needs to be fixed! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lol Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 Having never bled an auto gearbox before I didn't know if I was missing a trick in how to bleed the system,turns out it was just I missed the slot on the valve block body to align the selector...you live and learn I guess 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
